everybody loves waterslides they're fun

they're thrilling and they're the best

way to cool yourself in summertime but

sadly they can also be quite dangerous

if the ones who made them were not

responsible enough numerous injuries and

even deaths have led to some water

slides being banned so today we'll be

looking into ten of them Aquasphere the

troubled water slide at the peninsula

aquatic recreational center in Australia

was closed up once but two times with

the first time being even before the

facility officially opened since Parc is

owned by Frankston council a closed

session was held for its staff and their

families in 2014 unfortunately the

session didn't go exactly as planned and

the waterslide was closed until the

issue was resolved while the slide was

operational after that the second

incident happened only two years later

after which it was closed once again

according to an eyewitness a boy aged

about 7 was lying lifeless on the ground

after being thrown out of the tube and

knocked around inside the slide the

boy's father and older brother rushed to

his aid but the unfortunate kid blacked

out for nearly 15 minutes after the

eyewitness said later on Parc CEO Tim

Gledhill confirmed that an incident

occurred saying that they're working

with the manufacturer of the slide to

investigate the cause and that the slide

will remain closed during that time

located in Canada's largest themed water

park called Calypso steamer slide was

the reason the waterpark faced a large

number of lawsuits over claims of

injuries the charges related to the

incidents that happened way back in 2011

and 2012

apparently the park officials haven't

reported any of the incidents didn't

have proper equipment that would ensure

the rider safety and to top it all off

the staff wasn't properly trained as

well out of 20 charges the waterpark

faced 14 were related to three separate

incidents involving the infamous teamer

slide as one man suffered a fractured

skull one woman's stoop hit the wall at

the end of the slide numerous people

reported suffering neck injuries and at

one point two tubes even crashed steamer

slide was eventually banned and had to

be shut down by the waterpark up next we

have the Sahara Sidewinders ride at the

Kalahari resort in Wisconsin Dells the

60-foot tall indoor water slide drop

riders from a trapdoor chamber into one

of two looping slides advertises the

only indoor looping water slides in the

nation and when they were added to the

park in 2011 they were called the first

of their kind in the world

such innovations always come with a fair

share of concerns that proved to be

justified when a teenager was injured

while riding the waterslide

the boy's family sued the resort and the

lawsuit was ultimately successful

because as it turned out there were

several other complaints which were

ignored because the resort knew the ride

was unsafe and risky but did absolutely

nothing about it

with so many lawsuits and safety

violations piling up the waterslide had

to be closed down by the resort in the

end

and over 51 meters or 168 feet and 7

inches bericht in Kansas City Water Park

became the world's tallest waterslide

when it opened in 2014 and with the

length of 183 metres or 601 feet it is

also among the longest slides and it is

definitely one of the craziest rides

which is hardly surprising considering

it is literally called crazy or insane

in German not only was the 70 stories

tall slide taller than Niagara Falls in

offering a pretty awesome view from the

top but you could also hit speeds of up

to 65 miles per hour thanks to an almost

90-degree drop in crazy rushing water

sounds like a terrifying experience well

for some it sadly turned out to be a lot

worse than just terrifying on August 7th

2016 the ten-year-old son of Kansas

state representative Scott Schwab died

while riding Brooks when the raft he was

in went airborne and impact to the

middle support of the netting amusement

parks and fades but it's supposed to be

quintessential family fun turned tragic

for one family as a 10 year old boy is

killed in a waterpark slide the two

other passengers both women were injured

in the incident with one suffering a

broken jaw while the other suffered a

facial bone fracture and needed stitches

[Music]

