Quite traumatic, as a 10 year old, seeing that and the injuries. It did actually seem the injuries were mostly superficial mind, just quite gruesome looking and a lot of blood
I think that was a "thing" years ago as people did that a local water slide place near us. It actually shut down in the end as it kept happening and the insurance.premiums sky rocketed.

I remember talking about it before it happened with friends, and some being convinced it was just an urban myth that never actually happened. So clearly it was a thing even then if we had already heard about it..then it happened, and a few friends were quite redfaced as they had basically said anyone thinking anyone would do that was an utter twat, and so on

I think it got blown up a bit round our way, people were saying it was dirty needles....but it happened with razor blades, more than once too.
