Me and my friend went on this at the carnival, me not knowing at all how the ride was going to be cuz I haven't been on it before I was nervous. But when I did go on it I freaking closed my eyes and almost had a panic attack, on top of that my neck wasn't used to the thrashing of the ride and the flips so I got a goosebump on my forehead from the cage door. XD
this was the last carnival ride I ever rode on. I volunteered to ride with a stranger because I was the odd man in our group. I vomited in the ride and was so embarrassed.. stuck to bumper cars and Ferris wheels since that day
Okay so I just went on it yesterday and yes you do feel butterflies . Not as much where you want to cry or anything but your stomach WILL flip if its your first time . I advise you to go with three people and sit in the middle, push yourself firmly against the cart and scream when you go over the flips because it does go pretty fast .
Chynna S. Lee It all depends on how quickly they are operating the boom. If it is going at higher speeds, you will flip over multiple times on most revolutions. If not, the car will just rock back and forth. The former results in a very intense ride.
No not really just keep your head back against the head rest. If you read in the description it says The original 14 the boom rotated at 11 rpm and the cable system at 7 rpm. These first-generation rides kept the passenger compartments spinning on their axes constantly, creating unsafe g-forces and causing impact-related injuries such as whiplash, bruises and back injuries. The safety hazard was quickly discovered and the mechanical rpms were permanently lowered to current speeds.
Went on this twice yesterday at the Royal Melbourne Show. Both times I was alone in my cart (which according to the description I shouldn't have been). The first time I was completely alone on the ride, bring the only rider in any of the carts. The second time I was accompanied my 4 other riders in 2 other carts, and I flipped 28 times without encouraging the cart to flip. I also hit my head twice on the second ride and I'm lucky I didn't get a concussion. This is the best ride I have ever ridden and I'm hoping it's at the Traralgon Show this year :D (btw i waited 8 years to finally find one, and I'm so glad I did)
I remember when I was 8.. I rode this. I was literally screaming "I'M PETRIFIED!!!!" my sister said I was annoying when I was screaming that, lmao. good o'l times.
The first time I ever rode this ride was today. 5/24/15. I rode it with my best friend, Madison and let me tell you this; it was probably one of my best and worst decisions I've ever made. Yes, I am still truly terrified of this ride but at least I sort of overcame and actually rode it. I HAD NO CHOICE TBH. You don't fly off the seat, maybe you do if you do not hold onto the handle bars. The guy told me no matter what, the door will not open. Yeah, I listened and kept my hands on the handle bars the whole time. I was terrified out of my mind that I couldn't even breathe through my nose. The ride started and my eyes shut automatically. TIGHTLY SHUT. I opened them a couple of times but they were always on the bad parts! While the cart was spinning, I sort of flew up by not holding on really tightly to the handle bars. (keep in mind that this was my very first time riding this ride!) I hit my head on the handle bars really hard. At this point, I was screaming. My friend was laughing and I was sort of laughing myself but the fact that I WAS ON A 90MPH RIDE, WAS NOT FUNNY AT ALL. 40 seconds into the ride, my friend thought I was crying and she got really serious. I was about to cry tbh. PROBABLY ONE OF MY WORST EXPERIENCES EVER ON A CARNIVAL RIDE. Finally the ride stopped, and it was still rocking. My screams silenced a bit but I was still freaking out. My friend was just like "Breathe, breathe, breathe! Julie Breathe!" I WAS BREATHING JUST FINE BUT HEAVY BREATHING OF COURSE. The guy opened the cart and said, "Are you ever gonna ride this ride again?" WITH A BIG GRIN AND I SAID NOPE. Once I got out, I was shaking and my friends dad got it ALL on tape! FML. 😂 Other than all that, it was pretty fun...
First time I was pushed to ride it I had a great time. I went on it again years later and it was terrifying. Glad I tried it a few times, done with it for good now haha.
I got on this with some girl. She was screaming because we were at the top and I started rocking it back and forth. When the ride started slob was flying everywhere she was screaming and then it went backwards. 😂😂😂😂 OH MA LAWD. When we got off she had cage marks on her face. It was a fun and intense ride. Loved it.
When I went on it the first time, I went with this one girl from school and we both were screaming. The second time I went on with a different friend from school and we both screamed as well but it was scary and amazing.
I love this ride SO MUCH. Whenever I get on this with my cousins, we always have never ending flips... we would be laughing so hard... Ahhhh good ol days.
The carnival always would be in Oakland whenever the greatful dead came to the colossiem for a show and when the show was over we would go ride the zipper while we were still high on acid.lol
Amazing. I went to the Santa Clara shows and Great America was right next door so I took some molly and rolled on the rollercoasters and that was just as much fun as the zipper on acid. Lol
I've ridden a Zipper or two as well, but if i had to choose one to ride back to back, i'd rather ride a Sky Diver..the Zipper's big brother. =) There's a Sky Diver set up at the NC State Fair right now, but it's got that shitty no single rider rule which sucks. :(
Me and my brother went on this ride In the same booth thing and we just called it the cranium shaker because we are fans of the diary of a wimpy kid series and didn't care if it was a bit different
if you going on this ride for the first time go with three people, sit in the middle, hold on with death grips on the bars, close your eyes, and scream your head off. It makes you feel better then if you go on it again it’s not as bad. I personally love this ride because I love spinny rides but some people are different. Everyone says you feel butterfly’s but all I felt was pressure from flipping. Just remember to try new things and if you like this ride then you can keep going but if not that’s okay.
It goes higher and faster depending on where u go. I went on it in ms with my dad. I almost hit my head 4 times. I actually had to concentrate to keep on riding to the point where I would hold my breath and not talk. My dad says that after it, he noticed the cage we got on. He said every year that one is the one that spins the most( for some unknown reason)
I am 11 and I've done this more than 20 times with my friends :T my friends just sit there screaming with their eyes closed and I'm just over there laughing in tears XD
The noise of this ride is what scares the crap out of me but I love the ride went on it yesterday 4 times haha
yes just like the fireball its so fun but the sound makes me cringe
I love the noise. It's always made me laugh, even before I went on the ride.
The sound is the best thing about it 💯
The worst and best part about this ride is when you get to the top and your cart is facing the opposite way from where you're going to fall...
I love all the feelings of weightlessness you get
thats the best part because u can lean back and flip lol
@@apothecurio They're negative G forces. I feel like I'm in a Sonic special stage (the first game, of course.)
I remember this, it was hell x.x
It's fun tho
lol i agree :D
Nitro Coyote yes it was,i got lots of bruises on my legs RIPepperoni
Yes it was.
+Nitro Coyote I wont go on an zipper unless it has OTSR ( Over The Shoulder Restraints )
OMG IM SCARED IM GOING ON IT TOMORROW >_
Me too
Lance Cochran lol i went on it a year ago, best ride of my life. :D
+Jenna Davito was it scary?
Our fair is the 22nd this month I'm so excited
I'm going on Friday😫😫😫
Oh god I remember being on this once. Brought back terrifying memories 😂😭
I hate this ride so much, yet I go on it every year because it scares the pants off me.
I'm going on it tomorrow, and I feel the exact same way! :S
I went on it yesterday and WOW! I REGRET DOING THAT! my dad has a video of me just screaming so loud..
LOl, I'm going on it next week and whenever I go on it, my, frien d just sits there laughing at me practically crying/laughing/screaming.
I love this ride too much..

