This “Black Hole” Water Slide Will Warp Your Mind

spiral

Remember that trippy scene toward the end of 2001: A Space Odyssey? The one where the main character is teleported through some other dimension that looks like a kaleidoscope? Well, now you can experience that in real life without having to reset the universe (or whatever it is that happened in that absolutely bonkers movie).

This insane water slide, which can be found at an indoor leisure pool in Bremerhaven, Germany, features colorful LEDs that create different patterns of light as you slide through what would otherwise be complete darkness. The slide is 256 ft. long, which sounds like it would make for a long trip (heh), but is over in less than 15 seconds.

The slide was built in 2012, recreating a former design while adding the insane laser light show for, I would assume, fans of Pink Floyd. I also imagine you’d have to sign a waiver before getting into this thing, because even watching it through a monitor was making my head spin and my stomach flip.

That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be down to jump in, though.
