Luke Newton from Perth picked up the three-lane slide, which measures 12 metres (13 yards) long and rises 4.5 metres (4.92 yards) high for free from an old "indoor play centre," according to The West Australian (https://thewest.com.au/news/wa/giant-backyard-slide-falls-foul-of-joondalup-safety-rules-ng-b88667558z).*
He installed it adjacent to his backyard pool, where it's received plenty of attention online (https://www.facebook.com/TheBellTowerTimes/posts/861265620746674) — and from the locals.*
A group of Perth mates inherited an old fairground slide and turned their pool into the hottest (dangerous) attraction in town #geniusorinsane (https://twitter.com/hashtag/geniusorinsane?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) pic.twitter.com/7UA2PXXor0 (https://t.co/7UA2PXXor0)