up next we don't just have a waterslide

but an entire resort where the slide was

located banned and closed due to a whole

list of violations even though four

Rapids indoor water park and resort

advertises itself as the perfect family

fun travel destination where 60,000

square feet of what and wild fun is

waiting for the whole family they fail

to mention that it's only the case if

the guests are really into bedbugs

cockroaches bad air quality fire code

violations food poisoning and being

sickened from the themes in the

waterpark as problems and complaints

kept piling up the place was ultimately

closed in 2015 by pretty much every

agency out there as if that wasn't bad

enough two years after the closure a

water pipe burst and the upper floors

and poured out of the windows and vents

turning into ice as it ran down the

walls of the hotel due to low

temperature

wet'n wild waterparks black hole is

another infamous waterslide that has

earned the waterpark a number of

lawsuits located in Orlando Florida the

park that is considered America's first

waterpark was founded way back in 1977

but it eventually closed in 2016 the

first incident occurred back in 1994

when a man rode the black hole slide the

twisting ride where the guests are shot

down a dark tube on a 2-person float

with his family on their way down the

man was struck by something and when his

float exited the bottom he couldn't move

his legs

a moment later an empty inner tube came

out and because of the injuries the man

eventually had a titanium plate

surgically planted into his neck

naturally what and Wilde claimed that

nothing was wrong with their ride and

even if there was something wrong it

wasn't the case of the maz neck injury

the entire thing was taken to court and

what does has testified that the floats

were getting stuck in the black hole's

ooze in a daily basis and that it takes

23 seconds for a float to pass through

the black hole but what in while decided

to send another one after only 20

seconds in addition to that even the wet

and wild clay that their rod was in good

shape they sued the company that made it

claiming it was defective before

Geronimo falls at the action park in New

Jersey closed it was considered to be

one of the most extreme water slides at

the time due to its steepness that had

the riders actually flying in the air

instead of sticking to the waterslide

surface experiencing speeds of around 60

miles per hour to try and solve the

problem the decision-makers at the water

park installed the metal grade over the

opening of the slide which resulted in

people being slammed onto it and then

being bounced back down into the slide

this obviously wasn't the best solution

because numerous people were severely

injured and some have even died so the

park had no options but to ban the

waterslide from use

located at Cedar Point in Sandusky Ohio

shoot the rapids was a western-themed

flume water ride opened in 2010 staying

in line with the theme it was based on

the aggressive ride took people on the

journey through western environments

with elements of an illegal moonshine

business over time the ride proved to be

one of the most popular ways to beat the

heat but that changed in 2013 what an

incident occurred in the ride

malfunctioned during the thrill ride one

of the boats accidentally rolled down

the rides first hill and flipped over in

the water which resulted in seven people

being injured operators stop the water

ride after the accident and along with

police officers and medical personnel

located in the park jumped into the

water to help the unfortunate passengers

who were belted into the boat and

trapped initially the parks officials

didn't disclose how the boat landed

after rolling downhill but witnesses

claimed that the boat flipped upside

down or on its side after the accident

six of the seven boat passengers and the

log fumé were evaluated and treated at

the park and then were released while

the other one was taken to a hospital

for further evaluation before being

released ultimately the ride remained

closed for the rest of the season before

being completely demolished after only

five seasons

cannonball ooh a waterslide that put

riders through a complete vertical loop

was another infamous attraction that

action park shrouded in mystery the

rumor has it that the slide was open for

one whole month in December of 1985

before being shut down by the New Jersey

carnival amusement ride Safety Advisory

Board not many people actually got the

chance to ride it though except the park

employees who had to test it and a few

brave souls who suffered a great deal of

injuries one of the rumors even goes as

far as to say the test dummies that went

through the waterslide came out missing

limbs so if you haven't been among the

brave ones right then and there you can

forget about ever going on it

[Music]

when disney river country opened its

winding slides and wooden bridges

attracted countless visitors as everyone

wanted to take a ride

while the park promised to be lots of

fun it did suffer the first and a rather

big setback only four years after

opening when in 1980 an eleven year old

boy contracted a medical condition that

resembles both meningitis and

encephalitis and is basically an

infection of the nervous system and

brain caused by an amoeba in the water

unfortunately the boy died shortly after

because the rare disease is fatal in

most cases but Disney wasn't punished in

any way because the amoeba can breed in

practically any freshwater when the

weather is hot still that wasn't the end

of it because just two years later a

fourteen-year-old boy drowned after

falling into the lake at the end of the

whooping holler slide naturally the

boy's family sued Disney because there

weren't any posters warning about how

deep the water was and in addition to

that a lifeguard testified in court that

dozens of people needed to be rescued

from the slide on a daily basis despite

everything the park continued to operate

as Disney only had to pay a settlement

of three hundred and seventy five

thousand dollars but the tragedy struck

again in 1989 when another 13 year old

kid drowned at the park

however the park still continued to work

even though the number of visitors

drastically decreased until Disney

ultimately announced its permanent

closure in 2005 without given an

official reason for doing
