Eight people were rescued from atop the Silver Bullet roller-coaster at Frontier City Amusement Park in Oklahoma City.

Emergency personnel worked to rescue the roller-coaster’s passengers, who were stranded atop the amusement park ride after it stopped functioning.

Breaking news from Canada and around the world sent to your email, as it happens.

On its website, Frontier City bills the roller-coaster as “like being shot from a cannon as you rocket through this high-speed steel looping coaster.”

The ride, which was introduced by the park in 1986, is Oklahoma’s tallest roller-coaster reaching heights of up to 25 metres.
