This past weekend, Seoul, South Korea, was turned into a giant playground for the 2015 City Slide Festa. The city set up a 350-meter-long water slide on the Yonsei-ro road -that’s almost a quarter mile! The festival also featured other games and amusements and live music.
This kind of festival started about a year ago, and giant water slides have been temporarily set up in cities from Las Vegas to Sydney. See more pictures of the event in a slideshow at the Washington Post. Now what will it take to get something this cool set up for my little town’s local harvest festival? -Thanks, Daniel Kim!

Looks like fun. I'd imagine that a slide set up in San Francisco would be the best, and would eject you into the bay!
