15 MOST Dangerous Playgrounds - what were they thinking? 

I grew up in the 1970s through the 1980s. Our playground equipment were ten foot metal slides, big metal jungle gyms, swingsets made of metal plus we had either dirt ground or cement.

Remember the static electricity that zapped you on the slide? ⚡️

I've noticed a pattern over the last few decades, coasters and slides/water slides have gotten more dangerous the bigger they are built. Time to go back to the basics when it comes to stuff like this for kids. The CLOSEST I have seen to the Grater Slide was a park that had Grater Steps leading to the stainless steel slide.

Most of these aren’t dangerous but still fun to watch

I don't care what anyone says, that slide in Spain that connects and cuts off walking time is brilliant. And really cool as well.

abandoned amusement parks are some of the creepiest things imaginable 😥😥😥

Back in the early 70s my elementary school had a 12 ft high metal slide on a concrete playground.I fell and busted my head open 6x before they wouldn't let me play on it anymore.lol.

His voice sounds so familiar Oh he is the voice of simple history

We used to have one of those multi lane long ripple slides here, but it got closed down and I can see why. You'd often get good air on some of the bumps, but then you wouldn't land squarely in your lane when you came down

I got burns and welts on my thighs from those hot metal slides as a kid

Action park in New Jersey is still open. Just operates under a different name...

The most fun I had as a kid wasn't particularly safe, but you learn to risk assess and be mindful of heat, height, what's around you etc. But even the most boring playgrounds kids can still hurt themselves, it just happens.

I remember when I was a kid, about 4 years old, going down a steel playground slide and had a big drop off at the end ( about a ten inch drop ). I landed on the ground on my tailbone and balled my eye out, lol. I can still feel the pain whenever I see those steel slides at playgrounds, lol.

Remember at my school that I used to go to had a snake slide but they replaced it with monkey bars benches and a ladder

The cheese grater slide is so dangerous I would never go down it

I used to have a swing above an active railroad Luckily I never fell of

Now I’m scared to even tough a playground

That slide in Spain looks fun, they should just lengthen it and put a some kinda Matt at the bottom

I almost had a heart attack when I saw the child is gonna slide through a grate slide (Those artist are cool thou for being the one making society more Intresting lol) XD

The real thing that we need to be figuring out is that who designed these dangerous slides!?

The playgrounds when I was a kid in the 80s were tarmac with a sprinkling of broken glass, heavy swing seats that would smack you in the head if you slid off as were very worn hard plastic, aaah happy days

5:20 I walked past that park when I visited lithuania.

Is it just me or is his voice relaxing lmao

A GULAG train! OMG. How cool is that? I’m packing for my trip (though I realize the guards will confiscate anything I bring...)

5:20 If you flip that merry go round over, that is the same kind that was at my elementary school. For the exception of the thin ring with the square iron rods. I was the kid that got in the middle and spun it till all the other kids fell off. xD

I can hear someone going down the cheese greater slide

The Glenwood Caverns swing is pretty fantastic.

I still remember when I was in first grade we were having recess while the fourth graders were doing gym class outside and there was this tower with a rope that you could slide if I had to explain it it looked like one of those poles you'd see firefighters go down and one of the fourth graders went down the rope but then fell and cracked there head open it was so bad that multiple ambulances had to come.

Who else thought the whole time: " The paaaaaaiiiiiinnnn😥!!!!! "

OMG A KID LOST HIS ARM ON A SLIDE? how does that even happen ajhfkwfkwja 😭😭

Well now I'm never going to a playground in the summer

Literally laughed out loud watching those people pinball down then launch off the end of that “time saving” slide

I like the cheese grater for children lol

me looking at the thumbnail: *oh no theyre going to grate the child*

I would have been disappointed if Class Action Park wasn't included on this list. At #5, I'm impressed, and yes, I've had been several times. Fortunately my only injuries were scraped knees.

My town used to have this huge metal slide that went down in a circular motion. The very top was like 20 ft off the ground. When I was a kid, instead of going down the slide, I would slide down the support beams on the side of the slide. It was like sliding down a firefighter pole. Of course, this was very dangerous and was probably the reason they took it down lol

That thumbnail wtf ahah

@3:39 I never laughed so hard in my life (I gotta stop smoking)😂🤷🏽‍♂️

I always had a fear of the monkey bars when I was out for recess and stupid me chose to go on there and I fell and everyone that was at recess stopped playing and went over and circled around me and my friends were laughing and I was crying and the teacher came over and I was like she was like what is going on and then my friends told her then I told her but she already knew what was happening so she got kind of annoyed and I went to the office and got a Band-Aid and I told my parents after and I was well after

Me: Looking at the playground Can we go 😅

I recently went to pigeon forge Tennessee and didn’t have time to do alpine coasters but we did Dollywood which was great

A primary ground to learn how to dodge risks in lives.

One time I went on a ride where it's like a twister where you sit in a cart and it goes around really fast but it lifts up so you can see the ground and I felt myself slipping, it was scary but also a cool ride

When I was a kid I was always exploring abandoned places so I can't really talk

I remember in the 5th grade I tripped over the top side of the slide that was maybe 10 feet high and fell face first into a patch of ice

I went on the older version of the cliff swing over the Colorado river!!! When I went on it it wasn’t steel arms but just cables! I saw the pictures from my ride and I was shocked at the flimsy appearance of the swings cables! Sitting on the side that makes you look straight down is a crazy experience when the cliff just disappears and you’re staring straight down a couple thousand feet to the river below! We spotted the swing from the river when my family was white water rafting! Quite the adrenaline fix I had that day!!!

