The Tagada is a simple ride with a complex history. The earliest roots of the ride can be traced to turn of the century attractions that were essentially just spinning wheels designed to throw riders off them with centrifugal force. This would evolve over time into the Tagada we know today. The modern Tagada is a very dangerous ride, it's so dangerous that it's banned in several countries including the US and Australia.

Old fans of this channel know the Tagada is a "circle based ride that literally goes around in a circle" lol

Flashing lights warning between 1:45-4:02. In case that's a problem for anyone. It gets pretty intense in some spots

yea as someone with autism that really hurts my eyes and i imagine most people with epilepsy would get a seizure looking at that

That's far from the worst epilepsy you can find at fairs

I'm from Brazil, and I was so shocked when I discovered that this type of ride is banned in a lot of countries. In Brazil it is a fairly common ride, usually called SAMBA

I love these. I remember that once on my local amusement park me, my sister and some of her friends were repeating and repeating the tagada before the park closed. On the last ride, the operetor made it waaay longer than the other ones. The next day, i woke up with my arms hurting and bruises (im not sure about the bruises, but at least my arms hurt). 10/10 would do it again.

@GermiesCoasterYard 2 месяца назад

Literally something out of my nightmares. A ride where there is no seatbelt and you're at the mercy of your grip strength 😂

@ScreamingAllTheTime 2 месяца назад

Idk why, but there’s some flat rides with more safety features that I wouldn’t ride, but I see this one and go “I could do this I’m built different” for some reason.

@Honeyr0ck 2 месяца назад

I live in south america, where these things are some of the most COMMON and basic fair rides, and yeah, i like them in a weird way, they are uncomfortable as hell but you have so much fun and laughs that you forget about everything, one of my wishes before i die is to operate a tagada :)

@kso808 2 месяца назад

I’ve never really ever considered this to be a fun ride.

@dandygardner9404 2 месяца назад

Same. When I was a kid, i think my my peers mistook tagada as a gateway to insane, aggressive, dangerous flirting... No thanks.

@4everpee 2 месяца назад

I dont know why they dont make the bars much more higher and styrofoam matress center to reduce bruises and bone breakage. Seat seperator too could be added to improve safety. There is tons of ways to improve tagada safety if engineers want to takle it.

@markvolpe2305 2 месяца назад

Carowinds had a Tagada in the parks early years, which lasted 1 or 2 seasons. From what I read about the ride, it was ran very tame.

@Funfair2304 2 месяца назад

I did not ride an actual Tagada yet, but I have ridden a ride that's commonly known as a Hopser in Germany. Serving as some sort of Tagada replacement (as they aren't found in Germany at all), these rides can only bounce up on the back side, and not side to side. These are tamer than an actual Tagada but they can spin very fast and pull some forces. I've also noticed these often reach higher points than an actual Tagada can.

@Colaholiker 2 месяца назад

Not sure if what's said in the video about the bouncing of the Tagada being hydraulic is correct, but the "Hopser" is pneumatically bounced. I totally have to disagree with what's said about the rides being oh so dangerous. First of all, they get TÜV approval, which means a lot. And then, I spend my entire childhood at German fairs, and it was way more likely to get beat up by some drunk person who felt like you were looking at them the wrong way than get injured riding a Hopser. But then again, a lot of folks in the US would see a lot of things that are common at fairs in Europe (like just waiting on the ride's perimeter walkway to get on a Break Dancer or Musik Express ride) as terribly dangerous, while we just say "so what?"...

@ross123540 2 месяца назад

Loved riding on this as a child when the fun fair used to come to town! So much fun!❤

@HussFan Месяц назад

In Germany we have a very weird variation of the Tagada called "Double Jump". There is only one existing of these models as far as I know. It's two Tagada platerns connected on the opposite sides of one arm which also rotates. Very weird ride.

@robwarner9371 2 месяца назад

It all depends on how the ride is operated. I’ve had loads of fun rides on the Tagada they used to have at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. You could ride with arms in the air and feet raised off the floor and still not end up falling off the seat. Your coccyx would take a bit of a bashing, but the bouncing was only done when the ride was spinning, so the centripetal force helped keep you seated. The injuries occur when riders are encouraged to stand up, or when the operator bounces the ride without spinning it.

@windyleecarr 2 месяца назад

My one and only Tagada ride was on that very machine around 1987. Absolutely hated it. Plastic seats = bruised coccyx and sore back for days. Swore I'd never go on one again.

@TheSymchan 2 месяца назад

Oh my god, I remember riding this around 15 years ago in Germany. I loved that thing, but I can absolutely see how dangerous it really is. Haven't seen one since that time. I feel like I have vague memories of riding a variation with two spinning discs, but it might be my memory being faulty

@fiomidemeteor9776 2 месяца назад

Had a chance to ride a Tagada a few weeks back - I only skipped it because I visited the fair at a really, really quiet time of day and the operator said he'd start running it in a few hours time. I recon they would be fun with a large group of freinds but not really worth it on your own.