This, the Dragon Loops, and the Pharaoh's Fury are my current favorite carnival rides.
Pharaohs fury is goated, i was lucky enough to ride the utah state fair one
I love the sound this ride makes. It's very distinct and unique and adds to the thrill of the ride
The Zipper RIDE is the best sound in the world...Has the most distinctive sound !
this is one of the best rides ever designed and its alot of fun.this looks newer older ones had steel baskets those look like aluminum,very cool
I tried making the zipper out of legos. It turned into a death ride
this was the last carnival ride I ever rode on. I volunteered to ride with a stranger because I was the odd man in our group. I vomited in the ride and was so embarrassed.. stuck to bumper cars and Ferris wheels since that day
i was so scared to go on this ride, BUT NOW I LOVE IT
Does this ride tickle your stomach (BUTTERFLIES) ????? >.
yes yes yes. I hate that feeling, i went on this thinking it didnt, and it did... But when u scream as loud as you can u dont feel the butterflies.
yep you kind of do your first time
Okay so I just went on it yesterday and yes you do feel butterflies . Not as much where you want to cry or anything but your stomach WILL flip if its your first time .

This is one of my favorite fair rides!! You got a hot seat! Cant wait for the next vid, I hope you make more offrides, as I prefer those!!
This ride is amazing, it's my favorite!
I just get chills from watching this because I remember when I rode it lol.

Same, when i rode it. i turned into a sailor and cussed.. quite alot. It's terrorfiying..
SnakesAreCute it's so awful and makes you very dizzy and my head hurt so badly.

I just rode this tonight and it was awesome!
I'm going on this next month, and im so hyped!!! I love zippers, plus, this will be my first time!!!💕
After, I don't think you'll like it so much.
@@Username-cx3ey
What makes you say that??? It was nice.
Closest thing to a Ferris wheel I will ever ride! And I love the sound it makes!
How can he be recording!! D: I couldn't even keep my eyes open 😂
i had to sing to stop freaking out.
+Døpe Tesfaye really wow
i rode it with my best friend when i just turned 10 and it was THE BEST RIDE EVER YOU'LL LOVE IT

