Kansas City's Verrückt Water Slide

On a hot summer day, when you're sitting at home trying to keep cool, do ever think about going to Kansas, MO? Yeah, most people don't. If you're looking for a fun day in the sun Kansas might just be the place to be this summer, well that is if you're not afraid of heights. On May 23, 2014 Verrückt Water Slide, the worlds tallest water slide will be open for business. You may have heard that Brazil's Insano is the worlds tallest water slide, but not for long. Verrückt is 17-stories high, which means, Verrückt beat Brazil's water slides height by 3-stories. So, like I said if you're afraid of heights, like me, this may not be the water slide for you, which is why I do not plan on getting on that slide anytime soon, but hey, I'm sure there will be plenty of others who would enjoy it! If you're wondering who the creator of this "insane" slide is, that would be Mr. Jeff Henry. Jeff is also known as the 'Wizard of Water' for his insane water rides.
