This assembly is so complex that it involves disassembly. Incredible mechanical engineering at it's purest. This is just mesmerizing, and you can tell the operator has the eye for safety and QC.
You know ! Some people think the carnival people are not very smart , but I'll bet thay live a great life and they are very smart , have have a great job ,and don't have to go to the same place every day and work , and thay get to meet all kinds of people who are there for a good time !
I thought with how thorough this was, that a 2 min operational night montage would be included. Missed opportunity. But definitely still a great video!
Wow I can't believe the advances in technology. I worked on a bumper car in Germany in 1974. Everything was iron, no hydraulics and no aluminum and took 5 men 3 days to assemble and a day and a half to pack up and move. Brutal hard work but lots of fun. Oh and it took 6 trailers to haul it all plus our 3 living (RV) trailers. The only thing the same is the leveling, blocking and squaring.
Hawkins of Rome NY was the original owner, was a great Amusement ride company now gone forever, I live in Rome and often see some trucks around town formally used for hauling rides around. Many memories of Hawkins
I live in the uk, i worked on a bumper car static park model, no matter how we tried to keep it covered, the floor was steel and rusted, and it would frequently need power washing, and a mechanical floor polisher machine running around it for a morning when the park was closed in low season, or the cars would stop working It wasnt so bad when it was seeing high traffic, because the tyres on the cars scrubbed the floor I worked on a top scan too, that was my favourite ride Im now a travelling showman myself, and im actually restoring a really old juvenile carousel, we call the small ones "Toysets" Its been left in a field for 18 years, and its going to need a lot of work Wish me luck
Cool video. I retired from Six Flags Over Ga And I had the Bumper Cars for 10 years they were very tough but very dirty from the brushes and steel floor. Good times.
Looked like a really nice day, weatherwise. Imagine doing this when it’s really hot, and muggy. You guys are the best. We take our kids and hope for a safe ride and thankful for people like you. Thank you.
The older guy in the grey out works the young guys, should be the other way around so they can learn how to be a hard working man, and take over one day! Cool to see the ride go up like this, bumper cars was one of my favorite rides at the amusement parks when I was a kid. Thanks for sharing keep up the great work
1950s early 60s, Revere Beach, Mass used to ride bumper cars, I was 10 years old then... watching you guys set those up reminds me, I can remember the smell of the electricity....
The company that does our county fair had the smaller version and they replaced it with ride that offers a better thrill and it's much easier to move. Same with the whacky Worm.
Great channel. I love learning inside information about things that everyone has seen but most people have never tried to even understand. Perfect RUclips content.
Wow, hats off to you folks it’s really a cool piece of engineering the way this is configured. Who would’ve thought! Also, the hard work that goes into set up and take down. That’s incredible.
Fascinating documentary. So much hard work. The European Reverchon tracks seem a lot less labour intensive though with far more components folding out.
I would’ve really like to have seen it at night and running. But very awesome. I cannot believe they can compact that much stuff into one small space. Technology. Thank you for the video.
The only thing that would have made the video even better was seeing the cars in action after all the setup was done. Other than that this was outstanding!!
Very entertaining and fun to watch. Thanks for posting this. What a masterpiece and a beautiful build too. Thanks for posting this as well. Have a nice day.
I really enjoyed this video, and I hope to see you do other rides too. I used to work for show that were local and my very first ride was a gas engine Loop o Plane and Funtastic Shows in Portland Oregon still uses it. Now called Wild thang. Thanks Darren.
awesome , i watched the entire setup, WOW, a Lot of work, but that's very cool, i wish i was there to either help, or just take a bumper car ride, LOL very interesting to say the least, great job to All.
Wow. Fascinating. Please keep these videos coming. I can barely remember as a child in the early 60's watching a small show set up every year in my village. EVERYTHING they had was ground mount: Eli wheel, Frolic, wooden swings, chair swings, carousel... One year they had a bumper car ride and it came on one, probably two vans. The floor supports were wooden beams, leveled on blocks just like you do (except for the laser level.) The floor was 4 x 8 wood frames with metal plates attached and they fitted together on the floor beams. The posts and scenery were all painted wood and the covering was classic brown canvas that must have weighed a ton. I don't recall how it was powered but all their other pieces had gasoline engines that drove cables or belts.
Lol, these guys have it made nowadays. Everything we setup back years ago was called ground mounts. We called it pig iron for a reason. All metal, nothing but hard Manuel back breaking labor.
A lovely job of work there harder than it seems, the forklift came in handy. I guess after setting up this ride it's all second nature but every time its still hard work though, very hard. One last thing, congratulations on buying this ride it must have cost a small fortune to get it made and supplied, it's good to entertain people though no matter how it's done. I just loved the Dogem cars when we went to the fairground in England..........