I almost broke my neck from going to an old go cart racing place the go carts where old and not well taken care of and the plastic body of the go cart of the guy ahead of me fell onto the wheel and stoped his go cart in front of me going abought 15 miles per hour and the seat belt of my go cart sinched up around my neck

Kid:I am ready to go to a playground and risk my own life

I wasn’t expecting Lithuania to be in here !!!thanks dude

:02 If one looks closer enough, one can see that there is an obvious place where a service building was, and where it obviously was removed.

We lived in Baltimore Maryland for a few years and near our house a school built the most elaborate amazing playground I’ve ever seen except you couldn’t get on it after 10:30 in the morning because children were getting second-degree burns..

My mum had a friend who went on a toboggan and fell off on the flat She is a teacher so we still don’t know how she did it 🤣

Winter at school was amazing when sliding bc we would put snow on the slides and wear ski pants and go down the slide at 150mph and fly off the end wickedly

I love your thumbnails more every day! xD

@14:00 my brother in law rode that looping water slide! He said it was horrible and he didn't make it over, so he just got slammed around inside and wound up crawling out! We called Action Park "Traction Park" cause of all the injuries lol.

I feel like I remember going down a cheese grater slide. The metal was super hot, and it hurt!

Shijingshan Amusement Park: *says it haves the most dangerous amusement park* Action Park: Hold my deaths

Even though the holes on the cheese grater slide are optical illusion I still don't trust who made it

Reason why dadipark is dangerous: A kid got his arm ripped off on the rides.

The name of this channel is called top five but they started off by 15?

Omg canyon swing is so fun

I don't care if playground equipment is hot, I sit on those swings😎

i would never go on something i need to sigh a waver for no thank you lol

A cheese grater slide. I guess you could go down on a cheese blanket and grate cheese in the process. Might have to be a good chunk though.

I've actually been on the Alpine coaster and it's not as bad as you would think

Bro what was they even doing making playgrounds on dangerous shuff anyways?

I literally died laughing when I saw the playset with the slide to death in the beginning

We had two metal slides (now removed) (1) 1000 foot slide that became highly polished, depending on weight or clothing would hit high speeds & become airborne on the several humps. .. .. (2) 1 mile Toboggan slide which used a wheeled sled with a pull handbrake, that relied on the rider to slow for corners. Riders were launched off steep bends if brake was not used. Neither had any age or size restrictions.

I love that Alpine coaster I have been on it it’s so fun don’t touch it till you try it and I have severe anxiety and I’ve gone on it and I loved it it’s not that dangerous

I remember burning my hands on a metal slide that had been absorbing the suns rays all day.

Action park was made by no experienced pre-teens so that’s when wrong

Everyone wants to go to Disney world where I want to go to a fossil mine

3:46 Hey! That's the pic of Mimaland Mimaland is the first theme park in my country, Malaysia 🇲🇾 The theme park is since 1972-1997 it was abandoned This isn't a joke

On the ten spin at my 1st-5th grade school in first grade I went on the thing after they went fast 3 times and every time I was nearly bleeding after they made it so nobody can play on it anymore because of corona (also nobody ever believed me when I told them that you can nearly bleed from it)

I still think there is a actual big cheese grader on the slide

There’s one reason everyone should go to pigeon Forge Tennessee, Dollywood!

don't these countries have any health and safety rules 😂

I love this video 👍👍

12:46 they should only have one car and lower the max speed

I, remember, hearing about this.

Dadipark looks like pure nightmare fuel

Every time I go on a slide, I get static shocked!!! That’s why I don’t go on them anymore.

I once went to an alpine coaster and it was so much fun

I heard rumors that Action Park soon got the nickname “Accident Park”. I’m wondering if those rumors are true & if someone could verify that.

PLAYGROUND NOT AMUSEMENT PARK

We used to make clubhouses in the woods with old shit we'd find.. Name it and everything! Chillin on an old ass couch im just NOW questioning the origin of... Good times no phones either!

alot of the cheese grader slides are made not exactly for playing but as art peices the meaning of "the more you push the worse it gets" something like that

I've been to pidgin fordge Tennessee and it wasn't that bad

me when see a kid injured at a slide: CALL AN AMBULANCE CALL AN AMBULANCE!

That's actually, pretty cool 😎.

Are these people tryna kill us with the slides 👁👄👁

Smokey mountains alpine coaster 10/10 would ride again👍

I ever play the swing in the edge of the world

That swing on the edge of a cliff is totally safe but the speaker just overestimates how dangerous it is

i’ve rode the the longest alpine coaster in pigeon forge and it was so fun to ride!

I was once in a not covered playground when it was 40° C and I slided and it was so hot but luckily I didn't get hurt, because the playground was in water park so I ran to the water.

Geez I went down a cheese slide and my legs started to bleed and I just went again 🤣

The cheesegrater slide was my favorite wait it's real? i was just joking

The cheese grater slide is clearly a photoshop.

Classic russia😂how are they still a country
