Here's the opening descent performed on the verrückt water slide, the new attraction of the Schlitterbahn water park in Kansas City. As its name promises, which means "crazy" in German, the structure is thrilling: 52metri height (equivalent to a 17 floors building) and a top speed of 105km/h. Yet this madness attracts hundreds of people!!
