The dude spinning around on the standing slide before doing a flip into the water is an absolute champ.

I don't know what amazes me more. The fact that the design of that stand up slide was approved. Or that reporter deciding to ride it again after nearly giving himself concussion the first time around.

The employee who rode the slide when he shouldn't and got paralysed only has himself to blame. Can't believe he could sue for his own stupidity.

If anyone was curious about the fare of this water park still, as of 2021 it was listed for sale again

The moment I heard "water slide - stand up style" I knew this was going to end badly.

I always feel sad when looking at old abandoned theme/water parks. Seeing footage of them before (in adverts, home movies etc) and seeing them as they are now - empty and overgrown - makes me think about all the good times people had there. All the childhood memories and happiness associated with a small plot of land, lost to time. Six Flags New Orleans is a good example of this - lots of footage coming out of that old park from urban explorers.

that employee winning a lawsuit after willingly going down a slide after closing is INSANE

Ah the Seventies. Where you could smoke on a plane, drive a car with no seatbelts, hold your baby in your arms in the front seat, and walk out onto the tarmac and board your plane with no security checks.

My family visited Lake Dolores at least 10 times in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Yes… it really was the “Action Park of the West”. But, that’s the way the 70’s were back then. It was the age of “Play At Your Own Risk” and “Resulting Activity could cause great bodily injury or death”.