Another biggest comment!!!
@@YuukiTakemoto1996 it’s called over-exaggerating, i was scared out of my mind and felt like i was going that fast lmao🥲
This ride is no joke! Super fun!
First time I was pushed to ride it I had a great time. I went on it again years later and it was terrifying. Glad I tried it a few times, done with it for good now haha.
this ride was awesome when I was alive...
Excellent POV of a zipper, man! I love the sounds the ride makes and everything.
i love this ride i cryed the 1 time i rode this ride but know i want to ride it but you will not see me with my eyes upon:)
Love it when it goes backwards
Yeah, best ride ever in the 80's!
I remember getting on this ride in the Superdome going in reverse is not so bad it's going forward otherwise it was fun.
Love this ride ! 😍😍😍
Oh never heard of a sky diver. Ill have to look it up sounds crazy cause the Zipper is already crazy lol.
I remember screaming while reading that warning sign out loud on this ride while my friend laughed.
Yes.
this ride is awesome my sister and I love it
I ride the zipper twice in my entire life is awesome if I have another opportunity I will take a ride again .
I love the zipper it is the best ride I ever rode
im so scared of this ride, but yet every time the carnival comes into town i ride it haha!
I love this ride the Sounds on it are cool
I got on this with some girl. She was screaming because we were at the top and I started rocking it back and forth. When the ride started slob was flying everywhere she was screaming and then it went backwards. 😂😂😂😂 OH MA LAWD. When we got off she had cage marks on her face. It was a fun and intense ride.

When I went on it the first time, I went with this one girl from school and we both were screaming. The second time I went on with a different friend from school and we both screamed as well but it was scary and amazing.
I love this ride even at 48
I love this ride
There is no cart that swings more then others. It just depends on what position the cart is and what direction the ride is going so yea.
I am watching from Elmira NY I enjoyed the zipper ride very much when I rode it awesome video
Well i have seen younger then 11 year olds go on this. It all depends on if your afraid of rides or not.
Yeah at that pont you really get butterflies.
Great video
Sounds Like A Nuclear Sound Going Up On The Zipper
Face
Dude it sure does I was thinking that in my mind
omg I remember this ride from the SCA fair back in NY. Long Lost Memories.
Yeah exactly!
I had been on this ride once ONCE and that was enough for me , i will ride the bad ass roller coasters of the world BUT THAT THING NEVER AGAIN!!!!!
I love this ride SO MUCH. Whenever I get on this with my cousins, we always have never ending flips... we would be laughing so hard... Ahhhh good ol days.
This zipper is honestly one of my all time favorites because it's a different ride every time. pretty wild!
Omg I love this ride
When i went on the ride the first time i literally screamed so loud that china could hear it the second time was fun.
I am about to go on it
Can Japan hear it?
I love it and I love you so much fun to watch
Really good and the other hand the ball and I love it so
Got 17 consecutive spins on this. Was intense
The carnival always would be in Oakland whenever the greatful dead came to the colossiem for a show and when the show was over we would go ride the zipper while we were still high on acid.lol
Yes my rainbow name is sky
Amazing. I went to the Santa Clara shows and Great America was right next door so I took some molly and rolled on the rollercoasters and that was just as much fun as the zipper on acid. Lol
That kinda describes my life.
@@tomtherobot9399 WHY IS TOM HERE?!
I don't think I wanna go on a Zipper while on any drugs...
Omg I love the sound the zipper makes
It looks really scary but once you are actually riding it, its awesome! Trust me
haha yeah this ride is really fun, and it surprisingly doesn’t make me nauseous one bit
I've ridden a Zipper or two as well, but if i had to choose one to ride back to back, i'd rather ride a Sky Diver..the Zipper's big brother. =) There's a Sky Diver set up at the NC State Fair right now, but it's got that shitty no single rider rule which sucks. :(
This ride is crazy
Why what happened?
best ride ever!!!!!
i lovvveeee this ride
Yes it can if it spins too much or im on for too long.
I remember going to the Spencer fair and riding this it made me sick
I went on it 2 times in a row then waited awhile and went on it again with my friend... You should of heard us screaming haha.
I can't wait to go I'm going tomorrow exited
@Kay Tommo Actually you should see Hi-Roller. Now that's an intense ride. Of course I haven't been on it but I know it's intense
That's basically Cyborg Cyber Spin
The scariest part is about halfway through you have that HUGE drop
Me and my brother went on this ride In the same booth thing and we just called it the cranium shaker because we are fans of the diary of a wimpy kid series and didn't care if it was a bit different
Love that ride sooo
Funnest ride ever
you are a pro at this I'm 9 and I've been on this so many times but I still have to scream
OMG this ride is so fun I go on it every year and I'm in grade 6
Nice video
i love when it goes over the wheel
the zipper is here in my school cant wait[miami]

I'm a baby when it comes to rides but I rode this.PEOPLE THE RIDE IS NOT SCARY!
like the kamikaze!
It goes higher and faster depending on where u go. I went on it in ms with my dad. I almost hit my head 4 times. I actually had to concentrate to keep on riding to the point where I would hold my breath and not talk. My dad says that after it, he noticed the cage we got on. He said every year that one is the one that spins the most( for some unknown reason)
When I rode this I closed my eyes and laughed xD
I love the zipper
My brother made me ride on this!

I am 11 and I've done this more than 20 times with my friends :T my friends just sit there screaming with their eyes closed and I'm just over there laughing in tears XD
I'm 13 and I've never done it cuz I'm a wimp
Supergurl 97
lol try it its fun
me2
I'm not gonna lie..the one we have here goes 3 times as fast. I went on it tonight and cried. Everything was loose and it felt like a death penalty.
