The Gravitron - Fulton County Fair - 3/6/08

[Regginyaga]

took me a while to realize it was moving

[skoonz]

This video is awesome! I was always too scared to go on the gravitron as my sister told me people spew and stuff! Wish I would have!

[Crabbythegamer]

im only 11 and it is my favorite ride at my fair.

[iKarleiqh]

its not scary.at all..

[Technobanana]

Looks freaking horrific D:

[xLieen95]

Do you become ill?

[tma112]

i did this 30 times at the lynden fair

[ThyBountyHunter]

One Trick I have done, Hold onto the bar place feet that the bottom of the wall. When the speed gets going, walk up the wall still holding onto the bar, when it gets fast enough, let go of the bar and adjust your body with the forces, you'll be standing on the wall as everyone seems to be laying there.

[TheExoticAnimal]

@ThyBountyHunter ive done that and when it began to stop i fell... hard but it was fun! lol

[SpikeLanta]

you know what's crazy, for years I've been scared to ride the thing. I am 31 years old, still never ridden it, but now that I've seen a lot of videos on it, it looks like a joke. It doesn't even look scary, much less exciting.

[rudorot65]

@omgitsbrooke1 on the inside you are forced against the wall by a mix of G's and centrifugal force. It is running at a rate of around 33 rpm on a 3 kW motor because of the force it shoves you up on a sliding mechanism and back down when it slows down a bit. Does this for about 1-1.5 maybe 2 minutes

[rudorot65]

Rode a version at local fair guy in middle got out and grabbed a rafter and started walking around the handrail

[KittJaceTessAlexShow]

dude i go to the fulton county fair. What state is yours in???

[TheKingsTuts]

one is at my carnival so i rode upside down and stood up will make vid soon

[omgitsbrooke1]

Can someone explain to me what the HELL is happening

[AgoraphobicEric]

@omgitsbrooke1 you stand on the matt and the ride starts spinning, then the matt goes up and itts holding you up and you dont fall down.. by the way. ... no seat belts.

[tbirdpimp07]

this one should be called gravitron meets half the hood shut up people haha

[iTBanKTruong]

because it takes no affect in the middle than the outside

[TheUploader1]

Not a single fuck was given that day

[CoolHeal20]

i been on this ride yer on roller coaster tycoon 3 lol, awesome i dident know its real lol i wanna go now lol

[ippyisgod]

i didnt even realise it had started moving

[cannedshoes]

First time I rode this, I was confused on what the point was. Then I saw people sitting on the walls....

[Skitzopathic1024]

Haha i rode that shit on my first date haha. it was at that fair. fun shit.

[candy363]

when i go on that ride i find it hard to breathe :|

[Jotero96]

lol ur not even moving

[liltec2]

lol i love this thing

[TheReveiw12]

Just came home from a fair and I rode like a million times i LOVE THIS RIDE

[Aelitafan1000]

i bet the operator gets dizzy after 20 times xd

[mattdude711]

just went on one yesterday some guy stood sideways on the wall.

[nihilisticpunk]

@mattdude711 haha i went on it 2 days agoe and someone was jumping on the wall haaha then there was this dude hanging off the bars, and then he was standing on the wall lol.

[LiyahStars]

Lmao , it looks like its not even moving !

[MrA7X10]

@LiyahStars it is its just you get sucked into your seat and you can bearly move. It is going super fast. When I rode it it was going so fast it felt like it was going to fly off like a top!!!!

[Aelitafan1000]

@LiyahStars when your inside of the ride you cant tell your spinning because, there arent any gaps you can see out of

[performance500]

I went on this last year and I puked it came straight back at me and hit me in my face

[joelperronful]

@performance500 thats awful

[22rascal44]

@performance500 omg i feel sorry foor you because you puked on gravitron. i have been on it but did you eat recently before going on it?

[101labs]

i went on this at my fair i loved it end at first i was like why are ppl upside down and how?

