NextImg:TikToker goes viral after being stuck inside Malaysian water slide

It was more of a Stuck n Slide.

A Malaysian man has gone viral after posting a video of himself getting stuck in a waterslide earlier this month.

The TikTok, which has been viewed nearly 43 million times, shows the man — who goes by Jami — with his arms crossed as the trap door he’s standing on opens and shoots him into the plastic tunnel.

While the dizzying footage initially shows Jami traversing the slide with ease, the man is later seen abruptly stopping in his tracks about halfway down the slide before once again picking up speed.

Coming to another stop, the alarmed-looking waterpark goer attempted to crawl through the cramped space while yelling for help.

Thankfully, his cries were heard as the top portion of the slide was ripped open by an employee of the park who came to save the man.

According to the TikTok, the incident occurred at the Penang Escape Theme Park located in the Southwest Penang Island District in Malaysia.

The Post reached out to the park and Jami for comment

Several other TikTokers expressed their fear over being confined in such a small space.

“My claustrophobia has awakened,” commented one user.

“You can see he was panicking,” said a second person.

“New fear unlocked,” chimed in a third.

One user claimed that the man’s pants were the cause of his unexpected stops.

“Bro seriously wore track pants to a water park,” commented a user to which Jami responded, “lesson learned.”

This is not the first time a person had to be evacuated from a ride.

Last month a passenger on a California rollercoaster made an entire ride evacuate because they decided that they didn’t want to be on the ride anymore.

“On Friday, May 26 at approximately 4:15 p.m. the ride Silver Bullet stopped with guests onboard,” a spokesperson for Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, California said. “A guest indicated they wanted to get off the attraction, park personnel responded immediately, and all guests onboard exited safely following standard exiting procedure.”

“The safety and security of our guests and associates is Knott’s Berry Farm’s top priority,” said the spokesperson who said the ride was functioning normally half an hour later.
