The spinning disc ride...
You know the one, spins so fast that you are pinned by the g-force against the side as it slowly works it way from horizontal to a near vertical position.

If you are lucky enough to know the operator who doesn't care about health & safety (or quick enough to move after the ride starts) then give it a try when doing a handstand.

It truly is an awesome experience that can only be appreciated by those who have tried it.

Done it
on the gravatron at Alton Towers

You had to pick the right moment to turn yourself upside down before the heavy G's started!

If you were lucky some girls would do it and you get a free perv at the same time!

yeah,
He was turing as well - but slower in the middle - wh must have got some right eye fulls - what a quality job.

I was devastated a few years back when I took the missus and it was gone.

it went yeeeeaaarrs ago. Probably 96-97?
Infact it probably went before then. That place is still brilliant.

makes me feel old
I took my dad there in about 94 ish and made him go on the Thunder Looper first - it fucked him up when it went round backwards so he couldn't go on anything else.

At the end of the day he said he could manage one more last ride so I took him on the Gravitron - I don't think he's been on a ride since.

Quality!

THE THUNDER LOOPA!! hahaha, man you are taking me back
I havent heard that name in years. I remember the enterprise too - but thats still thetre by the black hole - though that is now closed down.

Enterprise!
forgot about that one - my sister shit her pants on that.

It was pretty brutal though when it got vertical.

do you remember the old missisipi steam ship thingy? It was knackered but the 'tumble dryer' bit was a laugh if you pushed your mates over and they couldn't get up without help - difficult if you fucked off it to watch and laugh at them.

you're not meant to just do a handstand.
The best way to ride The Cage, as I call it, is to get upside down, then sit up. That way you can't see the ride at all, just a spinning horizon.
