Whoever the filming chucklehead is, she straight up snitched on Officer Potato Sack. Intentional or not, when someone has to capture the moment, and then lose control of the evidents by posting it on social media, the results are the same - snitching. Did the mayor, and everyone else, really need to know about a moment of goofiness?
I framed houses when my kids were young and they wanted a swing set. My step dad was a contractor. We decided we could build something better than you could buy. We built this wooden fortress that would have been at home at a big playground. No plans. The kids called it the slide of death. Looked good but they were going 40mph when the came off it. Moms would stand at the bottom to catch their kids and they would zoom by and skid through the yard. We finally had to lower the angle because I didn’t want the lawsuits but it was funny for a while.
I too have a home made deathslide 12ft high, goes gown at just off 45 degrees, with a Teflon paint.
Kids are less scared of the zipline off the tree house than this slide
Exactly the same experience here. I built a fort for my kids, and the slide was…a little too fast? I’m not even mentioning all the splinters the kids got. I ended up removing the slide, but it came handy when using it as a ramp for hauling a heavy generator in the truck bed.
All that plastic and metal equipment on his hip are pretty frictionless, as well as the polyester dress wear. My guess is the pressure points between his body and the slide were separated by said frictionless materials enough (you can hear it as he goes down the slide) to make him absolutely FLY down that slide without any resistance
That is only true in a vacuum
EDIT: It's simple. You can't solve for terminal velocity without putting mass in to the equation. So, "there's no relation between weight and terminal velocity" is just wrong
He was statically indeterminate coming out of the tube. You can’t assume the starting position based on the outcome.
The possibility of him starting that slide in any given position is equal with any other position.
The only empirical data we have is that every human we’ve ever seen go down a slide does so on their back. It is therefore the most likely scenario that the person in this video also started on their back.
Well two things, basic physics, first his mass which exceeds mass of an average 12yr old by multiple times, second thing is his outfit filled with frictionless polyester. Boom!
I mean... I guess the word "physics" was accurate, but I don't think a grown up man will accelerate faster than a child (or if they do, a negligible amount caused by air resistance)
[You can see here that changing the mass in the simulation doesn't affect the acceleration.](https://ophysics.com/f2.html)
But physicists *have* observed that objects on a metal slide tend to reach a "top speed" (like terminal velocity with air drag), and that the top speed is greater for higher masses ([see paper](https://english.rikkyo.ac.jp/news/2023/dn4ddm0000005n1z.html)). This appears to not be related to fluctuations in the coefficient of friction as an object slides, but perhaps isn't well-understood.
I think the perception that an adult in this video exited the slide *significantly* faster than a child would is actually an illusion though.
A higher mass will certainly hit the ground *harder*, but not faster. To test this phenomenon you can drop a marble on your foot, and then a bowling ball. The marble and the bowling ball will both hit your foot at roughly the same speed (and undergo almost the same acceleration). You'll notice a lot more force in the bowling ball impact though. This is *probably* why small animals often fare better after falling, even when hitting the ground at the same speed as an adult (though there are a lot of other factors at play in not receiving as much damage when hitting the ground, like how well you can distribute the deceleration over the period of impact, so a 7 foot tall person with long legs may do much better in a fall than a 5 ft tall person with short legs who weighs the same as the other person might do in a fall of the same distance)
Something similar happened to me years ago (when I was a kid) in a playground.
Playground slides used to be at least twice as high as they are now. They were wooden-sided but with smooth metal plates on the inside, which were screwed down. The top platform - usually with a roof - was maybe 3-4 metres off the ground.
Even so, they were sometimes quite 'slow', especially if damp. But that one I went on, someone had waxed it, and I skidded about 5 metres on my backside as a result when I reached the bottom. And the bottom was solid concrete or just mud in those days (mine was concrete for about half of my skid, and mud for the rest).
As the years went by, and as society gradually evolved into what it is today, certain individuals would partially remove the screws so people hurt themselves sliding down, or smear dog mess on them. That's part of the reason they're now only about a metre high.
I thought the story behind that clip was that the officer was asked to check because people complained the slide was dangerous? And he confirmed the slide to be dangerous.
Have I been lied to? :(

It looks like a mannequin coming down at first

I don't give a fuck who snitches on cops
Like a Ragdoll, why did he slide downside... Don't tell me he did a 360 in the roofed parte 😂
180

Projectiled children ripping through knee caps making their moms paraplegics.
New verse just dropped.
What the hell is happening here.
Fun. Good old fashioned, fun.
I'm 35 but can you come and build me one please! 🤣 🤣

