First on-ride POV from Verrückt, World’s tallest Water Slide

Verruckt-frontview

When it opens, Verrückt will be the world’s tallest Waterslide. Schlitterbahn Kansas City hasn’t yet announced an opening day due to a few technical difficulties related to getting the rafts up to the top of the tower efficiently. But they have been testing the attraction’s four-person (mandatory) rafts with sandbags. On one run they added a Garmin Virb to capture the first POV on-ride video.

That’s 168 feet and 7 inches of pure terror. Will you be brave enough to experience this monster?
