According to netizen @Iamsyieddy, the ride takes about 5-minutes to complete!

That’s one long ride.

Decked by luscious greenery, the ride is not only long but is an attraction on its own by giving thrill-seekers a chance to whizz through the Malaysian rainforest without having to hike.

Being Malaysians, netizens commenting on the tweet expressed some concerns among them talking about the threat of wild animals and if one were to get stuck on the ride.