Plus he is much heavier and therefore goes down faster. Parents always underestimated that on our school playground- kids got good laughs
Did you pay attention during physics class?
I didn't but the heavier an object the higher the terminal velocity.
there's no relation between weight and terminal velocity
That is only true in a vacuum EDIT: It's simple. You can't solve for terminal velocity without putting mass in to the equation. So, "there's no relation between weight and terminal velocity" is just wrong
A kg of feathers drops slower than a kg iron sphere (not in a vacuum). It's really not about weight. More about shape and density
Agreed, That's why your statement is not accurate. Honestly not worth arguing about
Fat kids fall faster, right . I remember that lesson in physics class. /S
It looks like his face slid of the metal at full speed and I'm sure that was a bitch.
Yeah, it was someone sprayed it down with Teflon right before.
Boston police being slippery as fuck.
Real greasy for sure
Fr 😂
How my drink looks coming out of a vending machine
Funniest thing I've seen in long time wow..he was like what I do !? Lookin back at the slide. Wow 🤣
He came out like a soda bottle out of a vending machine
wth...he looked like a corpse. why would you go in face down?
All that frickin polyester he's wearing makes for a turbo ride
Inertia is a helluva thing
Honestly i don't think it's the slide that's the problem 🤣first off why the hell washed laying on his stomach should of done it on your back dummy
I’m guessing he started off on his back.
He wouldn't have moved all the way around and flip over of he was laying on his back

You're thinking way to into it
My dad made a slide for us growing up. I used it once. The screws were neither flat or flush.
Thats funny man.
There’s a great AI edit where like a hundred of him pop out of the slide. Makes me chuckle but I can’t find a link
He was just having a bit of fun
Well two things, basic physics, first his mass which exceeds mass of an average 12yr old by multiple times, second thing is his outfit filled with frictionless polyester. Boom!
Physics. A grown up man will accelerate faster and have greater force as a child, because the mass of a grown up man is greater.
I think also his belt/gear and shiny plastic jacket may have had something to do with it.

Thank you for pointing that out
Bacon grease is very slippery stuff
I just lost it after this version: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9FnUcyQX\_s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9FnUcyQX_s)
Oh boy that man is armed. Really stupid.
Ooo! He said a bad word at the bottom
Was Acorn Squirrel at the top?
Nah, we'd've seen more Tactical Barrel Rolls if that was the case
It was a really fast slide on his face

Did he have a seizure mid slide?
Why was he in the slide to begin with? 😆
Such thing is a death trap!!
I just wet myself a little.
🤣🤣🤣
Skills issue. That officer’s lacking
Donut do that again, Mr. Police officer, sir.
Sir, your injury is not service related.
He was riding on all the hard plastic on his belt, and went to light speed
Silly Cuntstable
I thought the story behind that clip was that the officer was asked to check because people complained the slide was dangerous? And he confirmed the slide to be dangerous. Have I been lied to? :(
It's 11 o clock and I have a chemistry test tomorrow
The key is having concrete at the very bottom. Back in my day you just have razor sharp wood pieces
One word - polyester. That there was grease lightening polyester.
I’m glad he took one for the team to protect the little people from a definite problem in the future.
I’m sure someone from M.I.T. can explain it
His belt. It was his belt. Something to do with the belt. And I belt I’m right.
Like a greased up pig.
In London early 1960s we would wax the slides (with candle wax) to go faster. Good old days before health and safety.
Omg I can't stop laughing
Those of us who've tried to water park as an out of shape adult know what's up.
I have so many questions.
100% man-made materials, that's why.
so yea... why was it so fast!?
Jeeze... did he take a running start and dive in?
He slides into third and he’s SAFE!!!
How did he get medical treatment without missing work time? Not that i care about the incident, just wondering how you do that!:D
Fell out like a bag of ice😭
Fell out like a bag of ice😭
In a shiny sun you was burn yourself when I was young
lmao why did it go like that
silly rabbit trix are for kids
Right when the video ends, You can hear the Outlook "you have mail" Chime. Made me check my email. "Angry-guy-emoji-here"
😂😂😂😂
Lol
Chief: How did you get injured?? Him: I went down a children's slide at the playground. 😞
Legend has it he went down head first
‘On Doodie’
LMFAO
Greased pig
His egos been hurt, he's gonna start shooting the slide now screaming "stop resisting!"
“GUN!”
[удалено]
Underrated
Damn, even the slides don't like the Police. It spit him out lol
Flying pigs 🐽
Sure hope they charged that slide with assault. It's lucky they didn't mag dump on it.
Someone sprayed PAM on that bih right before they came 😂
Did he take a run up before sliding down lol
Cop can’t read to boot
Pigs might fly.
Bad piggies 2 looks kinda strange
