How do they keep people from falling off open water slides?

218 views

Most waterslides allow you to go at high speeds, but I’m curious how they prevent people from falling off even when the wall of slide doesn’t really go high up to catch people? Of course, there are people with different masses and heights, and also different clothes, so how do they calculate the necessary measurements such as water pressure, friction or slide length to keep people from falling off open water slides?

1. Pick an upper and lower limit and don’t allow people outside that range ride it.
2. Design a little past that range anyway
3. Buy insurance
