The ideal vacation is a concept that everyone understands in their own way. For some, an imposing pastime on the beach is optimal, while others get real pleasure from an active or even extreme vacation.

The heart beats faster, every second a huge portion of adrenaline is released into the blood, and in the meantime the brain seems to turn off, but the colorfulness of sensations does not decrease from this! Believe me, you will have enough impressions for many years if you dare to conquer the largest water slide in the world!

Summit Plummet

In a water park called Disney Blizzard Beach, which is located in Florida, there is one of the most extreme water slides - about 37 m in height. Despite the fact that the summer here is always sunny and quite hot, those who want to go down the Summit Plummet will find snowdrifts on the top and along the entire route, because of which this attraction looks rather unusual and looks more like a ski jump. But since the snow is artificial, the probability of freezing something for yourself is reduced to zero.

To climb the Summit Plummet you do not have to make any special efforts - there is a cable car for this. And if the climb is easy, then it is at the top of the water slide that you will have a very hard time. Why? Because you need to have nerves of steel to sit in a narrow gutter, let go of your hands and ... experience an incredible feeling when you are rapidly falling down at a speed of 100 km / h. Ready? Then Summit Plummet is waiting for you!

For more than 15 years, this slide has held the proud title of the highest water slide in the world. Its height is 41 m and it is located in the water park, which bears the name of Fortaleza Beach Park. And if you have planned your vacation in the Brazilian resort of Fortaleza, then you simply do not have the right to pass by its luxurious attraction, which is listed in the Guinness Book of Records.

Insano is a water slide that not everyone dares to slide down. Its descent is almost vertical, and in height it is equivalent to a 14-storey building. Anyone who dares to climb to the top of this Brazilian attraction will be able to find out what a bird's eye view is and fully enjoy the surrounding landscape.

But the view of the coast and the port city is not the main thing! You are at the top and now you should gather all your will into a fist and make a real flight down. Its duration does not exceed 7 seconds, but due to the huge speed, which is about 105 km / h, the sensations are incredible! During this short time you will experience amazing, incomparable feelings!

Verruckt

But the biggest dose of adrenaline awaits you in Kansas City, where the Verrückt water slide awaits all the madmen in a park called Schlitterbahn. Only real daredevils are able to agree to this adventure, since this slide is not only the highest in the world, but also one of the most extreme. By agreeing to this flight, you get several pleasures at once:

• fast travel on a water slide;
• an incredible track design that wags like rails on an American roller coaster;
• amazing turns that make you fall down and immediately soar up.

And all this happens at an incredible speed, which reaches 120 km / h. The highest section of the Verrückt water slide is 52 m. And when compared with well-known buildings, then, for example, the Statue of Liberty will be half a meter lower than this attraction. The same can be said about some other world attractions, such as the Tower and Niagara Falls - they are also inferior in height to this amazing water slide.

In order to reach the top of the Verrückt you will need to overcome 264 steps. At the top, risk-takers are already waiting for rubber rafts, each of which can accommodate 3 people. And then only a dizzying flight from the height of a 17-storey building and another 180 m of incredible extreme! At the same time, the first fall is not the only one - immediately after it, you will be lifted to a height of about 5 floors and carried further along a narrow and, as it seems to many, an endless chute.

Do you want to tickle your nerves? Then you are on the highest water slide in the world!
