the most balls-out looping german water slide i've ever seen

MINK says...

This is Germany.
Can you even imagine the amount of safety calculation that went into this? You'll be fine.

However, I used to work in a waterpark in England, and they saved money when building it by reducing the size of EVERYTHING, including the water slides, resulting in an escape velocity high enough to shatter the glass of the barrier at the end of the tunnel with your bare legs, and by the way we just tested the water and it says "burns your eyes out" but we aren't going to empty the pool because that would cost money.

D: Nooo.. I went there for the first time a couple months ago; I got cedar fair pass and came from Cedar Point. It was great! No lines and cheaper food and drink. The kids LOVED it. We didn't even touch the waterpark, heh. >.< That makes me really sad.

The World's Tallest Statue - Bronze Buddha in Uttar Pradesh

Westy, based on your comments on other posts I have no idea whether I should take you seriously (or seruysly, or however the hell you think it is supposed to be spelled), but in case I should, or anyone else is wondering why they're doing this, I think it's actually a brilliant way to lift the surrounding community *out* of poverty. They're billing this as an "8th Wonder of the World," which almost certainly means tourists will be visiting. If this is supposed to hold up for 1000 years and costs, lets say, $200M (I'm guessing it'll go overbudget, probably by more than that), they only need it to earn $200,000 every year to break even. Plus interest presumably, but if it's really as incredible as they're billing it to be a sum well over $500k per year should be easy. Potentially they could rent out some office space and make that much, which would also be good for the community, as at the very least there would be some secretarial / temp work; restaurants too.

Hell, they put a good arcade, imax theater, and/or waterpark into it and I'm thinking 2nd honeymoon destination. Oh, and please a "Planet Bollywood" restaurant. This must happen.

Rollerblading in an Abandoned Water Park (Look at 1:25)

Basically, a bunch of guys with inline skates sneaked into White Water in Marietta and filmed themselves and the result is ATL WaterPark Tour 2.

It's better than it sounds.

Honest.
