Two Cuban women became the stars of a both comical and intense moment at an amusement park, as their video quickly went viral on TikTok, racking up thousands of views and endless laughter from users.
In the clip shared by user @lulycmg, the two young women are seen boarding an extreme ride that propels them skyward at high speed. The dramatic reaction of one of them has become the primary reason for the video's viral spread: with her eyes shut tight and overwhelmed with fear, she began to shout out loud, uttering phrases like, "Oh Lord, help me. Oh, Lord. Lord Jesus Christ, Almighty Father. I beg you, Lord, forgive me. Oh Lord, what is this? Get us down!"
Meanwhile, her companion couldn't stop laughing at her friend's panic, creating a humorous contrast that has been key to the video's popularity. Comments on TikTok came quickly, with some users claiming they laughed until they cried, while others related to the fear these types of rides can invoke.
The authenticity, Cuban accent, and unfiltered reactions of the stars have contributed to the clip's success, adding to the ever-growing list of viral moments emerging from digital platforms that showcase the charm and spontaneity of Cubans, no matter where they are.
