As an aside, if light stopped too, wouldn’t that mean that the world would be plunged into darkness?
Photons of light reflect off of objects, and into our eyes before being converted into electrical signals by the brain and translated into visuals that we see. But to do this, photons and electrical signals need to be able to move through time and space. So if time is stopped, and light is stopped with it, none of that other stuff happens, and we all would effectively be blind. No?
Photons would still exist, they’d just be frozen in a cloud. You could “see” things by moving towards photon sources, but you’d leave a black fog behind you, and would never be able to see the samething twice.
The scenario doesn’t really make sense as the electro-chemical activity in your brain would be stopped as well, so you couldn’t be conscious.
But if we suspend disbelief, you could say that you’re stuck with the image that got to your retina when time stopped. Which means that you couldn’t see the protagonist moving!
Also, realistically, he couldn’t even move as he’d be against a barrier of unmovable air.
Imagine if your one of the thousands of people who would likely happen to have the sun in their eyes at the instant of freezing.

Depending on the exact moment you might assume you died and the ecstasy you were feeling was an afterlife.

Good thing is that since time has stopped, you won’t get your eyes burnt since light stopped travelling as well.

Yes, see my other answer.

Does this mean everything would be dark?

if a tree falls in a forest and nobody is around to hear it.
Does that mean that when photons stop moving, nobody can see them?
