Of course, almost no open, and indoor water park is complete without spiral slides. Usually the length of such a slide can be from 40 to 150 meters, this is in an average water park. These slides are ideal for any visitor to the water park, both for children and adults. That is why such slides are very common. Usually on such slides you need to ride lying down with your arms crossed.

A slide called " Magic carpet"Is a small hill, usually no longer than 40 meters. Such a slide is straight and wide. On this hill, a small speed develops. That is why this slide is considered one of the safest, suitable for both adults and children. In addition, several people can ride this slide at the same time, but subject to all safety standards.

This slide is colorful, decorated in the form of a rainbow, it is a smooth slide with gentle cascades, the speed on such a hill develops moderate. The length of such a slide can reach 40 meters.

The High Fanton slide is the same slide, with a longer and higher height, approximately 80 meters. This slide is usually very steep and allows you to gain very high speed. The Fanton Trumpet is a closed steep slide, from which you jump directly into the pool, when the descent occurs in complete darkness.

If you watched the Destination 3 horror, you might have developed a bias against the Roller Coaster. Do you think water slides are a great alternative? After all, there are no heavy moving mechanical parts, sharp turns, and - what is especially important - no electric current. Alas, we are forced to disappoint you! In water parks, this particular attraction does the most harm. You can unsuccessfully "splash down." You can get stuck and wait in the dark when they pull you out. You can damage parts of the body and ... even be decapitated. Do not believe? Here are the most dangerous water slides in the world.

Unreliable rafts

The Shoot The Rapids slide is located in the Cedar Point amusement park (Ohio, next to Lake Erie). Visitors descend on a raft accommodating up to ten people at a time. One of the worst events in the history of water slides happened in the park. The empty raft was pulled back to the top of the hill, but it broke and rushed down the hill and knocked over another raft. Ten visitors (including children) fell into the water, and the woman received a serious head injury. If help had not arrived in time, they would have drowned.

Ambush of rapists

The administration of the Arriba Water Park in the German city of Norderstedt recently took measures to protect its guests after a terrible incident that happened on a water slide. On March 4, 2015, two girls (14 and 18 years old) were caught by 14-and 34-year-old Afghan rapists who were waiting for their victims “at the finish” in the pool. The security team detained the criminals, but the girls managed to undergo violence. Now the guilty are behind bars, and the park has separate rides for men and women. Guards monitor visitors under the guise of ordinary swimmers.

Fall into a black hole

One of the most dangerous water slides is the infamous The Black Hole at Wet N’Wild Water Park in Orlando. The park has been repeatedly sued in connection with an emergency on this hill. In 2000, a man seized $ 1.73 million from a park after suffering serious injuries - when he was descending, he was rammed by some unknown object, the poor fellow was thrown out from the bottom of the “Hole” and could not move his legs. The spine was damaged, the victim needed metal plates implanted in the neck. There were other unpleasant incidents: people hit the bottom, about each other, were injured. The descent takes 23 seconds, but employees send the next visitor every 20 seconds, which sometimes leads to "accidents".

Brazilian Hippo

“Beach Park” in Brazil is famous for its water slide “Slide Insano Water” - this is one of the highest attractions of this kind (41 meters - like a 14-story building). Descending from this hill developed a speed of up to 105 km per hour, while the descent is so steep that the body barely touches the surface. In this situation, it is very important to take the correct posture so as not to be crippled: you need to cross your arms on your chest and your ankles. The whole "trip" takes 4-5 seconds, imagine how much adrenaline is thrown into the blood - not everyone can handle it. Employees often laugh at people emerging from the bottom of this “hippo”: some visitors cannot hold back their tears from fear and shock.

Horror movie set

In the Spanish city of Benidorm there is an attraction that could well become a decoration for a horror film - once its water was painted with scarlet blood due to a terrible emergency. We are talking about the vertigo (“VertiGo”) water slide 33 meters high. Imagine: you are standing in a capsule on top, and then a hatch opens under you and you are carried down. What happened? The British tourist entered the capsule, but the hatch did not open completely, the man fell through a small gap, severely injuring his face and cutting his legs. The pool at the bottom was filled with his blood, but after ten minutes the slide was working again.

