It almost looks like the breaking on the turn is what caused the crash. The slower speed made the sled go more to the right, which caused it to jump the track on that side. The alternative would have been going faster down that drop though. Not sure how that would have turned out. It's also been a solid 25 years since I rode one of these, so maybe my sense of the physics here is way off. Still looks fun!

"I'd rather die doing something I love or something fun, then getting hit by a car on my way to work, or getting in a car accident."

I spent almost 8 years working on ski lifts and different summer rides similar to this one (kart, bikes, etc...) I don't think this is more dangerous than any other mountain rides or sport, we didn't have that many accident and when we had them it was usually not that bad, just scratches and burns.

They have one of these in Gatlinburg, TN at the Ober park.

[@philliplumpkin6369]

One of the best slides ever honestly and with the amount of people that crash each year I'm surprised it's still open, iv been here a few times and seen some pretty nasty crashes and rug burns even at the end while getting out it's so easy to eat shit the slide is so slippery and so hot especially on a really hot summer day and you have alot of people going down the slide, I remember a little kid burned the shit out of his leg just cause he fell out but man love this place

[@joestr]

Will be a sad day when this thing goes

[@duck-cc4qu]

I am guessing the reason that it hasnt been shut down is because nobody has really been seriously hurt, so there is no reason to remove it

[@walterkoziol3822]

It happened to me. I broke the track record but I left a good part of my right thigh up there in the process. It was nearly the entire site of my right thigh. After the adrenaline rush it hurt, omg did it hurt whenever I tried to fully extend my leg. So I didn't. So my RN mom told me if you don't fully straighten out that leg it's going to get worst. I tried but it just hurt too much cause of the new skin. Over a week and my leg was actually retracting. So one day in the pool I held myself under water and straightened out that leg completely. Most people never felt this kind of physical pain due it being about 60% healed. All that new skin being ripped open. And keeping the leg completely straight for the next few weeks was hell. I learned a very good lesson that day which was to never wear shorts on those slides.

[@brianmck7363]

I fell of this when I was 16 and slid on the cement for about 30 feet before I was able to roll of!! And got 2nd degree burns on my left arm and my left leg and hip! And it happened near the top so I still had to hop back on and coast down to the bottom!! 😓 OUCH!! I believe they changed the track to hard plastic , when I went down 34 years ago it was cement!! It even sounds a little different!!

[@justmeisthatok7990]

I seem to remember THINKING that being concrete also..BUT I believe expansion and contraction every summer and winter would break it up pretty fast so probably just look like concrete it was made out of some kind of acrylic or fiberglass whatever.. seems like when I googled other tracks it was a company that provided like 90% of them in the USA..

[@iRaps1]

Huh?

[@KingConradVI]

I feel that if the slide was bigger and had higher walls, and the slide vehicle was bigger too, there would be a lot less crashes as it would be impossible to be launched out of the slide. Also people could go faster as they are in a more tight slide. That being said, another thing to come with that is the rule of one person sliding at a time, or else any possible crashes could be deadly

[@joestr]

They send people down the slide like every 15 seconds. If you want to go fast, you have to ask the attendant for more time or you catch up to the person infront of you almost immediately.

[@Adam-vj7dn]

Cost is one factor, higher wall means more material more labor more maintenance. The other is if you build the walls higher it just means a greater maximum speed can be achieved before being thrown over. The accidents might be more rare, but they would also be more serious when they do happen. Having a short height wall prevents anyone from gaining to much speed and minimizes the extent of injuries while maximizing profits.

[@yungwildnfree]

better to be launched out of the slide than into concrete Some people really don't think when commenting.🤣

[@gertrude1585]

yea when i saw he was not the only one on the track i realise if the white guys in front of him crashed he could be in real probleme

[@pear-zq1uj]

if the walls are higher, people would just slide inside when they crash

[@brent829]

I crashed on one of these as a kid and your first instinct is to put your hands/arms out. INSTANT FIRE. I could not get myself out of the tube so I just kept sliding. A teenage worker at the bottom sprayed some disinfectant on my missing skin spots and that was that. 20 years later I can still see discolored spots on my arms and knees. Would I do it again? Hell yeah!

[@baddyforall2568]

That's one of a kind ride. Wow. Felt happy as if I went there.

[@Project_Slagharen]

from the ones i've been on so far you could just push the handle all the way down and enjoy, this one kinda looks dangerous

[@joestr]

A little risk makes it more fun.

[@samtansleyphotography]

Did a concrete one of these and came off. Literally the most painful thing i have ever experienced. Skinned myself down to the bone and, even eight years later, my scars haven't recovered. Stay safe!

[@joestr]

The exact same thing happened to me (Lutsen, MN) when these rides first started, I believe in the mid 70's. That drop caught me off guard and I went flying, separating from my sled landing at the bottom. My sprained ankle looked like a grapefruit. No pads and never thought about legal issues. Good times. The starter told us absolutely no racing but we could go side to side as fast as we wanted.

This looks insanely dangerous. Is it?

[@joestr]

No its safe. There is a big brake handle you can pull inbetween your legs at any time. Many kids and older people ride it.

[@NicoleTongue]

I rode the Alpine Slide in NH as many as 28 yrs ago! I was just a kid and I LOVED IT!!!

[@maxglide]

I did this in BlueMountain, Ontario in the 70s. Was so much fun! We would go so fast we would fly out of the track and smack into other people. We eventually got kicked off the track!

[@Fataussie]

[@cjbrunskis9148]

I did the exact same thing when I was seven… But I flipped it at the high bank turn right before the drop off about halfway down the hill. Oh the memories!

[@deanmoncaster]

Why didn't you overtake that guy towards the end?

[@joestr]

I shoulda jumped him

[@jimfree0]

Fantastic run! It looks like you were wall-climbing on the inside corner here (0:33) and that caught the rear right wheel and flipped the cart; was there something on the track? Did you pump the brakes in the turn? Seems like you should have been just coming out of a graceful arc on the outside wall instead of flipping. I ask this so that I have pre-course feel when we line up opposite each other for championship! :)
