Hmm. The first one was better. A lot of things aren't right.

For example: A waltzer as most popular ride ? XD In the biggest part of europe they haven't even got a waltzer XD

[therideguide]

Mmm, the reason I used the Waltzer as an example is more of a generalisation of the most popular. Certainly in the UK, visit any funfair and you'll find a Waltzer ride. America also have alot of these rides which they call 'Tilt-A-Whirl'. I think another reason I used the Waltzer is based on my opinion, in that whenever I think of a funfair, I immediately go back to my childhood when it was all Waltzers, Speedways and Octopus's LOL

Great stuff - long may they continue

[therideguide]

Thanks. They certainly will continue, hopefully with a turnout of one episode per fortnight.

What were the guys doing standing up @ 1:34??

[Monstoday]

Perhaps dark rides too :-)

[soundmachine6]

Yeah sorry. I've forgotten that you are all from great britain. Because if you say waltzer in holland almost noone understands you XD

But still I think you shouldn't use the term popular. I think you shouldn't use examples at all. because I also know a lot of themeparks without an enterprise.

But ofcourse the vids are yours (and I love m so keep on maing them ;) )

Good job, I liked this! Your voice suited the mood of the video too!

[therideguide]

Lol, glad you like them Jewls. Even though the content is in it's simplest form, we still try and add a sense of fun to them. In fact the intial idea for the videos was a more cartoony look to them, but time constraints force us to keep the effects quite basic.

Good guess, it should be released within the next 2 weeks.