The only indoor attraction

The Sahara Sidewinders Ride is another of the most dangerous water slides in the world. It is located in the Kalahari resort in the US city of Wisconsin Dells. The slide is positioned as the only indoor attraction of this type, the first of its kind in America. However, it seems that something has not been thought out in the new technology, because sometimes problems arise here. In 2011, the resort was sued after a teenager was injured on a hill. The process was won: the victim’s lawyers proved that the resort’s administration knew about the danger, but didn’t take the necessary measures (earlier there were complaints too, but it didn’t reach the court).

When the number of injuries surpasses

The Cannonball Falls is part of the infamous Action Park in New Jersey, which has become famous for the most injuries in the country. In just one season, six visitors were crippled, with five of them injured in the shoulder. The company, which owns the park, was very reluctant to pay for the treatment of all the victims. It was decided to close the attraction in September 2015.

Deadly madness

One of the last terrifying tragedies occurred on the Verruckt waterslide in Kansas City Water Park. This is the highest hill in the world (over 51 meters). In August 2016, the 10-year-old boy Caleb was thrown off the raft and beheaded. An investigation into this terrible case is still underway. Witnesses claim that they heard an explosion, a scream, and blood began to come out of the bottom of the hill. Caleb was very thin, and many say that he should not have been allowed to descend. The name of the slide is translated from German as "crazy." The crazy ride was closed after the incident - most likely, forever.

Another very dangerous waterslide, the Speed \u200b\u200bSlide, is located in the famous Penoeville Knoebels Water Park. At one time, the attraction often appeared in local news due to a large number of injuries - girls suffered especially. Two of them (visitors 11 and 12 years old) had damaged genitals. The speed of descent is so great that the force and pressure of the water simply tore their inner part.

Close in a month

One of the most ridiculous and unsafe water slides was the property of the already mentioned New Jersey “Action Park”. This monster was called "Cannonball Loop". It seems that it was designed without caring about the potential risks of visitors. And to venture on a "trip" on this hill could either absolutely "reckless", or decided on suicide. The attraction had the shortest lifespan: it was closed a month after opening. And thank God - at least no one had time to die on this monster.

Incredible facts

At the Schlitterbahn water park in Kansas, USA, there’s a water slide called Verruckt (which means “crazy, crazy” in German).

On the raft, 4 people will be able to go down at once and they will go down at a speed of about 104 km / h.

Highest hill

This design claims to be the world's highest slide.

At the moment, the exact height of the water slide has not been disclosed, since the official opening is scheduled for May 23, 2014, but it is known that the slide will be approximately the height of a 17-story building.

It is worth noting that while the highest slide in the world included in the Guinness Book of Records is the Insano slide in the Brazilian amusement park Beach Park in Fortaleza.

While the slide in Kansas has not opened, you can visit it virtually.

Scariest Water Slide: Scorpion's Tail

The Scorpion Tail can be found at Noah’s Ark Family Park Amusement Park, Wisconsin. The height of this slide is about a 10-story house and nearly 122 meters long.

You go into the capsule, the door is closed behind you, and after 3 seconds the floor falls under you and, almost from a right angle, you start to “fall” down, accelerating at a speed of about 15 meters per second. The only thing that slows down the fall is the loop of the slide. Among other things, you perfectly see everything that happens outside, because The slide is made of transparent fiberglass.

