How did they figure out where to put the pool?

I have no idea what a huge waterslide jump has to do with Microsoft Office but I’d damn near buy anything a company was selling after that dude landed in that tiny pool.

Wow, three buckets of water were enough to wet that whole slide?

Why is everyone taking this so seriously?

The hill is not high enough WRT the ramp. In second 11 freeze frame you can see the outline of where the ramp’s photo was stitched in. The stuntman would need way more than 3 feet of water to break/brake his impact.

So why is this viral?

Excellent!

What about the guy with his arm in a sling...the original test pilot?

The guy is allegedly moving forward at a decent clip when he hits the water but the water in the pool splashes up and not outward in the direction the guy was traveling in. No way this is real. Funny and creative, but not real.

I agree, too much noise from the cloth suit when he was in the air between the two slides.

I can't believe this film is real, but I couldn't find any seams in the film where it might have been edited. Also, the diver/pilot moves (slightly) as he travels through the air...evening balling up just before landing.
