  (#14) Leap Of Faith - Atlantis Paradise Island

  Oh, just a nice little jaunt down the water slide - OMG ARE THOSE SHARKS?!? This 60-foot tall Mayan temple slide is located at the Atlantis Paradise Island resort in the Bahamas. It's an almost-vertical drop that ends only after you are propelled through a shark-infested lagoon in a glass tube at breakneck speed.

  (#12) Nemo 33 - Uccel, Belgium

  Once the deepest pool in the world, this massive indoor swimming facility lets divers drop 113 feet into the bowels of the earth. And because its non-chlorinated water is temperature-regulated, you don't need a wetsuit. Nemo 33 also boasts simulated underwater caves, pits, and platforms to make your dive even more of an adventure.

  (#8) Insano - Beach Park

  Insano at Beach Park near Fortaleza, Brazil, once earned itself a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the tallest water slide in the world. At 14 stories high, riders can reach speeds of up to 65 miles per hour as they fall the entire length of the slide in just a few seconds. This is one of those drops in which you leave your stomach at the start of the ride and it only catches up to you after you've splashed to a stop in the pool below.

  (#6) Cage Of Death - Crocosaurus Cove

  At Crocosaurus Cove in Darwin, Australia, you have the opportunity to spend 15 minutes in an attraction they've becomingly called the Cage of Death. Fortunately, it's not really a cage; it's more of a glass enclosure. You start out dangling above the crocodile pen before being lowered into the water for an up-close-and-personal encounter with the crocs. Oh, and the crocs are usually fed while you're in there so they are as "active" as possible for your visit. Lucky you.

  (#5) The Golden Nugget Pool - Golden Nugget Las Vegas

  At first glance, the pool at the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas looks fairly normal, if not a little luxurious. The pool itself is round, and in the center is a large aquarium filled with ocean life. So, you can swim with the fishes without all that nasty touching of the fishes. But the main feature of the pool is its water slide, which turns into a glass tube that shoots straight through the center of the aquarium. Sounds innocent and fun enough, right? Well, consider this: The aquarium is actually filled with sharks.

  (#3) The Cannonball Loop - Action Park

  Quite possibly the worst water slide ever conceived, the Cannonball Loop that used to stand at Action Park in Vernon Township, New Jersey, is exactly what the name implies: a water slide with a loop in it. The slide was only open for a month in the summer of 1985, after which it was permanently closed because of the amount of injuries. Some people didn't quite make the loop and fell off the top, because of, you know, gravity. Other, more fortunate souls (just?) had their backs scratched up by all the sand and dirt that collected at the bottom of the loop by, again, gravity. Also, confoundingly, there was no pool at the bottom of the slide. Disoriented and often injured Cannonball-ers were greeted by nothing more than a wet mat to stop their downward trajectory.
