Avengers fans were left soaking wet after water started pouring from the ceiling while they were watching the movie.<br /><br />Hundreds of people queued to see the hit Marvel Comics superhero film on an opening day in Ratchaburi, Thailand, on April 26.<br /><br />But with an hour remaining of Avengers: Endgame, the cinema’s fire sprinkler opened sending water cascading over the confused viewers below. <br /><br />The film fans were left drenched - and had to leave without knowing the ending of the immensely popular movie. <br /><br />Staff at the venue blamed the sprinklers being triggered by on a heat wave currently causing temperatures in the country to pass 40c. <br /><br />Disappointed customer Wittawat Hanvanich, 30, said: ‘’I was enjoying watching Avengers. There was still an hour until the end. I don’t know what happened so I’ll need to find the time to visit again. I was what after.’’<br /><br />Staff at the cinema apologised to customers and said that soaring temperatures - said to be caused by the El Nino warm phase - had made pipes and valves expand which triggered the sensors. <br /><br />Customers have been offered free tickets to return and watch the film again.<br /><br />Wittawat added: ‘’I’m disappointed by what happened. The cinema should learn to control their water systems. But they dealt with the situation and we can go back to see the film again.’’<br /><br />Avengers: Endgame has grossed $350 million in its domestic theatrical debut and $1.2 billion worldwide since it opened on April 26.
