The retro water slide is the first of its kind in the world.

Standing at 7.4m tall (almost 25ft), it's almost the height of two double decker busses stacked on top of each other.

Like the traditional fairground attraction, there's a bright red flume that wraps around the central tower.

But instead of sitting on a mat to come down, there will be a constant flow of water to propel you from start to finish.

There's also a wave machine for those looking to test out their surfing skills.

And for younger children, there's a quieter spot where they can test out the water as well.

Butlin's new pool will be a huge new attraction for the holiday resort.

It can accommodate 950 guests at the same time and is a massive 6,3000sqm.
