World's tallest, fastest, steepest waterslide under construction

KANSAS CITY (WITI) -- Thrillseekers looking for a vacation destination for next spring or summer may want to pencil in Kansas City's Schlitterbahn waterpark. It will be home to the world's tallest, fastest and steepest waterslide. It's called "Verrückt."

This is one monster of a waterslide soaring about 17 stories into the air. Those who dare to ride it will sit in a raft that holds four people. Take a look at some of the pictures and a video trailer of this beast just below.
