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.

I'm actually relieved to know that it's actually a "coaster" in that you're strapped into a vehicle that (will presumably) be fixed onto the "track" in some way. Otherwise, it seems like a death trap.

Just inflate a raft, set it on top of your car with four people in it (no need to tie it down) and drive to Schlitterbaun. It is just as safe and a whole lot cheaper. And no stairs to climb. |
