A ride on the World’s Tallest Indoor Tube Slide

Slides are like toothpaste -- they’re cool and slippery, and can sting when you rub enough of them on your skin. Chute through giant fun-oozing tubes with today’s Groupon: for RM6.50, you get one ride on the LeX Tube Slide (RM12 value), plus half off on one session in the Firefly Flight Simulator which costs RM30 per ticket.

Towering five storeys high, and fifty meters long, the monster wormhole – certified by The Malaysia Book of Records as the world’s tallest indoor spiral tube slide -- zealously swallows one slider at a time and shoots both adult children and madcap five-year-olds through a ten-second tube maze. Though there is no particular attire requirement for this activity, medieval armours may reduce sliding velocity. If spiralling down an enormous straw isn’t enough to fulfil one’s adrenaline rush for the day, customers can pursue a double thrill with a 15-minute ride on the LeX Firely Flight Simulator. Enthusiastic sky explorers can choose to pilot either the ATR 72-500 metal bird or the brand new Boeing 737-800, complete with a functional control panel. While an attractive flight attendant will not be serving peanuts on this flight, omnipresent qualified flight masters are at hand to escort novice aircraft drivers through a smooth take-off and landing. LeX Centre also houses a broad spectrum of computer and digital supplies to sate gizmo geckos, and famished civilians who need a bite can do so at the LeX café while their electronic devices receive an upgrade in bytes.

Sliders need to be a minimum of 110 centimetres tall and weigh a maximum of 200 kilogrammes. While LeX offers discounts for tube slide rides on its Facebook page, this Groupon still offers the best value.
