Make a 60 foot slip and slide from your parents roof when they are not home!

I wonder how they got the swimming pool in the right place? Did They try it with no pool?
Did they try it with a huge foam pad? Just luck? Did they send down something else on the slide?

That's why some people are having kids later in life, so that they are retired and home all day by the time the kids start doing this.
Anyways that slide was awesome! and I thought I did crazy stuff when my parents went on vacation.
Oh, I could SO do that with my backyard...
You men, I tell ya... you get bored and think of this kind of stuff. :D
Pfft. We dug a pool in our backyard one summer. Yes, I said dug. Dig dug. With shovels. Used an old pool liner patched with duct tape.

If you watch carefully, the kid at the bottom who high fives the first slip-n-slider has his arm in a sling. It looked like quite a few of them were over or under shooting the pool.

I made a pool in the bed of my truck for a Jimmy Buffett concert. I'll have to see if my brother has pics.

That would be amusing. I need entertaining this afternoon...

You're presuming that they will live that long. I'm not so sure.

Don't need a test. You can ask the fine folks here about me. They know me much better than someone who has posted here a total of 4 times (and showed his true colors on the third post).
Do us all a big favor and go crawl back into whatever spider hole you were hiding in. Thanks. Bye.

Just absolutely great - they had to have a line for miles with this weather. Imagine if the parents were checking out YouTube on evening and saw their house!!!

This reminds me of some of the play structures my brother and I "built" using construction materials we found when ABC was building an office near our apartment. We had a couple of giant cardboard tubes about 5' high, 1.5 feet wide and about 1/2" thick or so. We put those on the floor, piled some giant beanbags on top then giant cardboard boxes from the construction site on top of that. My brother and I would sit inside the respective cardboard boxes and move our structure around my pushing on the ceiling which we were only a few inches away from. (that's how big our structures were). We staged "fights" to see who could keep their structure intact the longest.