Could you please do a complete setup of your spider ride/ astro ride/ I see on your website that you have a osbation whell 84f would like to see a set up of those rides😊keep up the great work.
I was a transporter and solo crew of a shorter, single-axel version of your bumper car ride. A couple of issues I have is with your initial dropping of the ride of the truck. 1.) When dropping the airbags, the way you drop them leaves them potentiality chaffing, pinching, and blowing out going down the road. What I did was, while still hooked up to the trailer, back it up 4-6 inches past the mark, engage the trailer brake, release the cab, put blocking under the rear hydraulic plates with the blocks at least 4 inches in front of the tires, release the air from the rear, and let the trailer naturally roll forward seating on the blocks. 2.) For the goose-neck, don't drop it until you level and square up the main frame. This will reduce twisting the bars and arms of the platform to ensure it goes up and is seated properly for transport too. Speaking of dropping the neck, you don't block the front of this frame, thus risking the kingpin integrity and twisting the arms too. Minimize the movement of the heavy parts. I like how you have the steps to the utility box. That's something I never thought of installing, but that was also where the leads for the ride sat in transit for me. You also didn't mention brushing the wire-wheel being brushed out, or if you use some type of protection for the outer tubes of the tires on the cars. I used Talcum Powder and water to paint the outside of the tires to prevent gripping and ripping of tread. If you have any questions from my perspective, feel free to contact me.
Wow this was incredible! What a task to set it all up!! I’ll have a new appreciation when I go to the Anne Arundel Co Fair, Maryland in a few weeks (Jolly). Also, loved the music during the roof install - made me think of the movie Oceans 11.
You haven't got a clue pretty boy go out with the show for one season from the spring start to the end in the fall then tell me what you think about the life 18 years here
worked for a carnival in the mi 70's and their bumper cars was a manual assembly tooks hours to put up there was 3 rides that were hydralic assemblied the rock o plane, octopuss, and the tilt o whril there was a lot of manual back breaking work invovled
QUESTIONS ⁉️ 1st What's the total weight of the truck & trailer. 2nd Do you have to get a permit when traveling through different US states. 3rd Do you have to go through more truck driving training than just having your CDL. 4th Did you have any input on the design of your Bumper Car Trailer. 5th Are you more likely to be pulled over by State Police then your everyday truck driver. Also, what got you to want to pull around Bumper Cars in your later years in life. Badass semi. Just curious thanks 👍 🇺🇲
Thank you for all the questions! The truck and trailer are not overweight for normal interstate travel so we do not need special permits to travel from state to state. It only requires a CDL, no extra training is required, just a good driver who knows what he got behind him. There is always a risk of getting singled out by the state police because it's not your typical white box semi-trailer, but we haven't had any problems thus far. Our business is always growing and with that, we have to acquire new and fun rides to add to our inventory.
Still a lot of lifting work for a foldable dodgem. We have several brands here in Europe that build foldable dodgem tracks, like adesco, bertazzon or gosetto. We build up with 3 persons in 4 hours. And build down record with 3 persons is 90 minutes with an adesco dodgem with 24 cars. Our cars go in the pulling truck bcs roof, net and lightpackage fold automaticly on to the trailer.
