How It Works highlight of the day - Mater's Junkyard Jamboree One of the more mechanically complex and one of my most cited videos, Mater's Junkyard Jamboree is a custom whip/demolition derby ride from Zamperla, maker of many flat rides. If you've been to an amusement park in the last 20 years you'd ridden one of their rides. Featuring multiple turntables, the very mechanical ride grasps ride vehicles using a gear like setup and an eye shaped wedge in a slot. When it reaches a hand off point it's pushed off to the next table over and over. The ride vehicles also whip riders from left to right using a gas damper. While the concept of whip/demolition derby combined is new the rides they're comprised of/inspired by are from over 100 years ago. Google "Cuddle Up Ride".
