This should be open for the public between launches.

"Why are you wearing a spacesuit?"
"To prevent burns when using the slide"

[jasonw]

Forget going to space. That slide is epic.

[judsonspruce]

The ladder graphic on the tube is there for visual orientation to maintain focus.

[ChezzusXrift]

The gopro made it seem like it was three times as long

[kevikiru]

Can you imagine the static electricity at the end?! He better not touch a handle!

[yerretson]

This is what it feels like when you're 8 and go down the stairs at home on your mattress.

[CaptainNero]

Fun testing it, let's hope they never have to use them!

[bamtherandomness]

Imma need a bunch of these to fully enjoy the barn again in my old age.❤

[Orc-icide]

They say he volunteers to go down scratchy slides at NASA because no one else will. All we know IS HE'S CALLED THE STIG

[partiespronto]

Can you imagine being about halfway down when the explosion occurs and it sends you flying wrapped cocoon style into the parking lot next door for one hell of a splashdown

[kevinedwards]

25 SECONDS !!!!
You’re already toast!!!😂😂😂

[rachelannsmart]

I’m glad they finally coming up with solutions to save astronauts from becoming crispy critters!

[mikefriend]

Don’t think that’s taking them far enough from the flame exhaust or a potential rocket explosion.

[terrydodd]

Skyscrapers should have these installed

[MrGusinfla]

I cant stop watching the way it flys down the wire with the noise the slam at the end opening awesome

[ChancemeetingUhere]

It’s not the fall but the sudden stop that’ll hurt you. 🤔

[robhaythorne]

That would be a cool ride at Six Flags. It could also be used to rescue people from roller coasters that get stuck.

[TheNemocharlie]

Well, that's super-duper, but how useful it will be in a rocket blowing up/falling down situation remains to be seen.

[michaelhazzard]

Let's hope that if there's an emergency the Crew has more than fifteen seconds