Explaining that for a green or a mark makes it seem so much more difficult than it really is. I've slaughed this for midway of fun, Butler, Belle City, and 3 other companies, as well as quite a few other rides over a 13 year period.
We had a guy miss the post, and the stinger got welded to the floor. The only protection we have is a 50 amp breaker for the primary coil on the transformer
As someone who has done outdoor manual labor for the vast majority of his life, rebuilding and remodeling houses, I do believe I would get sick of doing this over and over again really fast. Could there not be some sorta screw jack system?
am in europe so its kinda fun to see a american bumper car ride build up, im just surprised it isnt self contained. like you guys need a forklift or such to build it. europe theyrefully self contained and only need a truck to pull it but everything is build in so the ride itself has winches and hydraulic rams to do lifting and whatnot where needed
Normally everything is lifted by man power alone. The event location just happened to have a forklift for us to use to make it a bit easier on our guys.
Few people realize how much work, attention to detail, and teamwork is required to set up a safe and operable ride. Really fascinating to see the engineering that goes into such machines. Question: how would you acquire/receive a part (like a relay) when you're on the road? Or are they common enough that you could pick them up at the local Grainger or McMaster-Carr? Thanks for the video and your dedication to safety!
You want a kolmax plus or supercar set, this what you have got is very labour intensive lots of heavy lifting and its not even that big! The European folding sets are the way forward 2 men can build up in 3 hours. Nice video tho!!!😁👍
My god you have it easy now all aluminium, not like the old days when it was all timber, and hand balled. If you were to put a rounded point on the end of the lower pick up on the car you would never get it wrong easy to do take out spigot drill a hole in the top put a thread in the hole then have a threaded dome that goes in the top. both could be retro fitted.
One of the best videos on the web. Fascinating to watch. What would we do without hydraulics? This is also true in the farming industry.. Thanks for a very good presentation.
Last bumper cars I rode, I noticed that between ride cycles, they would remove a contact wheel from a car, and clean it with a wire wheel to keep as many cars running as they could. You didn’t mention that as a routine maintenance for your’s, so I’m wondering if they were pulling too many amps, not keeping the contact grid clean enough, or what else could be causing a buildup that would break contact.
As a person of larger size, I hate the lap bars. Don't know about your ride. But i used to love the one's at the cider point. Then they updated the cars with the bars and now I can't ride. Luckily some older parks still have the shoulder restaurants. One size doesn't fit all unfortunately.
@@jessjanesky-BRW Well, gives room for a 10-minutes update in the future then :) Start doing B-rolls when up and about, never know when you might need it down the line on the YT track :) Anyway, was interresting watching how it's done..
How many hours does it take to set this particular ride up? Sorry if you mentioned it in the video if I missed it. There is a lot to setting this ride up but it looks grand after its set up. Thanks for sharing.
done well, could of used more help unloading cars...and screens....but very good job.... its not a 1 man job.... working together makes it so much smoother.
The engineering that went into that ride is extraordinary
This assembly is so complex that it involves disassembly. Incredible mechanical engineering at it's purest. This is just mesmerizing, and you can tell the operator has the eye for safety and QC.
Where's the gloves, helmets or any safety gear?

