The tube water slide is 1,111 meters in length, and is certified by the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest tube water slide in the world.

Official opening of ESCAPE Gravityplay

ESCAPE Gravityplay was officially opened by the Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng and Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow on 9 November, 2019. My wife and I were privileged to an invitation to the opening, after which, we had a fun time enjoying the longest tube water slide in the world. Although it is said to take 4 minutes, that 4 minutes seem to pass so quickly that we rode the slides twice!

To reach the top of ESCAPE Gravityplay, we had to take a chairlift.
