New water park explodes into massive fireball in Sweden

A raging inferno erupted at a new water park in Sweden on Monday, with flames decimating a number of under-construction outdoor waterslides and related facilities, authorities said.

The massive blaze ripped through several yet-to-be-opened waterslides, including one with a drop of 43 feet, at the Oceana waterpark in Goteberg — sending plumes of black smoke over Sweden’s second-largest city.

Harrowing footage shot by witnesses showed the slides, which had been scheduled to open in the coming months, engulfed by flames as several firefighting vehicles descended on the area.

At least three explosions sent debris from nearby buildings scattering over the burning waterslides.

The waterpark is a new addition to Gothenburg’s Liseberg funfair — one of the Nordic region’s biggest amusement parks.

There has been a lot of 'sploding lately!

If built right, WATER parks do NOT catch FIRE.

You really have to eff things up badly for a water park to erupt into an inferno.

Import a few million ragheads, exploding, rape, and pillage happens...

Maybe imported Muslim workers thought it was a gasoline park.

A water park in Sweden?

Open 45 days out of the year?

Either contractor welding torch meets gas leak, or whatever fuel tanks (propane?) used to warm up the water features went splodie.

Oh someone should definitely put the video to THAT music!

Sweden imported a whole bunch of Mooslims over the past few decades.

Couldn’t have anything to do with it, though.

That’s why it is best to hire someone who can read all those warning signs and instructions which come with such equipment.

For the other 320 days it's an ice park.

I'm going to blame all of the hydrogen. I hear they had pools of H₂O there. And so they also had oxygen on the scene that was ready to fuel a fire into an inferno.
