Yes. brb Kansas City.
Tbh after watching it on video, it does look scary like a rollercoaster, once you're on your way it looks beyond boring though.
Now just as I figured would happen this waterslide has taken its first life. A 10 year old boy died riding this deathtrap. This thing should never have been built.

A 10-year-old boy was killed Sunday in an accident at Schlitterbahn Water Park in Kansas City, Kan., police and the park said.
Winter Prosapio, a spokeswoman for the park, said the boy died on the Verrückt, which is billed as the world's tallest waterslide.

The victim was identified as Caleb Schwab, the son of state Rep. Scott Schwab of Olathe. The water park said in its initial report that the boy was 12, but a family spokesman clarified late Sunday that he was 10.
In a statement, the family said that since the day Caleb was born, "he brought abundant joy to our family and all those he came in contact with."
"As we try to mend our home with him no longer with us, we are comforted knowing he believed in our Savior Jesus, and they are forever together now," the family said. "We will see him another day."
Well, at least there's that."As we try to mend our home with him no longer with us, we are comforted knowing he believed in our Savior Jesus, and they are forever together now," the family said. "We will see him another day."
All snark aside, I hope they implement something to improve the safety here. This thing is a bad idea.
Well only crazy peolpe would ride the "Verrückt".
Probably the kids own fault, they usually give you instructions to make it safe. If you dont remain in the safe position its your fault.
Set to be done in 2014
This is the completed project. You ride in a raft and the top of the slide is covered. If it killed somebody, they'd have to be riding it wrong.
So yes I'd ride it.

There's also the issue of your "update" being rather different than the original post though.
This is something that would be far better suited to a new thread, due to the fact that people will come in, see the OP, and answer that instead of your most recent update, which it seems like Tennisace did anyway-
