We Went to a CRAZY German Fair! Riding Unhinged Attractions in Hamburg!

[@Cueya]

Gotta say the new universal studios animatronics cost millions of dollars but you could pay an actor $18 an hour to look very very realistic

[@CoasterStudios]

😂😂😂

[@RodrigoColimodio]

It might sound silly but I actually think it would be interesting if a park like Universal incorporated actors instead of animatronics sometime. Not only would it be more realistic and interactive, probably even cheaper in the long run. Imagine having two to three actors rotating in a work day, dressed and made up like part of the scenery like when Johnny Depp made that appearance on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. I think it would make the ride experience even better and people would appreciate it a lot.

[@tannert.2296]

@@RodrigoColimodioin no universe is the cost of real actors less of that of an animatronic in the long run

[@barbarabornholdt2854]

Gabby on the wild mouse! 😂 And that last ride Shaker.. i laughed so much along with you all great vlog!

[@Happymali10]

The funniest part is that the fair we got in Hamburg is called the "Hamburger Dom". In any other german city, the "Dom" is a large church, so you occasionally get tourists looking around our numerous churches asking which one is the "Hamburger Dom" and then you gotta tell them it's not a building. And might not even be there right now. (On a side-note, even if they can look a bit sketchy German fair-rides are pretty safe as they're closely monitored by the TÜV)

[@djddog5_hiphoptappjazzclub42]

The reason you had Wild Maus XXL tickets for the standard Wild Maus is cause they are both owned by the same showmen. I had the pleasure of visiting two German funfairs in September they were absolutely incredible.

[@CoasterStudios]

ah makes sense!

[@luuk777w]

You should've gone on a busier night to see the real craziness! People standing around the attractions and when the attraction comes to a stop people jump on them while it is still running!

[@BruinPhD2009]

When I was in the Army, I was stationed in Germany twice. Those rides at the different German fests are beyond loco. In case no one else has pointed it out, y’all were near the Hamburger Dom (pronounced Dome), which is the word for cathedral. In Italy the word is Duomo. I miss living in a place where France, Switzerland, Belgium, Italy, and the Netherlands was less than a day’s drive away. 😢

[@kickthesky]

I was in Baumholder. German fair rides are beyond next level. The ride operators there are also sadistic!

[@visjenl]

For the next trip you should look at the Tilburg fair in the Netherlands, it is one of the world largest and has around 200 of unique and special rides.

This fair looks sooooo much cleaner than any state fair here in the states lol

The shaker you and tanner did I’m pretty sure comes to a fair in south Florida every year. I feel like I’ve ridden throughout my childhood! Should definitely stop by the fair down here sometime if you want to see crazy flat rides!

Oh my God, you came to Hamburg!!! Hope you enjoyed the city!

[@maxhagenauer24]

I remember my local fair didn't even have rides and this thing is absolutely insane! I wanna go get those rides and foods!

[@linush.7310]

I really love the shaker. I once did it and our car gor kind of out of control and kept on spinning for the whole ride.

I'm personally a fan of fairs/carnivals that look well put together enough that people could mistake it for a permanent amusement park.

When you guys eventually come back to Australia (which you will have to as Dreamworld is building a new coaster (and hopefully they'll be doing the spinning backseat on the blue fire clone while you're there), and Movieworld is building a wizard of oz section), you will also have to plan it around August so you can do the EKKA too. It's an agricultural show in Brisbane that has grown so big it's now become a big fair with plenty of flat rides. Well worth doing.

If you loved Shaker, you have to give Commander (usually found on the Bremer Freimarkt) or Shake & Roll a try. Both rides are operated so much better :)

[@ZakFarren]

Dr Archibald (the VR dark ride) is one of the most famous traveling rides in Europe. Its not perfect but its a really cool unique experience with highly themed queue, preshow and exit path!! shame you skipped

[@CoasterStudios]

next time!!

[@MIKEYPOOHBEARJACKSON]

I just love their funfair and how some rides are like night clubs

[@hansvanzutphen]

That Shaker thing is amazing! I went in both Ride to Happiness and Toutatis this year, but also in something that looked like Shaker (under a different name but clearly the same thing), and that was clearly the most extreme of all. I went in multiple days, but had to limit it to 3 rides per day so I could still drive home afterwards. I was told that the rides are highly affected by who's controlling it (it's not automated apparently), and on the best ride I had, my chair got into a spin and flipped 11 times in a row! Next year Iron Gwazy is on my list, after I do a 0-gravity flight at Kennedy Space Center :)

[@th3DarkJack]

Olympia Looping used to come to Hamburg as well. Sadly they haven't been there for some years.

[@DJWezzyK]

Dr Archibald VR Experience is now from one of the Sons of the owner of Olympia Looping, and I hope he does more then just the 5-6 funfairs from its previous owner. You be lucky you have no lines. this summer we waited a good 45 minutes a ride in Dusseldorf cause it was packed. And most German fairs have the same nights. Pretty packed. Especially on Saturdays and Sundays and people fight literally for a spot on the ride and some even trip over by running for a seat. Quite funny to watch.

[@TheMrdominator1997]

Can’t believe they just skipped passed it. Standard American behaviour

[@jbrollercoasters]

Ah the Shaker. Oh how i miss when one of those used to come to the MN State Fair. The Magnum

[@bdschannel4733]

That final flat ride looks awesome!

