Remember what I said about the world's tallest waterslide?

[Mike_Yates]

Remember when I made a thread saying that the world's tallest waterslide was a tragedy waiting to happen?

It turns out that I was right.

I'm betting that the slide gets shut down if one more person dies because of it.

I read elsewhere he was decapitated when he hit a fence.

Then vultures swooped down and started tearing the body apart in front of anguished family members.

Can you imagine sliding against that netting at 65mph?
There would be slices of you hurled all over the place.

According to the Kansas City Star only people 14+years old and 54+inches tall should be allowed on the ride.
The fact that his father is a state rep might have something to do with the fact he was on the ride in the first place .

Everyone who goes on the slide is risking their life.

 

[domroger]

Life's a risk .
Staying in bed or getting out of it is risky ,but we still do it .

Would rather risk my life running errands than build a bunker and never leave it.




What was that kid doing on it in the first place, indeed.

 

[FknNemesis]

I find this much more irresponsible than a safety approved [well one hopes it was] waterslide.

In a challenging descent, as was said by most track reviewers even before first cyclists practised on it, why those kerbs?

Apparently she suffered a broken spine. Well done, Rio 2016, well done.

He did not meet the safety requirements, specifically age. What was he doing on the slide?

Reported your post for underage sexual reference, btw. You are disgusting.

Judging from your alliances and the witty people that you admire, I'm taking it as a compliment.

I took the liberty of fixing your post into a more proper format...

Turnabout is fair play, I suppose.

Normally, it's Queerbait (d/b/a Hashtag) modifying the words in quotes of others.

true lol ...
This forum is strange. There are quite a few things about it that make one want to just give it up. But there are also so many hidden gems so to speak - posters with certain personalities, unique sense of humour and perspectives on life -. Overall, it's so worth it.

Whom do you think I admire here? I come here to waste time. It is not a source of friendship for me, like it clearly is for you. Praps that is why you read so much more into the posts than what is actually there.

My social life, like most here I believe, involves real people in the real world. This is just for fun. Making you dance can be fun sometimes.

When you ruminate on like this, it is so strange. Get a life off of this forum. You will be much happier overall. Log off. Seek medical intervention.
