Given enough time and ingenuity, people can come up with their own homemade version of just about anything, including a water slide.

This Australian water marvel is called 'Slip and Bleed.' While the guy in the video successfully navigates the ride, others weren't as lucky, ensuring this ride lives up to it's name.

What appears to be an easy and fun way to cool off didn't quite have one woman convinced she could go from top to bottom without shedding some blood.

To help the slide be more slippery - and make this good clean fun - everyone gets a few squirts of liquid soap under and around them.

If they get all the way to the end, they're rewarded with a nice 'bubble bath.'

For most though, it's the risk of blood and bruises that makes taking a slide worth every scar.
