It is believed the ride, which started with a beautiful view, stopped all of a sudden and left all victims stranded midway through the ride, waiting for help to arrive after only 15 minutes.

"We literally got stuck midway through the ride for 15 minutes under heavy rain, freezing cold, and couldn't even open our eyes. We just keep shouting for help nonstop.

"After 15 minutes of fear and torture, the rain finally stopped. There was also a child in the first row who kept on crying too.

"New fear officially unlocked, first and worst experience theme park ride ever," the captions in the video read.

The victim expressed their utmost disappointment in the management's slow response in lending help and making sure the safety of its customers.

"They could have immediately sent people to give us an umbrella when they noticed there were technical issues, but nothing happened for 15 minutes; we were left freezing and clueless," the victim said in the video.
