My college dorm had a 6 story staircase with a railing you could slide down like that. A major House event was for the house champion. We'd do 2 timed runs each to start, and the top guys would advance to the next round, until two guys would race for the championship. I got pretty good at it but never even made it to the finals. No one ever fell while I was there, which is surprising since lots of drugs and alcohol were always involved. You can tell those girls had NO idea what they were doing falling off on the straight; it was going around the turns that won or lost the race, and that's where you were most likely to fall.
