One man stands on top of the wheel and runs along until he falls in. C/Us of feet running on the wheel intercut with L/Ss of people falling in. C/U of two men in swimsuits sitting on a sledge about to launch themselves down a wooden slope which ends in the water. The two men sledge down the slope and splash into the water. A man stands on the back of the sledge and puts his hands on the shoulders of a boy who sits in front. They go down the slope. Various shots of fun with this water chute. - Researcher Comments