@bleeblah234 2 месяца назад

Bucket list ride

@wwjdpljj Месяц назад

Honestly I think one of the worst parts of this type of ride is if the guy next to you throws up while spinning, that’s all over you now 😫😩

@Zackattackplayspokemon 2 месяца назад

I agree with a few other comments here, please try and choose clips unlike the "Fairgroundking1" clip or try and edit out the flashing because that is *very* distracting and causing an epilepsy risk for no real reason

@whatTFisThis Месяц назад

yea as someone with autism this is really hurting my eyes and definitely would cause someone with epilepsy to have a seizure

Omgg and i was planning on going on one back in mexico i will take that into consideration

@twiglet645 2 месяца назад

I Absolutely Love theese, Even in the UK where they are often run slower and with less bouncing, they are still some of my fav rides due to the sheer insanity and roulette of injuries! Great Video!

@David9PM 2 месяца назад

If that was in America. The insurance policy would be crazy making it not worth it. Also the potential lawsuits is insane.

@darnell2000 2 месяца назад

You could workshop a sort of seat where the rider is restrained into the seat, but the seat itself can bounce around on elastics/springs/bumpers to give some of the same feeling. Furthermore the operator's choices could be limited to scripted and tested sequences of motions.

@Lumoskor 2 месяца назад

im pretty adventurous with trying new rides, but this ride is an actual nightmare both in theory and practice, especially safety-wise

@AlphaFlight 2 месяца назад

Rcs had one in the United States. Not having any injuries. Parents however started to complain and bullied the ride off the show

@GlutzahnLP 22 дня назад

Honestly it was kinda always pretty fun to stand in the middle of the ride and not falling over, when you had shoes that were slippery enough and you had good enough balance you could "slide around in a cool way". Probably wouldnt ride one of these today XD The worst one I saw had a big sphere in the middle of the disc, when I saw that one I thought "if someone loses grip it gets ugly"

@justphantom7013 2 месяца назад

God how I hate Tagada's. Whenever I see one show up on our German fairs or already weeks before on the floorplans, the amount of anger I feel cannot be put in words for such a wasted opportunity for an actual good fair ride. Even if these things operate for 3€ only compared to the Break Daces 4,50€ or sometimes even 5€, nah I'd take those. No money in the world can make me ride those things again.

My local fair at hull uk is one of the biggest in Europe and has multiple of these they really don't go easy on you broken noses and missing teeth are not uncommon it's like a dream for flat ride fans if you are in the UK I would recommend it and it runs from the 4th of October to the 12th discounting the Sunday

@keynobi9258 2 месяца назад

I was not allowed to ride on those when I was little, so I've only been in them at most 3 times. The last one was like a year ago. It was me, my two friends, a group of 4 or 5 people around our age (early 20s), and 2 kids around 10 years old. The kids were in the center, but the rest of us started on the sides, so we could not get up a single time. We all felt so old XD

@JVCOSTA Месяц назад

The person who manufactured Tagada on a high production scale was FarFabbri during the 80s and 90s, it is the real Tagada, Technical Park does not produce Tagadá, the one on the website is made at Emiliana Luna Park, which in the 90s launched Tagadisco, a version more compact and modern than Tagada, which was a success in Latin America.

@BoyRoy18 2 месяца назад

This is the most fun ride i ever done. I was the first to stand up in the middel, i puled my friend with me and everyone els also come. We were bounces around alot!!! my friend and i were the last standing and the opperator tryed to get us to fall. eventualy we did fall, fly down to random people that were sitting again and evey one was laughing. it was so mutch fun!! to jump in a moving spinning and bouncing ride is insane! But that i love about it. Its also where nobody care if you are a stanger. You always and up on someone els you dont know. With some bruches we left the ride but we went again stayed after it. Yes i had pain the next morning and i looked like a smurf, but it was oldschool fun!!! and that awesome

@whatTFisThis Месяц назад

i rode something like this in the us, it was a big cylinder that spun and tiped from one side to the other and rose up and down my friend made me ride it, it had seatbelts but the ride operator did not make us put them on, the entire ride was grimey, it spun really fast all the while a disco ball like thing with lights also spun really fast, im autistic and have sensory issues so i ended up keeping my eyes closed the entire ride, and i remember afterwards really wanting hand sanitatizer, i think i actually got sick not too long after riding it too, 0/10 dont recommend

@AG7-MTM 2 месяца назад

If I were to make the full-size ride ASTM compliant, I would add seatbelts and slow down the hydraulic bouncing, almost to the rate of a lift rather than a bounce

You are truely exaggerating in terms of danger. And the bouncing is solved with pneumatics, not hydraulics. Despite of that, love flatrides, love your series. Thanks.

@dougbriglmen716 Месяц назад

I’m sorry to have to be that guy, but they are not dangerous unless you do something stupid while riding them. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the majority of injuries or deaths are from rider’s own stupidity! I go on them all the time here in Scotland and the rest of the UK, but I have never been injured. I personally oppose any regulations that spoil the point of a ride or even stop a ride type from even operating. I’m not against health and safety, but it should never ever be at the expense of a ride being unable to operate or spoil the point of a ride simply for them doing what they were designed to do from the beginning.
