It’s a theme park experience in the comfort of your own home.

An Australian man’s mammoth backyard waterslide has raised the ire of local authorities, who are concerned that it poses a safety risk.

Luke Newton from Perth picked up the three-lane slide, which measures 12 metres (13 yards) long and rises 4.5 metres (4.92 yards) high for free from an old “indoor play centre,” according to The West Australian

He installed it adjacent to his backyard pool, where it’s received plenty of attention online — and from the locals.
