Thrilling or just dicing with death?
Paradigm Mall in Johor Bahru, Malaysia has caught the attention of those online after a customer posted a video of an indoor slide apparently ending in mid-air.
Slide that ends in mid-air
The video begins showing the start of the slide, which is inclined at an almost vertical angle down a tube.
The slide then dips before ending mid-air between the second and third floors.
A man can also be seen staring at the slide in the video, looking puzzled.

Since a llaollao kiosk can be seen below, netizens joked that the slide is an express line for those wishing to get their hands on frozen yogurt.
“You take this slide and you end up a Power Ranger,” a netizen commented.
Another commenter joked those who take the slide must immediately answer to Munkar and Nakir, referring to two angels in Islamic tradition who test the faith of the dead in their tombs.

The slide appeared to be part of an indoor adventure playground by ESCAPE that was in the process of being built.
On Oct. 14, the mall announced in a promotional video that "exciting changes are coming to Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru."
"If you’ve visited us recently, you’ve probably seen theme park equipment, playgrounds, trampolines, and slides being set up, including the exciting banana flip!"
A similar yellow slide can be spotted in the video showing the playground at Paradigm Mall Petaling Jaya.
A giant cushion can be spotted at the end of the slide.
