Royal Caribbean has revealed the highly-anticipated first look of The Ultimate Abyss, the tallest slide on the high seas, which will intimidate the bravest of guests and challenge them to prove their courage from onboard Harmony of the Seas, the world’s largest cruise ship which will debut in May 2016. The Ultimate Abyss features two separate cylinders towering more than 150 feet above sea level, overlooking the AquaTheater at the aft of the ship, equipped with spontaneous audio effects. This humongous slide will release adrenalin-seeking travellers into a chilling 100 foot drop that twists and turns in a serpentine-like movement as they slide nine miles an hour, approximately, from the Pool and Sports Zone on Deck 16 to the Boardwalk on Deck 6 below. Harmony of the Seas will span 16 guest decks, encompass 227,000 gross registered tons, carry 5,497 guests at double occupancy, and feature 2,747 staterooms.
