The most crowded pool I have ever seen
Categories: Places To Go
My daughter is obsessed with being in the water. She asks if we can go swimming every time we're together, and whenever we're actually at the pool, she sings, shouts and laughs the entire time she's in the water -- usually something like "I'M SWIMMING! I'M SWIMMING!"
Now that temperatures in Texas are regularly in the triple digits, the pools are packed. Especially at the more popular locations around the city, it seems like you can't go more than 2 or 3 feet without bumping into someone.
That, however, is nothing compared to this wave pool in Tokyo. Apparently it'd been broken all day, so as soon as the pool re-opened, it was immediately filled with so many people that you can't see any water when looking at it from above.
Wow. Just. Wow.

Speaking as someone who used to be a lifeguard my jaw dropped when I watched this video for the first time. Allowing a wave pool get that crowded is grounds for criminal negligence as far as I'm concerned.

Also, does anyone know where I can go on the site to fix my profile? My name is linked to http://jasonrallen.gmail.com/ for some reason.

Not only is that type of overcrowding not fun, but it is also FAR from being safe!
heck I hate going to the water parks because ""floating"" down the "peaceful river" in an tube that is barely moving due to the amount of people in other tubes, is in no way fun, peaceful or safe.
