Will you ride the world's tallest water slide?
SCHLITTERBAHN
It could take a while to climb the 264 steps to the top of the new water slide at Schlitterbahn. It won’t take that long to get back down at 65 mph or so. The Verrückt — German for insane — will be the tallest and fastest water slide in the world when it opens next year at the Kansas City, Kan., water park. Read more here: http://www.kansascity.com/2013/11/19...#storylink=cpy Here’s a view from the top of the Verrückt water slide. You’ll have to climb 264 stairs to see this in real life.

And that's why you use swim diapers. Awesome that they befouled the park because they likely had to close it down for the rest of the day. Yes I'm bitter. My kids had a day at the waterpark ruined by some dumbass parent who didn't put their kid in a swim diaper.

Uhhh, yeah. I like roller coasters and other thrill rides as much as the next guy, but that doesn't look very safe.

I thought it was one of those single slalom kind of things where the water bidets you back to puberty.

The middle one in this picture is kind of scary. When you get in it looks like you are just going to fall off of the edge. Then when you go out the water kind of shoots you out and you lose contact with the slide, which is somewhat unsettling. Then you quickly lose momentum and you stop before you even get to the bottom pool.
