Narrative:

Upon landing; the aircraft had landed and was braking; the hydraulics and brakes momentarily failed. The pilots were both jamming in the brakes to stop the aircraft from rolling off the runway. We came to a jerking stop inches from the runway. The brakes and hydraulics then resumed working. No injuries were reported from passengers or crew. Only surprise from the passengers. The captain made an announcement that a slight problem had occurred with the aircraft; and for everyone's safety we would be towed to the gate. My fellow flight attendant and I then assessed the cabin for any injured passengers. One emergency vehicle was positioned at the rear of the aircraft for safety. We waited for the tug to reach the aircraft and were towed to the gate. Roughly a 40 minute delay was caused; but no injuries. The passengers were all relatively calm and compliant.
