Jun 10 2008German Waterslide Does A Loopty-Loop

Um what the f*** happens if something goes wrong and you don't make it through that loop? You'd be stuck in a part that you cannot get out of and probably freak the f*** out! RRRiiiiiight screw that.

FIRRRRST

First...!

And shitting my banana hammock is DEFINITELY my idea of a good time!

i shit in my banana hammock....all the time....on a daily basis

i know...

#1. That would happen with most slides you get stuck in, but you're right that there'd be an extra level of "OMFG" added if you got stuck in this one. o_o; I'll pass.

@JC
I am from Germany and I actually saw that report on TV. To make sure that there is no defect whatsoever there is a organization in Germany called the TÜV. This organization is responsible for testing wether or not rides (and also cars) are absolutely save.
In the case of this waterslide they had to test how many Gs of acceleration the human experiences which was about 5Gs. This is barely under the "legal limit of acceleration allowed".

I would definetly ride this thing!

Meh, its not really a loopty-loop. Its still failry horizontal IMO.

I can see why they do it this way though as its probably not fiesably safe to have a true loop. Sure its possible, but you know some fat ass would screw it up by not making the full loop and end up being stuck between the drop and the loop.

Looks erm,

Yeah, F*** that.

Heck, all they need to prevent Homer-style clogs is like a little sign at the bottom saying "Der Fattyamerikaner ist verboten on das Awesomewassersliden."

I think all awesome new technological developments should be tested on TV by people who, like this woman, seem utterly terrified of them.

hey Phy,
uhmmm, i'll bet you didn't know that the ratio of fat to skinny people in germany is actually slightly more than in amerika. haha! you FAIL!

i'd hit this wassersliden every five minutes if i was in the park, just to rub my scent all over this inferior german technology. one word for this ride: fukenharmlessbiatchz.

anway, it looks fun though. good post geek-writer! woO!

The Germas totally nailed this one. I would so jump on this.

Now to make it the perfect ride for Germans - get David Hasselhoff to ride it.

Yeah, cheap shot and probably not that funny but then again I usually laugh at my own jokes more than my audience.

The ending looks lame: You slide into a kiddie pool. Now, if there was a jump at the end, where you go flying through the air for about ten feet & land in Kim Kardashian's upturned butt cheeks, now THAT'S the ride for me!!!!

@ #5...yeah but what if like your hands hit the sides or something else unexpected and rare happens...you really could not go fast/high enough! omg I can't even imagine...

Hey Redd - you were not first - you loser. You fail at first. Hope you have fun shitting yourself. loser

That's no loop!

That would really suck if you were in it & the water suddenly cut off & you were forced to go the rest of the way down with little to no water coating the slide.

Road-erm.. tube rash FTW!

In the videos, is the narrator speaking Swedish? Some sounded German, some I didn't recognize. True, I speak neither, but am hoping to learn German soon. Either way, pretty cool, I'd ride it.

#8: even with my limited German, I understood that and laughed :p

#16: it would suck even more if the water cut off before you got to the apex of the first loop...

This water slide was actually built in Slovenia and tested by the German TÜV before the first slide of this kind is going to be built in Germany.

@Everyone who questions not making the loop... Check at 2:21. Looks like it has some kind of hatch at the bottom of the drop from which you could rescue people who cock it up.

Why do Europeans feel the need to wear speedos?

Oh well, at least we got to see the chick's boobs, which is the most important thing, right?

Hey Last,
it's true, just like when I f***ed your fat whore of a mother, I wasn't first... but also like when I skull raped that cum-guzzling gutter slut, I shit myself.

This isnt a first, you gotta check out action park. its an amusement park from NJ that had a water slide that did an actual loop, and it was made in like the 70's or something. it was closed down cuase it kept killing people.

I used to live in dirty jersey, and if anyone can remember there was the Great Gorge water park. They had a loopy d loop waterslide (and this was about 15 years ago).

I never actually saw it open to the public, and the rumor among the kids was that it was open for only one day when somebody went in, got stuck in the loop and drowned.

If anybody remembers this, it would go a long way in proving to my friends that are no long term halucinigenic affects of a healthy LSD habit*

*By habit I mean addiction. Flat out no f***ing joke, sucking you know what in a you know where for money to buy my next trip.

Even with the trap door, if you don't make the loop, you fall back down and break your neck before being able to be rescued.

@ #5: dude, five g's would have ripped that bitch's bikini off.

"absolut geil" is right.

F***, I wanna ride that slide! :)
To correct poster number 5: The max Gs is 2.6, which is in fact the maximum G force that is allowed in germany, as told in the video. The whole video is german btw and not swedish.

was there nip slip action?

People that talk about the loop slide in jersey being a killer or injury prone are idiots. Ride it first, then talk. When I rode it. it was wicked, but fun. There is a trap door at the bottom and if you didn't make it, you would just slide backwards. The tube was tight, so 'you couldn't fall back and break your neck'. You just slide backwards. No one has ever died on that ride. In the park many times, but not that ride.

You couldn't drown anymore than drowning on any other slide.

Why does everyone complain it's not a loop? Did you look at it? It's half loop and half corkscrew, making it way more intense. There's less back tracking instead of a full loss of forward momentum. Loops are boring.

In essence it's the in between of a loop and a corkscrew.
