50 years ago at my elementary school playground in the US I remember a scorching reflective metal slide that would slide you right into pool of mud.
I haven't seen one of these slides in America in at least 30 years. Any new playground I have seen is made of plastic and/or wood but I guess that doesn't get the clicks.

Those are the worse. Its literally a sheet of metal, under the sun without any shade. Those were either 90C in the summer or -30C in the winter. No inbetween
