Tourists had hilarious reactions as they rode a new giant swing in Bangkok.

Friends Chatcharaporn, 27, and Sirinda Phiewkliang, 23, had mixed feelings as they tried the thrilling SkyFlyers tower in the Thai capital.

Footage shows Chatcharaporn walking unsteadily after the dizzying ride on December 3.

She can be heard saying: ‘Yeah, I am still alive. My legs are shaking right now.'

Her friend Sirinda said afterwards: ‘It's not really scary, but it's quite dizzying when you go up there, and when it spreads out and swings, the gravity makes you even more dizzy. It's a bit scary.'

Launched on November 29, the ride claims the title as the tallest giant swing in both the country and the wider Asia-Pacific region. Owners say it is the top three globally, stretching to the same height as a 36-storey skyscraper, or around 435ft (135m).

The SkyFlyer operates in the afternoon from 2:30 pm to 3 pm and at night from 10 pm to 11 pm. Guests must remove their belongings from their pockets to prevent them from falling onto people below.

Despite the popularity of the attraction and safety checks, many residents claim the late-evening rides have made it difficult to rest, urging mall management to find a solution.

They say the incessant screams and howls are like a non-stop horror movie being played.

Frustrated resident Sanga Pishayangkul said: 'SkyFlyers… What time will I be able to sleep? The world-class ride sits next to my fence, and so does the nonstop screaming.'

Another neighbour added: 'It feels like someone is screaming above my head all the time. No one here can sleep anymore. Terrible.'

While one pensioner living nearby said the constant howls were 'traumatising'.

Mai Sukanyul, 72, said: 'It's like living through a nightmare every night. The screams remind me of a horror film. It could be traumatic for some people.'

Tourists can access the attraction inside the Asiatique compound, with tickets priced from 320 baht (7.50 GBP) to 999 baht (23.41 GBP) for bundle packages covering additional rides.
