It's amazing how small the rescue vessels look in the photo when in reality, they're HUGE.

Now THAT's cool. I was looking at the instructions for the chutes when i was running along the track. Cool system, would be fun to buy for the house for parties :D

I saw those chutes in action on the "World's biggest cruise ship" special, and they look terrifying. I'm not afraid of heights or thrills, but I would be so scared of getting stuck in the fabric somewhere in the middle. I am not generally claustrophobic, but that would send me over the edge being cocooned in that fabric and unable to go up or down.

That would make a GREAT excursion! :D They could sell tickets AND promote safety at the same time! ;)

Looks like they might have replaced the chute after use... so check ebay for "used chute" sales in Ft Lauderdale!! :)