The Insano waterslide is located in the Fortaleza Beach Park water park. It was the first water park built in Brazil in the resort of Fortaleza in 1989. Initially, the water park had only three beach slides. Now Fortaleza Beach Park is a huge entertainment complex with an area of \u200b\u200b180,000 square meters. In addition to the water park, there are museums, cafes, souvenir shops, conference rooms, the Beach Park Suites Resort 5 * hotel.
But, of course, the main attraction is the Insano waterslide. Its height is 41 meters! For comparison, this is equal to the height of a 14-story building, and the descent from it is almost vertical! Only a madman would dare to ride with her. Having climbed a hill, you understand what bird flight height means. You see the beautiful port city of Fortaleza and the unusually beautiful coast of the Atlantic Ocean at a glance.
The flight from the Insano slide itself lasts no more than 5-6 seconds, during which the daredevil experiences an extraordinary range of feelings. Still, the descent speed reaches 105 meters / hour!
Anyone who descends from such a high water slide Insano wants to have videos and photos. During the descent, you can watch the video at the point near the hill and redeem it. You must admit that it is interesting to watch a person who develops a speed equal to the speed of a rushing car in a matter of seconds. Anyone who is taller than 140 cm can ride with Insano, the tallest water slide in the world, and he has no cardiovascular disease.
A visit to the water park “Fortaleza Beach Park” will cost an adult 45 Euros and 40 Euros for children.
For over 15 years, Insano has remained the highest and most terrible slide in the whole world.

In 2005, the Guilness Book of Records included the Kilimanjaro waterslide as the highest in the world. Its height is 49.9 meters! This is the height of a 17-story building. You need to be completely crazy to venture to get down from it. The hill was built in 1999 in Brazil at the Aquas Quentes Country Club water park near Rio de Janeiro. At a height of about 50 meters, the Kilimanjaro has a tilt angle of 60 degrees. This allows you to develop a speed of 100 meters / hour during the descent, that is, a visitor who dares to ride this crazy hill slides in 5 seconds. In 2014, the Schlitterbahn water park in Kansas City should open. Its creators claim that the Verrückt slide will be higher than the Kilimanjaro and a new world record will be set.

Which of us who visited the water park did not dream of taking a ride on the longest water slide? To feel even more adrenaline, even more speed and drive. Then you need to visit the Holiday World & Splashin Safari entertainment center. It is located in the US state of Indiana in Santa Claus. Just imagine, this park has the two longest water slides in the world! This is Wildebeest and "Mammoth" ("Mammoth"). They are crazy roller coasters. You will enjoy a spectacular descent and rise, with swings and bends more than 500 meters long. Wildebeest Hill was opened in 2010, then it was considered the most the longest water slide in the world, if only its length was 520 meters! On a trip along this hill lasts only 2.5 minutes, but what! You will find a dizzying flight at different angles of inclination, you will descend from a height of 20 meters to 12 meters. during the descent, you will fall twice into the closed sections of the pipe. For the descent, use an inflatable raft, which is designed for 4 people. For this slide, there is a restriction on the growth of visitors (above 110 cm). In 2010, the slide was given the status of "Best New Waterpark Rid e ".

In 2012, this world record was broken. On May 11, 2012, the opening of the Mammoth slide took place in the same water park. The length of the "Mammoth" is 537 meters! This is the longest water slide in the world! A new boat has been specially developed for Mammoth. It is designed for six people. Your flight will last 3 minutes. In this giant hill open sections alternate with closed tunnels. During the descent, you will find 6 turns, the height of the highest is 21 meters (this is the height of a 7-story building).

Waterpark Wet n`Wild Water World, which is located in Australia in the city of Oxenford, is visited annually by more than 1 million people. This is the eighth place in attendance in the world! Why does it attract visitors so much? Maybe this is the largest water park in Australia? Or maybe because it belongs to the famous Warner Brosers film company and is part of the Warner Village theme park dedicated to Disney’s favorite heroes.
Or the Wet n` Wild Water World water park, whose name translates as Wild Water World, beckons with its extreme and crazy slides?
Judge for yourself, this is one of the few water parks where there is an unusual slide "AquaLoop" or "Water loop". It is amazing and shocking! You need to be a real extreme in order to dare to ride this hill! The creators themselves describe it this way: “At the beginning of the start, you fall into the capsule, the hatch closes, and you wait in anticipation of the unknown. There will be a return report 3..2..1. Spectators are looking at you somewhere below. Then the floor literally falls under your feet, and you fall from a height of 17 meters! Then you fall into a dead loop, and water carries you at a speed of 60 meters along bends almost 90 meters long, and pushes you out with splashes. ”I would like to clarify that the flight lasts only 7 seconds, and you reach this speed in just 2 seconds. The slide itself is made of transparent material, which allows viewers to watch the extreme descent. The very first AquaLoop or Water Loop slide with a dead loop was opened in Slovenia in the TERME 3000 water park in 2008. It was one of the most extreme slides in the world!

