A power outage at Universal Studios Japan in Osaka on Friday afternoon left a total of 35 people stranded on top of a rollercoaster, The Japan Times reported.

Riders were left near the highest point on the tracks – about 140 feet – of the "Hollywood Dream – The Ride" rollercoaster for over two hours, WBAL TV said. Some of the riders, per Sky News, were left hanging upside down for that length of time.

Staff at the theme park evacuated the riders through an emergency passageway, according to the Asahi Television Broadcasting Corporation.

A video of the incident, shared by Sky News, shows park attendants escorting the riders to safety.

No injuries were reported, and the cause of the outage is being investigated, The Japan Times said.

Last month, videos emerged of passengers stranded on top of the Las Vegas Strip's High Roller observation wheel after it malfunctioned.

Passengers were suspended up to 550 feet in the air for around 90 minutes, Insider previously reported.
