We were traveling carnies for a while when I was a kid. My dad and brother ran some of the rides. They never ran the graviton, but my dad's best friend there did. I once spent an entire day in a graviton. Literally from when they opened until they closed it that night, only coming out to pee and vomit. It was amazing, and I have never once enjoyed the ride since. Lmao
one motherfucker did this at the fair in town. He leaned back too far and rippen through that canvas ceiling above him. I guess it fling him about a block away before he landed in somebody's yard.
They still use the same machine, but there's a huge duct tapped patch over one of those triangles in the ceiling.
