This is a short POV video of me riding the Alien Invasion (Gravitron) at the 2022 Fryeburg Fair, run by Dreamland Amusements in Maine.
The Gravitron is one of my favorite thrill rides, and it can usually be found at most carnivals and fairs. The Gravitron is a UFO shaped ride which spins around really fast and causes you to stick to the walls and lift up off the floor, due to the g-forces that are created from the high speeds. This one in particular is named "Alien Invasion" because of the alien decorations that are located next to the ride. As you can see in the video, some people will try to take advantage of being stuck to the wall by trying to turn themselves upside down or sideways while the ride is in motion. This video is the second one I have filmed for this ride this year, although this one is is the "nighttime edition", which means that there are a lot of bright and colorful lights that are turned off during the daytime.
It’s a really amazing experience overall, especially with the lights and loud music that accompanies it. If any of you guys are into spinning rides, I highly recommend trying out the Gravitron the next time you go to your local fair!
