Before we get into any details we would like to remind all readers that these simple playground activities of safety have been designed and tested by professionals although it may be a simple task. We know that when the normal body goes down a slide that he/she normally will be electrified by an estimated 12watt electrical bolt which can cause minor sudden pain. Our job here at PlayGround Fun™ is to figure out ways to make it fun and not have to deal with such minor annoyances.

How To Rid The Shock
One simple way that very few people do to rid the pain of shock is simply wear a rubber suit before going down a slide. Of course very rarely will people do such a thing so we have discovered another way. Normally when a person goes to the park or activity center he/she will go in groups of 2-7 people at a time. What you can do is just have one person lay on there back and have the other lay atop of them and slide down together.

How It Works
When the average person goes down a slide they only take up a fraction of the slide. When they go down in groups they can take 1/3 to half the slide. As the partners go down the static bolts 'zap' the target with less distance between. In other words when you make a faster mile per hour speed? running only 2 feet, or running 10 feet? The answer would be 10 feet because you have more room to speed up just like the bolts but at a much shorter rate. If the bolt only has a few inches it will go much, much  slower and cause the shock to be at 1 or 2watt of electricity.
