Watch: Six Flags Mexico riders stranded midair during storm, caught in heavy rain

Some riders were stuck and left dangling in midair at an amusement park in Mexico during a storm. 

The ordeal unfolded at Six Flags Mexico on August 18.

Rider Omar Hernández Medrano filmed video showing his view from the Sky Screamer ride, also known as Supergirl Sky Flight, which stalled, leaving him and other passengers pelted with wind and rain.  

"We went up Supergirl and as it was underway it started to rain and quickly got worse. As we were high up, with the rain and the ride in motion, it stopped and we were stuck at the top for ten minutes in heavy rain, " Hernández told Storyful.

The ride is known to take passengers 243 feet above ground, according to the park's website. 

Park officials said the storm halted several rides, and evacuation protocols were followed, according to a statement. 

"Unfortunately, the storm intensified during the evacuation process, creating some uncomfortable moments for our visitors. Park staff attended to all visitors and no incidents were reported. Sky Screamer resumed normal operations shortly after," Six Flags Mexico said.