Describing the most terrible slides, one cannot but mention the water slides with sharks. In the United Arab Emirates there is an unusual water park called "Aquaventure". If you come here at least once, then be sure to fall in love with this place. It is located on the First artificial Palm Island. Above the palm trees tower of Neptune proudly rises. It can be seen from any corner of the Aquaventure water park. It is necessary to climb it to ride on a super extreme slide called the “Leap of Faith” - a water slide with sharks. From a height of 27 meters the daredevil is waiting for an almost vertical descent. A jump from a 9-story building ends with you diving through a transparent pipe into a pool filled with sharks and stingrays.
Then you swiftly sweep through a pipe in the water, where sharks are teeming. Only thin glass separates you from them! Imagine the gamut of feelings that you feel before descending, looking down at these predatory beauties. Another no less extreme water slide with sharks is located on the other side of the world, namely in America. In Las Vegas, the city of entertainment, the chic Golden Nugget hotel was built with a pool and a water slide with sharks, not everyone will venture to ride it. The slide itself begins on the third floor of the hotel and ends on the first. You go down a closed pipe, then suddenly your descent continues in a transparent pipe. And you find yourself in an aquarium, where you swim by swimming sharks. And only thin glass protects you from the toothy predators that watch the visitors. Your descent ends in the pool, some walls of which are transparent.
Walking through the park, you can watch one of the most extreme water slides in Japan. Yes, you were not mistaken. Crazy roller coaster in Japan ends under water. The joyful cries of people, a huge column of water that rises when the coaster touches the surface.

A waterslide called the Vanish rollercoaster was opened in Japan in 1999. During this time, several million people swept it. Only 700 yen and you will find the most unforgettable descent from the water slide, which is only in Japan. The most extreme Japanese water slide is pink. You see her in the photo. Pay attention to its length.

The total length of the hill is almost a kilometer. Just imagine the speed at which the descent takes place, if you need less than 2 minutes to overcome this distance! First you will find dizzying bends of roller coasters, and then ... at an angle of almost 45 degrees you rush towards a meeting with water. The column of water rises upwards It only drops when the last visitors are hiding under the water. Only later you find out that the coaster descended into the tunnel, the splash turns on automatically, and the people who dared to ride on the most unusual water slide in Japan did not even get wet!

But you must admit how beautiful it is! Especially in the evening, when the Vanish rollercoaster waterslide is illuminated with multi-colored lights! Against the tall skyscrapers of Japan that are in the Port of the future, it looks very bewitching! If you are in Yokohama, you want to climb the highest skyscraper in Japan, then pay attention how the CosmoWorld park looks from a height of 296 meters. Impressive rides from such a height look very tiny and not at all scary.

In the water park, even adults pay attention to large slides. This fun is not only for small people. After all, people for their amusement built real monsters that can scare even an avid lover of water recreation.

Wiegand Maelzer Slide Tower, Area47, Tyrol, Austria. Typically, Tyrol attracts fans of extreme sports in winter. Indeed, during the ski season you can ride with the breeze. But in the summer you can have a good rest here. Area47's unique water park offers a dizzying descent. Having risen to a 30-meter height, everyone can decide on the spot which of the five slides to slide down. The most dangerous of them is a 100-meter gutter twisted in a spiral. The most desperate can decide to slide down a special 30-meter slope on a special board resembling a snowboard. Only at the end of the extreme track is a surprise in the form of a springboard awaiting.

Divertical, Mirabilandia, Ravenna, Italy. An interesting hybrid of water and roller coasters has recently appeared in this Italian amusement park. The construction of the slide ended in 2012 and cost $ 26 million. A dozen people rises up on the trailer. The height is about 60 meters, it should be noted that this is the largest such attraction in the world. The wagon begins to swiftly rush down the rails along a fancifully arched path. As a result, to the cries of agitated people, transport flies into the pools. A sea of \u200b\u200bspray immediately rises, falling on passengers. Diving occurs at an angle of 45 degrees at a speed of 65 km / h.