I had no idea that much work went into assembling the ride. Great job guys.

It wasnt so bad when it was seeing high traffic, because the tyres on the cars scrubbed the floor
I worked on a top scan too, that was my favourite ride
Im now a travelling showman myself, and im actually restoring a really old juvenile carousel, we call the small ones "Toysets"
Its been left in a field for 18 years, and its going to need a lot of work
Wish me luck
Cool video. I retired from Six Flags Over Ga
And I had the Bumper Cars for 10 years they were very tough but very dirty from the brushes and steel floor.
Good times.
oh how this brings back memories I did this kind of job for many years
Man look at that nice level surface set it up on a real fair lot

Man , mobile amusement park rides are the coolest it's so cool to see how such giant rides fold up into a truck trailer.
The Amount of Man (and Woman) Hours Necessary to Assemble this Ride is Off the Charts, Unbelievable and Impressive. A LOT of Salaries to Pay. WOW! 🤔👍🙏
The company that does our county fair had the smaller version and they replaced it with ride that offers a better thrill and it's much easier to move. Same with the whacky Worm.
I'm never gonna look at bumper car rides the same again. I never knew how much work went into setting up the ride
Great channel. I love learning inside information about things that everyone has seen but most people have never tried to even understand. Perfect RUclips content.
Love these videos, they are oddly fascinating. I must say, your attention to detail is admirable
used to work on the waltzers and speedway in the 70s and 80s great life i wish i was young again :)
That's amazing how that all unfolds from a trailer
Crazy how the whole ride unfolded from a semi truck. Transformers! More than meets the eye!

awsome video.. i wish theyed bring back. small town carnvals like they had back in the 60s 70s..
NIce functional well thought out design. Never realized how much work was involved in setting the ride up. Great job and video !! Stay Safe !!!!
Very entertaining and fun to watch. Thanks for posting this. What a masterpiece and a beautiful build too. Thanks for posting this as well. Have a nice day.
I use to work for Hawkins amusement ride and set that up and ran it a few times
I like to see how rides get set up there's a carnival in my town this weekend I love carnivals
I like it a lot and it's one of my favorite fairground rides and what I'm seeing are the bumper cars
I really enjoyed this video, and I hope to see you do other rides too. I used to work for show that were local and my very first ride was a gas engine Loop o Plane and Funtastic Shows in Portland Oregon still uses it. Now called Wild thang. Thanks Darren.
Ohhh i would love to clean that machine 😮. I would never stop. Love it .all the best from perth Scotland.
Another great video. I Thoroughly enjoy watching these to see how you do things across the pond 😊

Looks like Dover raceway. Though I saw Miles the mascot in background. Great job. Very interesting
Our fair used to have a smaller version of bumper cars. Not an easy ride to keep on the road.
having worked on the bumper cars as teen and having to build the entire arena from floor up, this looks like a breeze :)

is it bult in the USA or Europe?, Big engineering, all in 1 Car.
Have you seen the one load Dodgems built by Kollmax plus & CBK everything on it folds including the tilt.

Hai saya sangat menyukai dan kagum melihat wahana dengan satu truk trailer itu tidak ada di negara saya indonesia
Wanted to see it work 😢
You know if you took little of lubricant oil around your locking pin for your stairs. Pin would slide so much easier into place.
why did it end without showing it lit up in the dark? kinda missed that...
We did not have our generator to power the ride when the filming took place.
@@jessjanesky-BRW Well, gives room for a 10-minutes update in the future then :) Start doing B-rolls when up and about, never know when you might need it down the line on the YT track :) Anyway, was interresting watching how it's done..
I don't think I'd have the patience to have to setup and take down a ride I presume on avarage at least once a week like this.
How many hours does it take to set this particular ride up? Sorry if you mentioned it in the video if I missed it. There is a lot to setting this ride up but it looks grand after its set up. Thanks for sharing.
6 hours with 5 people
@johnnyhunter4345 Less if the boss isn't around. Blocking gets thrown around more.
Your video is so intelligent and clear. Well done. If someone had a private party could you increase the car speed?
What would the cost of a new Bumper Car similar to your operation?
Great video but 1 thing is missing.......you didn't show them running at the end.
All that and you didn't show us it switched on then running
The bags on rear of the ride should be and need to be deflated before ever unhooking from the semi…. Ask Vince if not convinced…
done well, could of used more help unloading cars...and screens....but very good job.... its not a 1 man job.... working together makes it so much smoother.
How many hours to build this masterpiece?
I set up a sixty by forty ground mount scooter didn't have a trailer mount ride
