One of my daughters was badly injured on a fraternity slip 'n' slide several years ago. The slip 'n' slide was stationed on a hill and was aimed down into a lake and mostly the riders did end up where they were supposed to. My daughter (a dance team member) and a cheerleader went down at the same time (it was a wide, homemade one). They sailed out further into the air than they were "supposed" to (maybe because they were so light?) and landed sitting up on a submerged stump.
Both were hurt badly and didn't dance/cheer for months. The fraternity paid all the bills, which were huge.
Please don't have Slip 'n' Slide parties!
