Originating in the 1950’s, the Octopus has become a staple fairground attraction. The Eyerly Aircraft Company (Portland, USA) is believed to have been one of the first manufacturers of this timeless design.
The ride consists of a set of undulating arms which bear cars on the end. As the arms raise and lower from the eccentric hub, the cars are exposed to varying clockwise and counter-clockwise spins, resulting in an enjoyable intermediate thrill ride.
Well let’s just say, I can handle this ride,but my brother almost puked:(
