Basel Autumn Fair (12)

They, in joyful anticipation of another wild thrill ride.

They are sitting in a two-person car of ‘Break Dance’. Break Dance, manufactured by Huss Rides, is a souped-up teacups ride. It can be classified as a ‘music ride’, that uses lights, music and special effects, such as artificial fog, to draw in riders.

The ride is comprised of a large turntable with four hubs, each holding four two-person cars that can freely spin. When the ride is activated, the turntable rotates, and the hubs rotate in the opposite direction. The cars rock back and forth and rotate through 360°. The photo was taken two days ago on Basel’s Messeplatz.
