heartstopper

Breath-stealing moment

A heartstopper is something so surprising, thrilling, or beautiful that it figuratively stops the heart—a moment of breathless shock or awe.

The word often describes dramatic moments in sports or entertainment: The last-second goal was a real heartstopper.

It can also refer to a person of stunning attractiveness: She's an absolute heartstopper.
