- Right in front of my house they built up a funfair ride for the next weekend. It's a lot of work for the short fun of the riders.... Two trucks full of stuff installed in one whole day from early morning to late afternoon.
The ride is named "Scorpion"

Nice to see how seriously they took safety, plenty of checking, double checking, triple checking, and even quadruple checking of the pins that hold the cars in place. Very professional.
I'm pretty sure at about 12:30 mins just before lights came on he was checking for the loose connection that was preventing it the ride from coming to life. He hit the power button and he got an error. Checked connections, tried again, 3rd time was a charm.
If something would happen they would no longer have a job since no one would hire them anymore so that is of course imperative to check.
They definitely not professional. You literally can get a job with them when they come to your city
@@MissRory662 in the UK Generally you need someone in the family or a relation connection with showmen to get a decent job on these
@@MissRory662 plus these aren’t American Carnie’s who do as they please and hire who they please
I worked for a company that did this for 3 years. I miss it a lot its a very hard job but rewarding to see the families having so much fun. Its also very stressful for some of us too, so keep that in mind if you see some of the workers irritated, a lot of kids and parents ignore the safety rules.
I feel you i work for an amusement company and the setup and pack up for the rides are complicated but very unique a lot of people dont know how much we go through to have a ride setup and ready for them to ride.
@captain scentsible39 different companies pay different prices it doesnt matter how much you get paid it all matters if you get to work for the company that owns your favourite rides.
@@SimzGamez absolutely, I honestly do miss it a lot. Some of the best people I've ever met
@captain scentsible39 pay is dependent on a lot, but you can definitely make a comfortable living off of it. I knew 2 couples who worked with me and they both could support their families. Bonus, the kids got to spend all summer traveling the state and riding for free.
@@seandelong8818 one of the best perks for your family when you work on them they get free rides
So well thought out these Fairground rides, rather enjoyable to see it come together.
I saw this exact same comment on the giant will set up this is in that same location I am tripping c
So, that was all in one day? wow!
normally a ride like this is set up in 4 to 6 hours..
And it takes my ass 2 days to set up 4 chairs 😭😭
Can you do fire ball ride set up
He started like 4 am or something
I can't sleep until they move it in the middle of the circle pattern on the ground.
gabest4 yeah, I’m with you - that was driving me nuts!
Thank God I'm not the only one. #OCD
There are rocks in the way.
Gabe it's been three months...... surely you're tired by now?
That's bugging me too.
Great video! Thanks for making and sharing!!!
I used to build up the first Fairmatt built machine of this type, we used to take the wheels out and lower the machine on to sleepers, all the packing and jacks were kept in underboxes up near the swan neck both sides and some packing blocks on the trailer at the back floor section all 3 Arms folded towards the paybox and at the back end of the truck had frames for the steps. like the idea this fella has with the pallet truck and his packing but its all extra work
Yet another awesome video ... Thank you
That Looks Like a Fun ride to Go on.
Oh. Now you have to film yourself riding it! :)
oh yeah
This is a great DIY
I worked out on a Michigan carnival skerbecks family carnival great people miss it may go back out sometime some of the best times of my life
Interesting to watch. You should send them this video.
9:50 massive subwoofers coming out! 😎🔊🔊🔊
Awesome!!
I pooped 3 times at this funfair my stomach was so upset. I rode this ride twice!
That's a nice looking Arbiter I ran the first Orbiter it was in the United States he should be an old ground Mount ride
Trop cool 👍
Song kinda sounds like Brazil by deadmau5 :) Cool video, thanks!
You're welcome!
My uncle built this and I have proof I travel on fairs my self with a ride
Hell of a lot of work to build this ride.
Geweldig.. EN gezellig
I need to ride the Scorpion some time
that's he Troika
Wow!!
Were there any other funfair rides besides this one?
Obviously it wouldn’t be a “fun fair” with one ride 😂
When they unfold it towards the beginning, what's holding those cars in place? They're not bolted down.
