Thrill Ride: The Science of Fun

Thrill Ride: The Science of Fun

Release Date: 1997-07-11

Overview: How to create the imagination of movement for fun parks is the theme of this documentary. Although engineers try and try to create machines that shake, tilt, turn, lift and drop people in a way that fools their senses, the real McCoy cannot be imitated: Roller Coasters just let you experience movement much, much more intense than everything else - even on the screen.
