Is it really *that* steep?!

Nearly screamed when I saw this Wildebeest construction photo.

Lori, our water park director, snapped it on her iPhone and dinged it over to me.

Gah!

But wait. Look closer.

 That's right, look at the background.

The horizon is, uh ... skewed.

Wildebeest, the World's Longest Water Coaster!

Whew.

Here's another view.

Hanging lots of fiberglass to build Wildebeest.

We saved a few key pieces so that Riley from National Geographic Channel's World's Toughest Fixes can jump in and help next week.

Expect lots of tweeting from the field starting Tuesday. Seven days of shooting should produce lots of great stories (don't worry, we won't give away the ending -- you'll have to watch it for yourself in June.)
