The tallest waterslide in America is geared up to open over Memorial Day Weekend and looks to offer a terrifying ride to those who dare.
Standing 145 feet tall, The Rise of Icarus with not one but five slides is set to begin operating at Mt Olympus Water & Theme Park in Wisconsin.
‘As the Greek myth goes, Icarus soared too close to the sun on wings fastened to his body with wax, with the heat of the sun melting the wax and Icarus falling to the sea,’ states the theme parks’ website.
