    Visitors take part in a world record attempt at watersliding at Europabad in Karlsruhe, Germany, Aug. 6. Since this morning, adults and children have been sliding down the 170 meter long slide in the indoor pool on an inflatable rubber tube.

    By Katie Cannon, Senior Multimedia Editor

    I came across a translated page from the water park, and as far as I can tell, whether or not a world record was secured will be announced Sunday, Aug. 7. Check out Europabad's page here.
