Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
Woops, fixed it.
I remember it being crazy tall but then I was like 7 years old so, who knows.
Thanks for checking!
Hey don’t get me wrong, even if it’s only 10 metres tall, that is huge! One of the local playgrounds here has a tower up to a slide (not unlike the one in the article, though less fancy), and that’s probably only 5 meters tall, but it still looks huge. If I was up at the top of the 12m tall one in the article, it would probably give me vertigo!
I know safety standards were lax back then, but 6 stories would be like 20 meters wouldn’t it? Even back then they would think twice for a kids playground at that height.
Playgrounds don’t need to have head space for adults, and don’t need to have space between floors for wires, pipes, etc. So I’d think a maximum of 2m high for a floor, and probably less.
True. Still 12 or more meters is still pretty high for kids!
Agreed! That’s massive!
