Ice skating is a very fun activity to do with friends and family. Not only will you get to feel like a figure skater, you might also catch some funny moments of your friends slipping and falling while trying to skate. It’s simply a moment to remember.
With that being said, ice skating can also be dangerous if you’re not careful as you are wearing blades on a hard cold surface. But what happens if the danger doesn’t necessarily stay in the ice skating rink? A video posted on TikTok recently shows the scary condition of a parking lot underneath an ice skating rink.

TikTok user @jangrembau posted a video on his account showing the condition of an underground parking lot at Sunway Pyramid mall which is famous for its ice skating rink. The underground parking lot in question is underneath the ice skating rink. In the video, the ceiling of the parking lot appears to be leaking, which causes the floor to be wet. The ceiling is also in a very bad condition, and covered in moss.
Netizens reacted to the video highlighting their concerns not only for the safety of the people on the ice skating rink but also for those in the underground parking lot. TikTok users commented on the video questioning the maintenance while others warn people to avoid parking in Sunway Pyramid until this matter is resolved.
Some netizens commented that they are confident that something bad might happen if the Sunway Pyramid mall management doesn’t take immediate action. One TikTok user commented, “It will collapse, mark my words”. Another said that it is only a matter of time, “If management doesn’t give a damn that’s fine but it’ll be pointless if they act on it after something bad happens”.
Sunway Pyramid mall has since released an official statement on their Facebook page addressing the people’s concern over the issue. In the statement, Sunway Pyramid Mall mentioned that they have certified engineers who regularly inspect the building’s structural integrity, including inspection checks from relevant authorities.
The statement reads, “There is no water contained inside the concrete or within our structure despite the current rainy season causing high humidity levels. While the safety of the building is not compromised under these circumstances, we will continue to improve the humidity levels in the basement car park”.
Are you rest assured by Sunway Pyramid’s statement?