There are holes visible in the floor. The cars must be held in place by screws or hooks.
Nice
Math question of the day, how many tickets sold would it take to pay for the ride and equipment, and team to haul it and set up? Nice video Thanks!
@Black Toof this type of ride can make a $100,000 within 3 months alone. Its considerd a spectacular.
Rhythm Blackheart costs $300,000\500,000 or more too too buy tho
Is this a 1 ride fair
Great video. Ive always been fascinated with travelling funfair and childhood ambition is to open one! But these rides cost bombs. I always wonder do these rides comes with manual when they first arrive to a buyer? How did they know how to set it up otherwise?
These machines are just updated machines of really old rides when a machine is bought the manufacturer will teach the owner how to build up and pull down but 9 times out of ten we know how to build them up anyways, an old waltzed used to come in a lorry and a center but the new fair trade Walters are single units but build the same way just more easy
@@sduff7027 hii. Do u own or worked on these rides? My ambition is to open a traveling funfair too. Building up the rides, bring laughter to the public, tgen dismantle n travel to somewhere. How many rides do u own?
@@9qdad318 I wish I owned some on and off I've worked on the gaffs for 15 years between real jobs lol. Ive worked on waltzers twister big wheel dragon coaster round up gallapers dodgems paratrooper tagada helta skelta so if you need any information I've got lots of experience for you mate.
I would love to know where i can buy these rides. I wan to set up a travelling funfair in Singapore.
@@9qdad318 A lot of times these are online. Check out coaster college flatride of the week to get more information on rides. I’m not sure about Singapore specifically, but a good company to try looking at is Mondial rides. They make some classic thrill rides such as the Inferno, Top scan, and top spin. I hope I’m able to help you, and I wish you good luck on your dream!
Who wouldn't want a carnival a few yards (or meters) from their house!!! Is such placement common in Germany/Europe? Folks must be young at heart. I haven't seen anything like this in US - usually at a fairgrounds or maybe a commercial parking lot.
well this is like a city festival, The rides are everywhere. They even closed the main road to place food stands there. :-) It's only three days...
Christ it goes fairly fast!!
Did you notice that it is a time lapse...?
It bothers me they didn't setup more centered in the painted circle.
You're not the only one with that problem :-)
BTW the circle is not painted, it's a different kind of cobblestone.
Of when is the music
How many days does the fair stay for?
3 days
Where is this? What I found frightening was the two people that enter the scene at 7.39 and sit against the white wall to the left of the picture. It is amazing how much one moves ones head and hands when you're chewing-the-fat with someone else...
Somewhere in Switzerland.
How many hrs does it take to assemble this ride??. Looks like a lot goes into setting these up
Well I started filming in the morning and they finished in the late afternoon.
if theres 3 of you's and all know your jobs a good 6 hours
Wow, that must've taken many hours to set up and its a lot more work than i expected. I thought it just unfolded and was ready to go. How is that ride powered? Electric or powered from the truck engine?
@1:28
I guess the cables on the right are connected to the public power grid. Easier, cheaper, no noise.
No this is only the trailer. Power comes from public grid... see the thick orange cables?
Usually rides run on generators on the back of truck some cases they will run to power boxes or other sources
@@marklee4004 u are correct I traveled for seven seasons fun hard work
@@1981mrdavid company I worked with had cats n Cummins pup trailer generators made me deaf
In Europe do the guys who work at carnivals have a bad reputation like they do here in the states?
Well here in euorpe its not the showmen owners but the cssual workers who get the bad name..
Poor pay bad living conditions.
Thd owners live in 5th wheel trailers 200 thousand dollars a piece...the workers sleep in back of trucks or a 500 dollar trailer....
Very hard heavy work building up a ride..at big carnivals owners make big money.but rides cost upto a million dollars so thet need it..

That looks like a Troika.
what is this ride called?
It's A Troika, my favourite Flatride. (40m is height limit,70mph is speed limit)
How many rides are there?
