Classic, simple ride. Up until recently, my favorite non-coaster ride. A tough one to get others on for some reason. People will try some crazy stuff, but going up-side down seems to bother a lot non thrill ride fanatics. I love it. You sit on the padded floor of the car, lean against its back at a 100-120 degree angle. There are no straps, the force of the ride pins you in place, with bars to across either side (one a good height to lean your arms on like having them on the open window in a car). It rides one or two people (second person sits in front of first, kind of between their legs). Cars are in a circle, facing the one in front of it. They start spinning in a circle parallell with the ground and the force lifts the cars 90 degrees out so what was first pointing down is now pointing out and your head is closest part of you body to the center of the circle. Once its up to speed, it slowly lifts up until the circle is in ferris wheel position (except you're facing either up at the sky or down at the ground half way up and upside at the top), then back down.
