The world’s tallest water slide feels like jumping off the Empire State Building!
By MOOK Scenic Spots Family Travel Life Network Editorial Department
Love thrills? Try the world’s highest water slide and experience the extreme rush of diving from the top of the Empire State Building—without the plane crash. This slide is located at Schlitterbahn Waterpark in Kansas, USA. To ride it, you first have to climb a 264-step staircase, reaching a staggering vertical height of 168 feet 7 inches (about 51 meters)—even taller than the Statue of Liberty and Niagara Falls. Just imagining it can make your knees weak.