Where? In my town? Not so many, maybe five but a lot of small stands with all kinds of food and stuff.
How is the name of this ride?
Thats what I want to know
My dad sets up show rides
can i see this in action?
Go to somewhere in Switzerland and you will.
What the ride called it look awesome
The year before it was called Octopus....
Generic name is Tri Star
The German name for it is Scorpion - Schuler.
Troika
Make another one
Did you ride that funfair ride?
No, I'm not a big fan of riding those things. But the technology is fascinating.
Now I know where your house lifes hehe ...
Ikea, right?
Yes it is a lot of work setting up and tearing down I us to work for one such company
Build up and pull down its called
I still had to set the speed of the video to fast myself
Gee i hope it dont go that fast. Lol
Looks like a Tivoli Scorpion from the shape of the cars
No it looks more like Calgary Stampede from Thorpe Park. 1993-2003
@@Coaster_Cray_Cray Calgary Stampede was a ‘Tristar’ ride, manufactured by Fairmatt and yes looks the same as this one. Same bracings on the arms etc
Kenapa buka dan tutup
YAWN WHY
Its called Scorpion
Omg good idea but my OCD bc it's not in the middle of the circle and it's the world's boringist ride ever
I have seen more boring rides that that.... But you're right with the circle :-) I guess it would have been too close to the trees.
Eita buscar ela na era na faixa de pedestre né o vídeo da fase pedaço aí tava gravando aí falou assim faixa na faixa de

The whole setup is messing with my OCD the camera is angled weird the ride isn’t centered
Your comment is messing with my OCD.... you wrote rise instead of ride. Are you doing that to torture me...? ;-)
Play with Junk no lol just a typo now it’s bugging me and I can’t edit...
Creepy... someone edited it anyway.
Play with Junk what’s even creepier after watching this video I had a job offer of hauling rides and setting them up. Still on the fence about it.
what`s the ride name?
1. It is clearly visible in the video. 2. It is written in the description. ...duh!
@@PlaywithJunk OK MAN
@@PlaywithJunk AND I AM OBSESED WHIT FAIRS DUH
@@PlaywithJunk you are starting to make fun of people
@@RealAlexzX I'm only making fun of people who ask questions that are easy to answer by themself....
I have a video about a tiny little fan and in the video description I wrote where you can get it. Nevertheless uncounted people ask me "where can I get it?" That's another moment when I get sarcastic... ;-)
this song sounds like jaded by deadmau5 but not.
Need 7 replacement bulbs
Why do you think that was a useful comment..?
@@PlaywithJunk Better than needing 31 replacement bulbs.
@@williamboyle8918 That is true... ;-)
Das muss sehr teuer gewesen sein.
Music is annoying. I would have put Carnival music in the background. But cool video
Good idea, maybe next time. Not so easy to find the proper music always.
Pro Tip:
Watch in 2x speed
Wolfie how
No, no, no! At 7:15 he put pin c5 into slot b5. Hundreds of people will die! Someone stop the coming atrocity!
.
@David N ...
I dunno why RUclips adviced me to watch that Video but its not really difficult to install a camera aside, let it record and fasten it up in the end. Thats more a lazy timelapse. But i Dont wanna judge :p
Nobody said it was difficult... But finding the right moment and opportunity is worth watching. Or not?
@@PlaywithJunk its interessting thats righr :p
are the people that work at the carnival in europe look like a bunch of dudes that look like they have done hard drugs there whole life like in the states?
No those dudes looked totally normal like responsible workers who are concerned about safety... ;-)
I’m not riding something they put together in 14 minutes and 29 seconds lol
Swiss workers are fast and good! :-)
@@PlaywithJunk lol loved the video so I got bored and literally searched this 😂🤣😂
Disliked for not putting it in the center of the circle.
This is not my fault...
pingpongpung You better change that to a like
@@j_y06 Or else what?
song is almost like deadmau5 - brazil
