I think it would be better in person. might be a whole different kind of excitement to be basically sitting still (or sliding backward) then suddenly jump forward when you have no visual cues of anything changing. maybe even disconcerting.

I agree with both above, interesting idea, terrible design. The lazy river offers more fun and excitement. A water slide should never have pauses, and absolutely should not get so slow it goes backwards. To speed it up enough to be fun would probably make it unsafe. Should have left this one on the drawing room floor.

Cool design/engineering, but as a water slide, seems really boring with little fun/excitement factor.

OK.
Other than "A girlfriend who's always excited to see him" and "A rocking porno movie quality music playing in the car to welcome her"... What's he got that I don't?

Video has surfaced of this cop and his cohorts watching the footage together at the department and laughing about injuring her horrifically, talking about how much fun it was to forcibly wrestle a feeble old woman, repeatedly throw her to the ground, and try to break her shoulder, how much they LOVE it that she was hurt, repeating excitedly and happily "you hear the pop! I thought I broke her shoulder.....I love it."

No good apples.

*quality fun old school 70's song. I would get so excited as a kid when this would come on the radio. Good times.

Yes...yes it is. My mistake. I thought the guy rowing was playing a sit on motorcycle game on my 10" screen, and only saw the bench press at full zoom. D'oh!

So...Maybe they're meatheads and picking things up and putting them down is more exciting than nature to them under any circumstances?

Leads me to believe that if watched in reverse it might be constructive and exciting?

Such a happy nerd day today. Was in a small meeting outside and had this marked in my calendar--after 3.5 hours of talking, suddenly stood up and said we all had to go to a wide screen; masked up and got it up and running 6 minutes before. So many happy nerdy people! So exciting!

WOOT WOOT! That was so exciting. Brings a tear to my eyes.
