Two camels made a grand escape Tuesday after escaping their enclosure and roaming freely around a roller coaster park, video shows.
The incident occurred at Cedar Point, an amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio, on June 11. Footage of the incident shows the camels trotting along the park's sidewalks.
“That guy almost died,” an adult man is heard saying off-camera.
“The camels are out!” a boy laughed.

“How did they get out? They're all jumping in the pens over there,” observed one adult.
Attendee Justin Garcia told Storyful that he noticed the large animals after leaving an attraction.
Garcia, who was visiting the amusement park with his family, said his group was almost run over by the camels.

It is unclear how the camels escaped. Tony Clark, a spokesperson for the amusement park, told 3News that no attendees were injured during the situation.
“[The camels] “We decided to take an unplanned walk right outside their house at The Barnyard, our 'petting zoo' area on Frontier Trail, but they quickly returned,” he said.
