Riding on any of these water slides is guaranteed to be remembered for the rest of your life.

"Insano" (Brazil)

Located 55 miles south of Fortaleza along the northeast coast of Brazil. It is here that the Insano slide attracts "adrenaline junkies". Its height reaches 140 feet, which is approximately equal to the height of a 14-story building. On the this moment it is the tallest in the world and is listed in the Guinness Book of Records. When descending, you can accelerate to an incredible 100 kilometers per hour. Since most of the time a person is in free fall, the trip lasts only 4-5 seconds.

"Brainwash" (Florida)

Located at Disney's Blizzard Beach Water Park. A 36-meter slope will allow extreme sportsmen to test their strength. Well, the height of a 12-story building will allow you to move down the hill at a speed of 90 kilometers per hour.

Scorpion Tail (Wisconsin)

Located right in the middle of the state, 55 miles north of Madison. The height of the slide is about the same as that of a ten-story building. The length of the descent is 122 meters, but the maximum acceleration speed is small - only 15 kilometers per hour.

Leap of Faith (Bahamas)

The hill is a copy of the Mayan temple. The main highlight of this attraction is that its pipe passes through the pool with swimming sharks. So when descending through an 18-meter tunnel, one can only hope for the strength of its walls.

Its height was 41 meters.

Schlitterbahn Water Park was opened last year. The steepest slide, Verrückt, reaches 52 meters in height, which is half a meter higher than the Statue of Liberty. The spiral climb takes professional risk-takers to the very top, where they break into teams of 4, sit on rubber rafts and rush down at a speed of 120 km / h.

Let's take a closer look at it...

"Verrückt" in German means "crazy" - in fact, only a crazy extreme and thrill-seeker will dare to ride the highest and fastest water slide.

The water slide "Verrückt" is officially recognized by the Guinness Book of Records as the highest in the world: its height is 51.38 m

The Verrückt Meg-a-Blaster is a design triumph of insane proportions by Jeff Henry, co-owner and "evil genius" of Schlitterbahn Waterparks. Henry decided he wanted to build a record-breaking slide, which resulted in the creation of "Verrückt".

The Verrückt has 4 people descending in parallel and, as Henry remarked, "It's a lot more fun to have someone yelling next to your ear." It all starts with a frightening fall from a 17-story height and continues with a small rise. And this is more than 180 meters of wet extreme. After the initial fall, which is steeper than any ski slope, You get to the second lift five floors high, with new water supply technology.

The massive tower around which you will ascend to dizzying heights is made from railroad tank cars cut and welded together. The builders reuse the material to build the "Verrückt". The attraction differs from the Kilimanjaro in that it will be a raft ride and the body will not touch the surface. Although, of course, the raft is not very comfortable transport when you are flying 50 meters down.

"Verrückt" is higher than Niagara Falls, the Statue of Liberty (from sandals to a torch) and Tower of London. It will not only be the highest slide in the world, but also the steepest and fastest. Henry says that “Verrückt will change the industry. The biggest challenge will be to find extreme people who will dare to go down.” If you're brave enough, visit Kansas City and challenge yourself!