[@hansvanzutphen]

Yes! I went in that thing 11 times this year in a fair near where I live, if you have a good ride (each time it's different) it's more extreme than coasters like Ride to Happiness or Toutatis, despite it being a flat ride. I looked it up and apparently these were built in the 1990s!

[@thisrollercoasterlife498]

@@hansvanzutphen Mondial has been in business since the late 70's early 80's. While that ride model has been around for some time, newly manufactured ones are still being created. The only Shake model I've experienced was a brand-new build.

[@drdewott9154]

This was great! Definitely not as big as the Düsseldorf fair but to be fair that one is also one of the largest in the country. The ride selection is pretty typical for a mid-sized fair, I went to one in Berlin back in 2018 where the largest coaster was a Reverchon spinning mouse. Still much larger than the fair-rides we have back in Denmark though. I know Hamburger Dom used to be a regular stop for Teststrecke, aka the former Laser loop from Dorney park, almost identical to Colossus at Lagoon with the 2 big loops. That was however before Mellors group bought the ride and afaik it is now in Saudi Arabia. Bit of a shame really, it was one of the big 5 left on the fair circuit alongside Olympia Looping, Alpina Bahn, Hollenblitz, and Wilde Maus XXL.

[@Caelestan]

I rode the "Teststrecke" a few years ago in Hamburg and i miss it really hard. Was one of the best fair-rides i was on so far.

[@simonandlola7713]

[@Zatoka.]

There's another Shaker at Ocean City MD, (I forget what it's called there and I don't know the model name lmao,) and me and my brother probably rode that thing at least 5 times. Unhinged ride, easily one of my favorite flats.

[@thisrollercoasterlife498]

Does Trimper Rides still have it? My only visit was in 23 and I loved it. It's actually called a Shake and it's made by Mondial.

[@jenslehmann6118]

Nice Video from Hamburg 😊 Yes this is Not Wilde Maus XXL. I saw this ride one week before beginning of Hamburg Fair in Bremen on the Freimarkt. Greetings from Germany 😊 Edit: now i see it was Summer Edition of this Fair. Currently there is Winter Dom taking place.

The restrooms cost a few cents because that's how they and their upkeep/cleaning is financed. The company that owns the toilet-containers uses that money to keep them in decent shape even while in use.

[@morbvsclz]

A big part of fairs is getting drunk, eating lovely food and especially for teenager and young adults -> See and be seen. All the boys trying to show off in the local annual town fair by sitting up in the break dance ride. Or "chasing" the girl you fancy in the bumber cars. Boys that age still think: I can impress the girls by riding the toughest ride and pretend to be bored (and not throw up) -> They'll all think I'm super tough and cool. Used to work better probably, when they were actually playing along and watching the boys, rather than scroll TikTok the entire time. I was too shy for that though anyways. I just got drunk with my friends 😀

[@darealsavage3472]

The shaker is found in the US called Magnum

[@Thesmokercoaster]

Yoooo you soo needed to have done dr Archibald it may be empty on the inside but that's because it's a vr experience. It comes to hyde park winter wonderland every year and it's awsome. It isnt what you think. The queue and exit lines are seriously well themed and really is something you have to see to believe. You missed out. But hey It gives you an excuse to go back to Europe......

[@CoasterStudios]

we just saw that the riders at VR headsets on meaning there was nothing to see on the inside and that was a turn off for us... sad to hear it was actually really cool. If we ever see it again we will do it!

[@Thesmokercoaster]

@@CoasterStudios fair play. It's not for everyone being a vr experience but it's worth for the queue and exit alone lol. I do agree however that for the people that don't like vr or it makes them sick, there could be themeing inside and make vr a euro or two more.

[@beerfish109]

@@CoasterStudios Yeah you missed out on it guys, it's known as one of the best "darkrides" the travelling fairs have around Europe atm. I get why you didn't do it though. Always good to have a reason to come back somewhere. Coasting through Europe 3 incoming?

[@IroAppe]

@@CoasterStudios It totally makes sense that you guys didn't do it. VR is a big hit&miss, and if I just stumbled upon an attraction in a fair that I have to pay quite a bit of money for, I also wouldn't have done it. Given that many attractions are show outside and nothing inside, the risk calculation is quite clear here. On the other hand - great to know! Now that I know that they're reputable and there is actually a great experience inside, I'll go there next time I see it.

I dont know about that, but it is the oldest listed one on RCDB. But it used to stand in Moscow during the Soviet Union days and then in Spreepark in Berlin until 1978 back when East Germany was around. After that it toured East Germany as a travelling coaster until German reunification where it got sold to its current owners. But yeah its a very old one, dating back to the 1960's, and with quite a history, being seemingly entirely used east of the iron curtain.

Man why are European fairs so much better than American ones? Like what is this? It's insane!

[@svenlakemeier]

The whole business is competely different. Most fairs in Germany are held by the city, and each showman has to apply with their ride, game stall or food stand. So presentation, reliability and unique offering are much more important here. Also on the fair itself each showman has to bring in their own money, so they try to be as attractive and inviting to the customers as possible. And as the rides only make money when selling individual tickets hourly throughput is a lot more interesting than in the US where the rides are more a draw to get people into the carnival and then make money with the food stands and games (speaking for smaller carnivals with one showman owning everything). On top of that the shorter distances allow for more transports while still earning money and less need to have everything on one truck.
