a 9 foot tall lego slide would be approximately 286 bricks high, if Hammie used roof bricks it would be sort of smooth but the slide would be at a 45° angle. the base would be about 4,514 bricks in length using 1 × 2 × 4 bricks and to make a 2 foot wide slide he’ d need about 20 rows of bricks. the base of a slide would have to be somewhere around 90,280 bricks the whole slide would be about 13 million bricks if a solid structure,( about 15 minutes of legos daily production) less if using duplo for the bulk of the slide. a slide that size would cost around 1.3 million dollars. my figures are estimates done at four in the morning so take that as you will.
I had several sets that I’ve enjoyed doing and also my grandkids, especially my granddaughter. I recently passed them on to my sister-in-law for her grandkids which are a little younger than ours. I still love doing them myself. I can definitely relate to having enough to do this.
1) You can get better angle control using the thin pieces instead of only the thick. You can also use the slanted roof pieces.
2) IGNORE the “professional” Lego builders! Stagger the layers EVERYWHERE. This gets you strength instead of quick building. (This is where the Myth Busters went wrong with Lego.)

No different than falling down a steep set of stairs.

Now, you need to make a Lego toboggan to go down the Lego slide.

Assuming that took every Lego in the house, could it be you can now walk through the living room without stepping on one?

It will be a miracle if Hammie doesn’t have brain (assuming he has one to begin with) by he’s twenty.

At least the Legos aren’t scattered loose through the house for someone barefoot to step on.

As a bored child I learned that rigidity is key when sliding down a set of stairs. I was “planking” on my back before it was even a thing

Hammie, two pieces of advice:
1) You can get better angle control using the thin pieces instead of only the thick. You can also use the slanted roof pieces.
2) IGNORE the “professional” Lego builders! Stagger the layers EVERYWHERE. This gets you strength instead of quick building. (This is where the Myth Busters went wrong with Lego.)

Should have gone for the Lego blocks for roofs, they would have given him a smoother ride.
