It’s London’s tallest building and now you can get the chance to whizz down it on a virtual reality slide.
Adrenaline junkies, listen up. The Shard, which just so happens to be London’s tallest building, (honestly you can’t miss its sharp glass point in the capital’s skyline) is now allowing visitors to hurl themselves around their impressive 800 foot tall building.
To “fool the senses”, guests will be seated on a moving sloped platform to mimic the motion of the slide. The experience will last two minutes and is set to rival Stratford’s ArcelorMittal Orbit slide.
The experiences have been created by east London firms Inition and Happy Finish who have described how “with the Slide we directly evoke fear, joy and exhilaration equally”. Sounds like a pretty tame experience then?
The experiences are for over-12s only and will be included in the £26 View From The Shard tickets until August 4, after which a separate fee will apply.
