im sure some of you are familiar with the water park attraction called water world california?

its been concords first main attraction for decades and has been providing family fun for almost everyone. people from everywhere would come here to cool of durring the summer, but durring winter it would close until the next season always brining something new and attracting over thousands of people. on june 2nd, 1997 a group of highschool students from napa attempted to break a world record for the most riders on a slide they called the banzai pipeline. this slide stood 6 stories high right below the even bigger slides called the cliffhanger. about 33 students marched up the wooden tower pushing and shooving through the tiny vessel ignoring every liabilty or instruction made by the lifeguard on duty. one by one they all slid down the closed pipe creating a big plug trapping the students, but never made it all the way. half way down the slide burst open from the bottom plumeting the 33 students 6 stories high. all of them where injured except for one student. a 17 year old girl who fell last as she was heading down the tube right when it was breaking. she fell out hitting concrete head first. she died that day on the way to the hospital. after that whole incident people began questioning "are water slides safe?" from there on water world took a turn for the worst. sales went down and something had to be done. but after another season things soften down. people began to worry less and take more precautions and by that time so did the park, by putting up more discriptive signs and adding more vigilance to the park and its visitors things got off good besides having to change companies like 3 times and changing their name along with it.

may 2011. this is the month i applied at water world california. it was a good start pay was alright but too much work. everyone that works there doesnt really get along to well at times. it always has to be somone not likeing someone or just because they are assholes. by the mid season mostly around june-july me and my co-workers would start to see and notice some verry strange things. since we are the only ones that close the park we would always be told about it. knowing that i still walked under the same slide they fell from.
