Horror stories of faulty equipment and unsafe conditions of the Verruckt, a popular Kansas City water slide, have continued to emerge following the horrific death of 10-year-old boy Caleb Schwab on Sunday.
Sending shock waves around the world, many have been left wondering if the senseless tragedy might have been avoided.
Now heart-stopping footage of a test raft flying into the air has emerged.
“My 9YO rode this less than two weeks ago. He met the height requirement but nobody asked for age and I didn’t know it was 14, or he wouldn’t have gone on it!” Erin Swift Oberhauser shared on Facebook this week, going on to say that her husband Paul also had a less than safe experience.
