Insano, Water slide in Fortaleza, Brazil
Insano is a water slide in Fortaleza that rises 41 meters high and features an almost vertical drop into a landing pool. The structure was engineered to deliver an intense descent that lasts only a few seconds.
The slide opened in 1989 and quickly became recognized as one of the world's most daring water attractions. It has maintained its reputation as an extreme ride ever since.
Visitors from around the world come here seeking an extreme thrill and a chance to test their courage against gravity. The slide has become a pilgrimage site for those who want to experience something few people ever attempt.
Riders must follow strict safety rules, including sliding on their backs with arms and legs crossed throughout the descent. This position is required to ensure safety during the brief but intense ride.
The ride reaches speeds around 105 kilometers per hour and lasts just about four seconds from top to bottom. During this brief moment, riders experience a sense of weightlessness before splashing into the water.
