Originating in 1936 by The Eyerly Aircraft Company (Portland, USA).the Octopus has become a staple fairground attraction. .
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:(

Had one of these at the local amusement park, but it was shaped/painted to resemble an octopus - thick, black, wavy “tentacles” with purple suckers with black tubs on the ends.

One of my faves. Last time I rode this, they played BBD’s “Do Me Baby” for the ride music, rofl. I need to get myself some ride time! Unfortunately I live in an area where carnivals only have rides for little kids, guess they figure the big kids and adults are only interested in crafts, beer tents and ’60s tribute bands. Boring!
