Pic: The panic-inducing view from the top of the world’s tallest waterslide

[Jazzy]

Standing a little short of 140 feet, it is just about higher than what is currently the tallest water slide in the world, the aptly named Insano in Brazil, which is 135 feet high and sends those brave enough to give it a whirl pummeling towards the water at around 62 miles per hour.

Those brave enough to go on the Meg-a-Blaster will be travelling at even more frightening speeds of over 70 miles per hour and if the information about the height and the speed weren't enough, just have a look at the picture from the top:

Would you go on this slide?

 

[Nebulous]

Sure! I am a thrill seeker, looks very scary though.

I know it's still under construction, but where's the water you're landing in!

More importantly, how do they prevent people from falling off? Or falling to their deaths on the slide, for that matter.

Uh. At the end...

No thanks!

I don't see any water at the end, do you?

...I thought I did...

I see what looks like a trampoline at the end of the slide. I also see a small stream off on the right side. Maybe you hit the trampoline and then bounce into the stream!
