Passengers are being escorted off a major theme park ride after it stopped at its highest possible point.

Terrified thrillseekers are being helped to safety from the Oblivion ride at Alton Towers in Staffordshire.

The Oblivion ride was opened in March 1998 and features a drop of 180ft with a top speed of 68mph.

It is just yards away from the Smiler rollercoaster - where two teenage girls each lost a leg and 14 others were injured in June 2015.

I went on it with my sister once though and her shoulder guard thing failed and I had to quite literally hold her into it while facing an almost vertical drop

They stop for safety reasons, not for break down. But I wouldn't like to be stuck on Oblivion, that sh*t's scary!
