Build a bubble-column launch tower with a safe free-fall splashdown pool.

A bubbling tube blasts you skyward. Then there's nothing under your feet. Build the tallest drop in the park.

What you’ll build

Build a tall glass tube with soul sand at the bottom and fill it with water to make a bubble column that shoots riders up. Add a launch deck at the top over a wide splashdown pool, time the ride up and the drop down, then light the tower and give it a dare-you sign.

Finish line: Riders rocket up your drop tower and free-fall into a splashdown pool, with both trips timed.

Bonus challenge: Build a second tower twice as tall next to the first. Predict the new ride-up time, then test it. Was the time exactly double?

You’ll need

  • Glass
  • Soul sand
  • Water buckets
  • Sea lanterns
  • A sign
  • A stopwatch

You choose

  • My tower's name
  • My height: 30, 50 or ___ blocks
  • My splashdown pool's shape

Stuck?

  • No bubbles? Every block in the tube must be a water source, so refill any flowing block from a bucket.
  • Soul sand pushes you up; magma pulls you down. Check which block is at the bottom.
  • Make the pool wide. Landing in water cancels fall damage, but only if you hit it.
