THIS was the haunting moment thrillseekers were stuck upside down for around half an hour after an amusement park ride broke down.
Footage from TikTok showed riders desperately screaming for help as they were hanging inverted in the faulty attraction in Ontario, Canada.
The clip captured the terrified passengers stuck high up at the Wonderland Lumberjack ride, which seemed to have stopped mid-loop.
"Is everyone doing OK up there?" someone asks from the ground.
They immediately get several "no" replies.
"They're upside down.
"Oh my God. No way," the clip continues.
The stuck thrillseekers then yell: "Help me!"
The park's maintenance team responded to the incident and managed to bring all passengers down and assessed by first aid staff.
But before their arrival, despair and tension were mounting as dozens of onlookers watched the horror scene in shock.
