Guests aboard the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland were recently made to walk a makeshift plank to safety after their boat began to take on water, according to a viral TikTok post.

Passengers on the boat were stranded for about an hour during the incident, showed the video — which was posted on Saturday and has garnered more than 1.6 million views.

In the footage, water lines the bottom of the boat, and Disney's fire department is shown helping escort guests off the ride near the load/unload area of the attraction, according to the Orange County Register.

"It was a hot mess," TikTok user justnjames_ wrote. "Honestly thought we were gonna swim our way out of this."

A representative for Disneyland did not immediately return PEOPLE's request for additional details.
