@@ooocarniegirlooo hmmm. the title is just "carnies" and every else in the clip looks like "tiger king" rejects :D So the guy that uploaded this just randomly to pick the hot girl as the thumbnail?.... I see what he did there :D
@@gnuibrunstthat girl is about as far away from hot as you can imagine my friend. I hope in these 5 years since you made that comment you’ve grown a little less desperate.
im love being a carny. i work for triple treat shows inc out of cinci ohio as s ride jock i move the charlie chopper and would not trade my job for nothing CARNY LIFE BABY
@@vivalabamremastered4127 They don't even make minimum wage. When I was a ride jock I made $400 a week for a hundred hour work week and had to pay $50 a week to live in a nasty ass bed bug infested bunkhouse with a room smaller then a jail cell I had to share with another carny. I'd never do it again.
These people define an age old wonderment of life. They truly wake us up from our daily lives and institute an alluring atmosphere of magic on their midway. God bless these people and all the other hard working showmen and women that are still with it for many years to come.
So I'm guessing from your comment their still on the road???? I used to work for Cumberland valley shows. But u fortunately the owners have since passed and the show has been shut down. But the grandson still books in rides with other shows. And dammit I miss c.v.s. like crazy. Anyway have a good one
Jason Anderson I remember they use to come to Devils Lake North Dakota a lot back in the 1990’s. They use to have a red octopus ride which had there name on the back of the seats.
Nice Loop o Plane u guys have! I like that Rock o Plane at the beginning as well. A Sky Diver would look good on your show too! Sadly, not many shows now move a Diver n e more due to how long it takes to set it up as well as tearing it down. I helped tear down J & J Amusements' Sky Diver in 2009. It wasn't that bad. lol But to set it up at every fair?, that might get exhausting a bit. Something u get used to though.
When I was a kid the AZ state fair "always" had a Skydiver and at least 1 Chance Skywheel (best ride ever created). To me a midway isn't a midway without them and of course a Zipper.
Forty years in the business until my fourth heart attack. Now all I can do is visit with the best friends a person could ever ask for. I have more friends in the carnivals than I have where I live. Carnies help fellow carnies! I've lost some friends over the years due to death and some I've lost contact with. Because of the right to privacy law, I'm not supposed to try and find them. I think they've taken this right to privacy a bit too far!
it was never a show, I know because one of them is my cousin. This was supposed to be a trailer for this idea "Carnies" and they made this so they could land a real with a tv show like discovery plus or nat geo or something like that

Ah I remember the mid 1970s when the carnival would come to town old gas engine trucks and a few Diesels pulling the rides and station wagons and pick up and 1 ton trucks pulling the smaller stuff I remember seeing station wagons pulling campers with entire families no uniforms then just jeans and plain clothes some of the guys wore western style long sleeve shirts and cowboy boots in 1976 the guy on the scrambler was dressed that way operating the old gas engine that drove the ride a smaller show from Decatur Georgia but they always did a good job played us 1975 to 1979.
I know these people nice people especially Courtney we hooked up a couple of times several years ago those were good old times Chad about caught us but managed to slip out no harm done s*** happens
