French water park
Me and my school class were sent off to a French water park as some form of Holiday. All was fine until one of our class members realised that one of the water slides was unmanned with no supervisor or staff member in charge.

The problem with an unmanned slide is that when you're about twelve years old, health and safety isn't really a priority. So ten minutes later that's when the injuries occured. One of the fat kids decided he'd try and 'stay inside' the tube, by clinging to the sides. Next, two or three lads decided to go down head first, then I decided to go in, followed by a girl with very sharp toe nails. And so forth.

The resulting injuries consisted of two burst noses, a clawed back, a near-drowning when everyone was spurted out and also the lad who decided to wait at the bottom of the slide (so he could slap who ever was coming out of the slide exit) - well he suffered a testicular injury as his groin was at head / foot height.

There's nothing quite like the claustrophobia of being jammed inside an orange tube, with several screaming children, mixed in with hysterical laughter and a girl with sharp toe nails.

We got banned from that particular slide.

Yeah, I saw that episode of The Simpsons too.

Sure you did.
But this was real.