HAHA it is the best and i never get sick!!

[MrJohnnylama]

How does it work...does it spin or something

[murkmumba]

@MrJohnnylama what happens is you sit in this thing and spins super fast and centrificle force makes you stick to the walls

[Bebopopotamus]

@murkmumba Centrifugal force.

[musicalman1995]

@MrJohnnylama it spins really fast... its similar to the rotor except it does't feel like you are spinning becoz everything is moving with you... so:

rotor is thrilling coz you are spinning fast and are stuck on the wall.

Gravitron you feel like you aren't moving at all but randomly you are stuck to the wall.

[magicalluv4kitties]

It's funny, because if you didn't know it was spinning, this would just look like a room full of psychopaths :P

[ThePlaya2793]

I went on it yesterday and i had a huge hedache and i climed up the wall

[joelperronful]

2 much yelling omg

[4dafunni3s]

it l00ks like a room of screaming people 2 me

[runescapewizard3]

[coastermadab]

[iEMOjayjayXcore]

[guitarsk8r777]

when i went on it and the seat dropped i screamed like a little bish.xD

[bandccrazies]

[jossiekehler13]

haha i was on that thing but it was called the starship 2000, anyways, i was upside down and the guy was sitting there bitching at me, he stopped the ride and i fell on my head, but the only good part about it was he went extra long. it was fun!

[jovabo112]

i remember yesterday i was crawling on the wall like spider man lol

[m1garandjesse]

id like to see all of them climbing near the top of the seats and then the ride stopping and hearing one big thump when they all hit the ground lol

[panda1329]

that'd be hilarious

[b0b9000]

hey i love that ride from the portland ct fair, but they took it away for a gay fun house

[shikagangsta]

u can get a workout by trying to do pushups off the wall lol...its works XD

[drpeppercup]

i fucking fell with the floor and now im fucking in bed dam it i didnt no u had to fucking jump the sucks fucking ass

[JustinSmale]

what are you talking about you dont have to jump it just means when the seats go up you dont go all the way to the top LOL and the floor doesnt fall

[rocklegend2]

i love this ride

[eaefianww13]

i love this ride they have one at clermont county in ohio

[senatepage2001]

does the operator of ride spin to

[JustinSmale]

sometimes depends on how old the ride is

[JohanDies]

HA!

i loved this ride

but they took it down here in FL

cuz it spun out of control and killed to 2 ppl

[iowaAces]

yikes lol thanks now im not goin on this ride anymore

[JDKNSATL]

AWESOME! I MISSED IT THIS YEAR. I never could figure out how the operator in the middle is NOT spinning?... heh.

[ATLCoasterMan]

@JDKNSATL The operator is spinning!!! They just dont feel the effects like the people on the wall. Sitting in the middle you dont have the G forces like you do on the wall. So they can sit in there for a while. But if you ever notice at most fairs the operator does come to the door or outside after just about every run lol....

[cutelovebee]

@JDKNSATL The middle isn't connected to the rest of the ride..

[colombiatm]

@cutelovebee lol if it wasn't connected then the guy in the middle would see everything spin

[colombiatm]

@JDKNSATL he is spinning but since he's in the middle, gravity does't really have any effect on him.

[cannedshoes]

@JDKNSATL He is in the middle. If you are on the side, you get pulled that way.

[Meatwad8888]

@JDKNSATL Last one I rode, the guy was sitting in a swivel chair that was bolted to the ground. I figured the bottom was just spinning under him x]

[Bebopopotamus]

@JDKNSATL It is spinning. Everything is spinning. It's spinning the same speed as you. You perceive it to be sitting still.

[Slayback2102]

@JDKNSATL so is he spinning or isnt he?! cause it looks like he is spinning with you

[JDKNSATL]

agreed.. it does look like he's spinning with you, but dont you think he'd be one dizzy mofo after one ride! lol . hahah i still havn't figured it out

[Slayback2102]

@JDKNSATL jeah thats my thought
