How charming! Slides for adults! That could never happen in the USA because of fear of litigation.
Yeah. In the Netherlands is very difficult (if not impossible) to sue something like Starbucks if you're stupid enough to spill hot coffee all over yourself (or in this case break your legs going down a slide like this).
They need to remove that bar - it looks like a pain. Also, the speed gain doesn't seem that much with just one set of steps. It would work much better for 2 or more sets. I would imagine more people would use it if it were longer.
Haha the subtitle for the first sentence in the second video is not what he's saying at all, he's just saying there's a slide on the train station. Made me laugh though!
HN or reddit?
