So a zip line is dangerous, but a 120mph log jam ride is perfectly safe? I like it. Isn't it a month and two days or so late?In Stauffer's plan, the skiffs will accelerate to 80 to 120 mph, but don't worry. "It'll all be perfectly safe," he assures viewers, "because it will be on a one-way water slide."
Stauffer added that "once it's built, I wouldn't be surprised if people planned vacation trips to Portland/Vancouver just to ride the water slide. People will come from all over the world just to have the thrill of getting in a skiff and sliding off the 30th floor and accelerating to a very fast speed."
Is Stauffer serious about his plan? It's possible. When asked by a Facebook commenter how he felt about a zip line solution, he (or his campaign) responded: "LOL. I love the way people are responding with imagination, but no, a zip line off the top of a 30th floor would probably be a little dangerous."
Remember, a vote for Stauffer is a vote for water slides. It is not, however, a vote for zip lines.
You know the internet is a series of tubes, right?They should just build giant tubes that go across and build giant cannisters like they have at the bank drive up and shoot the people through the tubes with air pressure, they could even make it go underwater...

I grew up here and remember the equal parts urine, water, and chlorine at Celebrity Sports Center off Colorado.Anyone remember the Hydrotubes at Eastport Plaza in SE Portland from back in the 80's?
We found a zipline in costa rica, the last line was about 500' of vertical, they said riders can get up to 50mph. I don't remember if it was vista los suenos or rainforest adventures. I think it was los suenos. My sister doesn't like heights and freaked the fuggout when she realized that the zipline was treetop-treetop most of the way, and those bitches swayed in the wind. She didn't ask any questions during the 'safety meeting'. Real safety meeting not cheef sesh.I would shoot the tubes. I would also zipline. I would probably get hurt doing both. Or either. Take your pick.
I wouldn't shoot the tubes if the water weren't AT LEAST 80*F, though. Yeah, like that.
As long as it's built like a bad ass Hot Wheels track with loops and a gap jump, I'm down.And this....as crazy as it sounds.....is exactly why I am attracted to Oregon.
