Horrifying moment theme park revellers are pelted by mystery substance from ride – but what is it?

Horrified theme park goers were pelted with a mystery substance at Happy Valley Chengdu.

As the thrill seekers looked up towards the terrifying ride which they were about to board, a brownish matter fell from the cloudy sky, showering those at the front of the queue. 

The surprised guests of the theme park in Sichuan Province looked around in disgust, before turning their heads upwards at the still-swinging ride.

Footage from the off-putting incident, which occurred July 25, has since been posted online. 

Thrill seekers lining up for the ride were showered by the matter while the rapidly swinging ride continued

Sharing it to his 43,6000 TikTok followers, user Dennis Teo, captioned the video: ‘S*** from the sky.’

The post has since raked in 34.6 million views and has prompted hundreds of thousands of comments from horrified users – all eager to know what the mysterious substance actually was. 

While it has not been confirmed what the substance was, comments suggested it was flying faeces

Meanwhile, other users though the substance must be vomit, caused by the rapidly swinging rollercoaster.  

One person wrote: ‘Isn’t it more likely that it was puke??’, while another agreed: ‘Isn’t it more likely that it was puke.’

Others were more disturbed by the sight, pointing out the slight squelching sound that can be heard as the substance hits the ground. 

A third person wrote: ‘New fear has been unlocked.’

While a fourth commented: ‘Imagine somebody yawning right below.’ 

Another asked: ‘Why are they all so calm?’ towards the seemingly blasé theme-park goers in the queue.

The shocked theme park visitors looked around in disgust, attempting to figure out where the substance had come from 

According to its website, the theme park in Jinniu District, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, China has six roller coasters. 

The ride has been identified as the Gyro Swing, and appears to be one of the park’s more intense rides. 

According to China Educational Tours the ride is 17 metres high and can hold up to 30 visitors at a time.   

It is described as a ‘thrilling high-altitude ride,’ bound to accelerate heart rates with ‘crazy speed and exaggerated swing range.’ 

The website reads: ‘[The ride] is popular worldwide and is a must choose for visitors who enjoy excitement.’
