00:00Screaming
00:06At first glance, it looks like a chill ride
00:12that's like a boat ride.
00:14Screaming
00:20But when it starts to roar and you're in the air,
00:25you'll be called by all the saints.
00:30It's like I'm about to throw up.
00:33My head hurts and I'm dizzy.
00:35Screaming
00:38This is called a Pirate Ship Ride,
00:41one of the most famous rides in a fair in Liloan, Southern Leyte.
00:48Screaming
00:56But the thrill of finding a passenger
01:00who went home to Deluvio in the middle of the ride,
01:06the woman who rode it,
01:08all of a sudden,
01:11She's coming back!
01:13She's frozen!
01:15What's her name again?
01:17I don't know!
01:19She's coming back!
01:21She's coming back!
01:23She's frozen!
01:25Screaming
01:28The thrill of going to the Chill
01:31Screaming
01:34She's coming back!
01:37The fairgoers in Liloan, Southern Leyte,
01:42when a woman who lost consciousness
01:47and her whole body was frozen,
01:50what happened to her?
01:53The operator immediately stopped the ride.
01:59While the stand-by spectators were watching,
02:01the woman who lost consciousness was rescued.
02:04The woman was already frozen.
02:06Her arms and legs couldn't move.
02:09We took her to the hospital.
02:13We were worried about what would happen to her.
02:16She might die.
02:19The victim, who is known as Marie-Chris,
02:21is the third child of Leonita.
02:24Someone suddenly called
02:27and said that Marie-Chris died.
02:29The story of one of Marie-Chris' companions,
02:32Ressa Jane,
02:33they were still excited that night
02:35especially since it was their first time riding a ride.
02:38Marie-Chris said,
02:40let's just stay here because it's beautiful.
02:42We thought that it's just weak.
02:44It's just swaying.
02:45We're going home, guys.
02:51In fact,
02:52a few seconds before the pirate ship ride started,
02:55they made a video.
02:57When we sat down, I asked her,
02:59is there a back out here?
03:01Marie-Chris told me,
03:02don't back out.
03:03Marie-Chris was the most excited.
03:09Oh, my God!
03:12Before leaving,
03:13Ressa Jane was given a sign of the cross.
03:16While one of their friends was feeling scared,
03:19they just let it go with a scream.
03:29But when they were all in the air,
03:32they noticed that Marie-Chris suddenly fainted.
03:36Oh, my God!
03:37Oh, my God!
03:38Oh, my God!
03:39Oh, my God!
03:40Oh, my God!
03:41Oh, my God!
03:42Oh, my God!
03:43Oh, my God!
03:47The one in front of us,
03:48they were screaming,
03:49your friend is dead.
03:51When I looked back,
03:52she was really dead.
03:53She's fainting.
03:57Marie-Chris was trying to wake up her companions,
04:01but she was not feeling sleepy anymore.
04:04I told the guard,
04:05stop it,
04:06because someone is already dead.
04:09She's fainting.
04:10Oh, my God!
04:15Her body looked like she was going to die.
04:18The woman was struggling,
04:20her arms and legs were not moving.
04:23The passengers were screaming,
04:24we went up to the pirates.
04:31Marie-Chris was immediately ordered
04:33by Vicente to go downstairs
04:34to be rushed to the hospital.
04:36We got on the patrol,
04:38we went to the hospital,
04:39they brought us there.
04:42Leonita was in the hospital
04:44where her child was admitted.
04:48She passed away.
04:53By the mercy of God,
04:55she regained consciousness.
04:58Most probably,
04:59what we call hyperventilation is also happening.
05:02When a person is hyperventilating,
05:04their breathing is too fast,
05:06the carbon dioxide will fall.
05:08The result can be a seizure
05:11and death.
05:12Worst case scenario,
05:13if the patient dies,
05:14it can be an accident,
05:15he can get hurt,
05:16he can get injured.
05:17If there's a heart problem,
05:18he might get a heart attack,
05:19BP will rise,
05:20he might get a stroke.
05:21When you see a person
05:23who is breathing too fast,
05:25you can also give him a blanket
05:26or a paper bag.
05:27You will cover the mouth and nose
05:30so that the carbon dioxide
05:31that fell too much
05:32can rise again
05:33and normalize.
05:38Even now,
05:39Marie-Chris
05:40doesn't remember what happened.
05:42I blacked out.
05:44After that,
05:45I didn't know
05:46where I was going.
05:48I watched the videos.
05:50I watched them here
05:51and there.
05:55For those who posted on social media,
05:58I just want to clarify
06:00that I'm still alive.
06:02Even then,
06:03Marie-Chris
06:04would often collapse.
06:06This started when I was in high school.
06:08After I graduated from college,
06:10it got worse.
06:11I introduced myself
06:13and then
06:14this is where I blacked out.
06:16In her story,
06:17a few minutes
06:18before the ride started,
06:20she wanted to back out.
06:22When the ride started,
06:24my hands became stiff.
06:27After that,
06:28all of my body became stiff.
06:30I hyperventilated.
06:40But in the end,
06:41everything
06:42I wanted to cough.
06:44What surrounded me
06:45was blackout.
06:46The last thing I remember
06:48is that I hid my cell phone
06:50because we were recording
06:51for a reaction.
06:52I hid it in my pocket
06:53so that it wouldn't fall.
06:55Authorities remind us
06:57that it's important
06:58to follow the ride's instructions
07:00to avoid accidents
07:02or unexpected events.
07:05In the area,
07:06there's a place
07:07where it's not allowed
07:08to ride.
07:09There are sick people.
07:10We, the villagers,
07:11watched over this place
07:13every night.
07:14We appealed to the police
07:15for rescue.
07:16If there's a heart attack,
07:18people with orthopedic conditions,
07:20epilepsy,
07:21seizure disorder,
07:23should avoid
07:24stressful rides
07:25if we have
07:26this condition.
07:34If someone
07:35became careless
07:36while riding,
07:37and the driver
07:38didn't declare
07:40that he had
07:41this condition,
07:42we can't teach
07:44or ask the operator
07:45in the area.
07:47I didn't expect
07:48that this would happen.
07:50My brother
07:52told me
07:53to ride carefully
07:54when returning.
07:55That's my lesson learned.
07:57If you can't do it,
07:58don't do it.
08:01Next month,
08:02it's Bear Month.
08:03The fairs are
08:04left and right again.
08:06But before you ride
08:08any attractions
08:10or rides,
08:11make sure
08:12you're qualified
08:13in all the
08:14reminders
08:15and regulations.
08:17Wooo!
08:18Woo!
08:19Woo!
08:20You must be strong in the inside
08:22and not be afraid
08:23of any illness.
08:25It's hard to imagine
08:27that a simple ride
08:33can be one hell
08:35of a ride.
08:37I'm sick of it!
08:39Thank you for watching,
