rotor ride. the rotor is the kind of thing that elicits excitement every time it comes around (pardon the pun). it's an amusement based on the principal of centrifugal force. thrill-seekers stand around the edge of the round room as it begins to spin. when it's going fast enough, the floor drops out and the riders find themselves stuck to the wall. in cases of extreme nausea, this thing bears a strong resemblance to another attraction—the spin-o-paint booth. |
