Fun fact, this is based on what happened with me. Me and my cousin went to holiday world and we wrote the mammoth. Well I'm the lightest. I almost flew out if it weren't for my cousin holding me down. Bad things could've happened.
The sun beamed down mercilessly on the blacktop, the kind of afternoon that left no one questioning why they'd picked a waterpark for the day. The splash of fountains and laughter of kids filled the air, mingling with the smell of chlorine and sunscreen. Taylor adjusted her oversized sunglasses and took a sip of water, her golden hair tied in a braid down her back. She wore a blue one-piece and a smile, her hand linked tightly in Travis'.

They weren't parents today.Just four adults pretending for a few hours that their lives were uncomplicated. Jason and Kylie walked just ahead, towels slung over their shoulders, scouting the slides like kids again.
"Okay, we've done the lazy river, the wave pool, and the double drop," Jason grinned, pointing to a towering yellow and blue monstrosity. "Time to conquer the beast."
Taylor's eyes followed his gesture and widened slightly. "That thing looks like it defies the laws of physics."
"It kind of does," Kylie chimed in with a mischievous grin. "You sit in a square raft like a donut with corners and ride it like a pinball through a half-pipe slide. No front or back."

Travis squeezed Taylor's hand. "You in, babe?"
Taylor squinted at the slope and the raft. "Sure," she said finally. "I'm just saying this is one of those times I wish I weighed more."
"Don't we all," Kylie muttered with a wink.
They made their way up the dozens of winding stairs to the top, the heat making the climb feel like a marathon. Once they reached the platform, an attendant gestured to the large yellow square raft the same shape as the one from the promotional poster. It was built for four, handles in each corner, deep in the center.
Jason and Travis took the two heavier corners, with Kylie and Taylor on opposite sides.
The attendant said cheerfully. "Just hold on tight, and keep your limbs in!"