Toboggan, Città del Mare Hotel Village, Palermo, Italy. In a picturesque place on the island of Sicily, there are immediately 11 steep descents into the water.

The Leap of Faith, Aquaventure, Dubai, UAE. This huge water park is located on the island of "small palm trees" in Dubai. In this entertainment center you can swim with dolphins, ride an inflatable torus along the "lazy" river, and after that just lie on a great sandy beach. But many come here because of the ziggurat. Having climbed this tower, it is proposed to choose for yourself entertainment according to the level of courage. You can ride through a transparent underwater tunnel that lies right in the middle of the kingdom of sharks swimming here, or you can make the “Faith Leap” - down the vertical gutter from a height of 30 meters. There is a similar water park in the Bahamas. There, in 2008, a real reef shark broke into the pool. It is good that the attraction was closed at this time for visitors. But the unfortunate creature could not bear the chlorinated water and died.

RideHouse, Happy Magic Water Cube Waterpark, Beijing, China. The Chinese were able to fundamentally modify the usual swimming pool. After the Olympics, it was rebuilt, creating the largest water park in Asia. The design is amazing - here there are valves, water cannons, jellyfish, nets ...

This structure combines 12 whole slides. At the same time, while some daredevils sweep through the curved mazes, others, standing in line, pour out a huge cube of water every 2 minutes.

Behemoth Bowl, Chimelong Water Park, Guangzhou, China. Few people dare to ride a hippopotamus at Chimelong Water Park. Rare daredevils are seated on a small inflatable raft. It accelerates through a translucent hundred-meter tunnel to a speed of 10 meters per second. Then the structure flies into a large bowl and, spinning in it, falls into the drain hole in the middle. And only then through the gutter do people get into the pool. At the same time, the system for accurately passing the raft along the path set by the engineers even received a patent, which guarantees safety.

Insano, Beach Park, Akiras, Brazil. Even if this 40-meter hill is not the highest in the world, people here, in a Brazilian resort, can fly almost perpendicular to the ground, about 5 seconds. Insano is a fairly simple design - this is the only slope, it's just pretty steep. The moments of traveling along a steep gutter from a height of a 14-story building will certainly be remembered for a lifetime. Indeed, in a short time, a person will accelerate to a speed of 100 km / h, and you can already understand what exactly happened when you are in the pool. Although the slide is not the highest in the world, 788 thousand people came to ride it or just admire high-speed races in 2011.

Mount Gushmore’s Summit Plummet, Blizzard Beach at Walt Disney World, Orlando, USA. It is strange to see snow in the hot summer. But the first thing that catches your eye in this amusement park is the 30-meter snow-covered mountain. At its top is a small wooden house. From here you can slide down the gutter, and at the end of the path there will be a small springboard. By jumping on it, you can feel the chilling horror of free fall from a height of 36 meters and at a speed of 100 km / h. The picturesque hill from Disney Park is the most frequently photographed man-made mountain in the world.

King Cobra, Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, Jackson, USA. It is no coincidence that the name of the royal cobra was given to this hill. She is the longest snake on the planet.

At the same time, a lover of such entertainment will have to overcome unexpected turns and sharp dizzying descents. The attraction appeared in 2012, but has already managed to become a sensation. Today, this waterslide is one of the worst in the world.

AquaDuck, Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy cruise ships. The creators of these cruise liners tried to create real water parks on them. That is why the attraction AquaDuck turned out to be unique, and yet it is worth considering its size.

The launch starts from the stern on the 12th deck, then the route runs right behind the side of the ship at an altitude of 45 meters above water level.

Wild Vortex, Wielderness at the Smokies, USA. In this water park, most attractions are hidden under a large roof, which allows you to enjoy the thrill throughout the year.

The whole trip lasts only 7 seconds, but do not underestimate this attraction. Sharp vertical lifts and loops make the game feel like gravity, riders experience an overload of up to 2.5G.
