This is a complete 3 1/2 minute view of a ride on a county fair Tilt-A-Whirl ride, as seen from a camera on my stomach, complete with pointless chatter and conversation in the background!
@militaryfan90 - I operate a tiltawhirl at an amusement park, and contrary to popular belief, it is mostly the operator that controls the spinning. When people leans, it sometimes actually messes up the setup we are trying to get the cars into to make them spin.
The tilt and scrambler are my favorite but the kick ass is the HYMILAYA . Old school carnivals are slowly dying out😢. I miss working for the carnival and the sideshows. I wish they would bring cumberland valley shows BACK. That litterly broke my heart when they went out of business 😢😢😢
@militaryfan90 - It is definitely fun operating one. I operate the largest coaster in the park i work in as well and Tilt-a-whirl is definitely still awesome compared to it. the reason it is so much fun to operate is because you have full control over the spinning and it is almost like a "game" while youre operating it.
@militaryfan90 - pretty much anything goes to get the cars to spin. Keeping it high gear (there are 2) the entire time is not advised, it you keep it on the same speed for too long, none of the cars will spin.
to make it spin faster u leen to the side witch way u about to spinn it works it wont make a mega diffens but it will work and it will really show when ur thing is full
You know how the bar doesn't lock, it just sits on your lap? Yeah...well, the first time me and my friends went on it we thought we were going to die...lol
Haa..we didn't WANT to make it go fast! I had just eaten way too many greasy, oily mini-donuts and Cokes and any more intense spinning would have made this a MUCH more interesting video! But I can't go to the fair without going on this ride!
