Infamous Water Slide so Dangerous, it had to be Shut Down

What’s an Action Park without a little bit of danger right?

I don’t understand how this ride could exist in a sue-crazy modern era… Yes, it is a looping water slide. This water slide flipped the bird at physics so rudely that it was open for a single summer and then shut down for good.

Most patrons were too afraid (or too sensible) to attempt the ‘loop’. But if you did have a go and survive without getting abrasion over your entire back, you were greeted with a puddled wet mat instead of and actual pool. Yes they always made it out alive, but no one was foolish enough to ride it a second time.

I think I’ll stick with the bumper boats.
