World's wildest water rides

Starting its water jets today and launching itself into the record books in the process is Mammoth, the longest watercoaster in the world measuring in at a mammoth 1,763ft long (one-third of a mile).
Like Wildebeest, the previous holder of this title, Mammoth uses cutting-edge hydromagnetic technology to propel six-person inflatable boats at breakneck speeds along a series of rollercoaster-like uphill climbs followed by fast downward plunges. The ride begins with a 300ft conveyor "lift hill" followed by a series of drops, including one three-storey drop while you're tilted at a 45-degree angle.

This is a baby compared to the one I loved to go on as a child back in 1986 and onward, when we were on family holidays in Florida at a brilliant park called 'WaterMania' ,sadly this park closed in 2005 but my memories of a slide that was called the 'Screamer' that was 72ft of a free fall water speed slide,no mats,no inflatables just you,water and a drop high enough to help if you were constipated!
Great buzz,even greater memories!

Have been on the Aqualoop at Terme 3000 and it is a thrill ride BUT IT GETS NOWHERE NEAR 262ft per second. 262ft per second is 288km/h or approximately 180 MILES PER HOUR.
Seems MSN's thought censors will not let me post this as it appears similar to spam.
Spam sausages whateva, why are MSN terrified of the facts as opposed to purely making things up. Well let's try again.
