Tate Modern unveils giant slides. Weeeeeeeeee!!!

by Simon Hilton on Wed 11 Oct 2006


Visitors to Tate Modern will be able to try out five giant slides that have been unveiled at the London gallery.

The largest of the spiralling slides is more than 55m (182ft) long and descends from the fifth floor in under 20 seconds.

Artist Carsten Holler said his work, Test Site, was a “playground for the body and the brain”. He says slides can help combat mental health problems.
