A mistake that the Institute for Centrifugal Research** works tirelessly to correct. The ICR's "pioneering achievements in the realms of brain manipulation, excessive G-Force and prenatal simulations" are illustrated, quite vividly, in Till Nowak's short documentary, presented below. I beg you, please, wait for the "wedding cake" amusement ride.Posted by gerardvanderleun at February 10, 2013 9:07 AM
Dr. Seuss designs carnival rides!
True story: At a carnival in a small Mexican village I joined some friend on the ol' Egg Scrambler ride. Problem was, the operator got to talking/flirting with some girl and forgot to stop the ride. At one point, you could feel your brain moving inside your head. It startled the stoic Aztec descendant when we screamed and begged for it to stop. I was sick for a day afterwards.

I read somewhere that people aged 45 and over should stay off most carnival rides and not go to 3D movies, since they have a tendency to cause strokes.
