Belle Isle Slide reopens Friday after viral videos showed people flying

The giant Belle Isle Slide is reopening to the public on Friday after it was shut down last week when riders went flying, literally catching air. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources said they have addressed the problem, and have even launched a new safety video to show folks how to properly ride the slide. According to the DNR, they have scrubbed the surface and plan on spraying water on the slide in between rides to control the speed.
