A video has been shared online of the terrifying moment a man almost fell off the side of a steep waterslide.
Wael Khanafer was filming his twin brother Karim as they visited a waterpark while on holiday.
The 21-year-olds were in the park in the South of France last Friday, 19 July, when Karim decided to go on the towering slide.

However, what happened next, shocked them forever.
In the clip, shared to TikTok, Karim can be seen at the top of the side with a raft, before starting his descent.
But for a moment, on his way down, he flies into the air.
In doing so he hits the side of the slide, but luckily bounces back in and slides to the bottom where he laughs it off, but with a shocked face.
“I found it funny at the time,” Wael, a sportsperson from Lebanon, told What’s The Jam.
