The World Record for the Longest Distance Travelled on a Slip and Slide in One Hour

Trinity River Vision Authority on Panther Island, Fort Worth, TX has set the Guinness World Record for the longest distance travelled on a slip and slide in on hour, traveling 774,515.09 meters (2,541,060 feet).

The TRVA organisation – which is dedicated to revitalising the Trinity River that runs through Fort Worth – completely shattered the previous record of 41,404.42 metres (135,841 ft) that had been held by Shelby Farms Park Conservancy (USA) since July 2014.

The 1,710 ft slip ’n’ slide was located on Panther Island, Texas as part of Fort Worth-themed festival Pantherfest – TRVA’s Shanna Cate said they wanted to “celebrate Fort Worth’s birthday the right way”, and they certainly achieved something memorable.
