Testing a zip line that goes round corners
Рет қаралды 2,456,563
5 жыл бұрынIf you invent a new theme park or amusement ride, how do you test it to make sure it's safe? There's no Federal Bureau of Zip Lines. I visited one of the companies that does just that sort of testing - and, now, inventing.

I'm worried that this video feels a bit like it's an infomercial. It's not sponsored, of course, I'd declare if it was -- but this happened because, basically, an email that says "Tom, do you want to visit a ride test facility and have a go on a zip-line that goes round corners?" is catnip for me.

@Zero Cool As explained in the video, if someone intentionally does something stupid such as slip out of a restraint on a rollercoaster, stands up, and gets killed, that's not the ride makers responsibility. In such a case it's absolutely the persons fault not the builders.
@zergreenone8111 5 жыл бұрын
@Zero Cool They are talking about 2:37 to 3:00 of the video. It is the job of the manufacturer to protect against "forseeable misuse", which includes some situations in which people intentionally do things that they aren't supposed to do, such as taking their phone out while on the ride. Edit: Both sides have a point. It isn't true that their job is purely to make sure Darwin awards aren't handed out too easily, they also need to make the ride safe in and of itself. On the other hand, it is true that a part of their job is to make sure Darwin awards aren't handed out TOO easily, but people could still be eligible for a Darwin award if they tried.

This looks like a very complicated technique to make ziplines go around corners. There is a much simpler technique at a tree climbing ziplining place near Marburg Germany, it was in one of their many climbs (rides?), the guy told me it was designed by swiss engineers. Basically the thing that attaches you to the metal wire has a cross-section that looks like the letter C, the wire is thicker than the opening of that C letter, and the wire is attached to trees (goes 90 around the tree), it's attached my metal pieces that are thinner than the opening of that C letter. The point of attachment is tilted at a reasonable angle so that the thing that attaches you to the wire can rotate a little bit (imagine the letter C rotating) to make that attachment point pass through. It's quite terrifying while you're in that ride because you feel like you keep getting detached from the wire, but it's completely safe :D I think the only limitation of that technique is that you can either have all turns be right or left, you can't have a mix of both, because that letter C has only one opening pointing towards only one side. But maybe there could be a way around that.

"it's easier to say that you should do everything reasonable rather than change the law every time..." Yes, I agree. With "vague" laws you have the ability to adapt to new things. Here in France it's the opposite, everything has to be exactly detailed otherwise the law straight up doesn't apply. it has two main consequences : There is many ways to go around laws and the laws are so complicated and unecessary long that most people don't know the law. This system is really bad and one of the reasons why I hate my own country. That was my rant of the day, thank you for listening and have a great evening.

Vagueness is more adaptable and makes it easier to govern, but it’s also more capable of being abused. When the law has explicit limits, it’s more difficult to have false charges levied on you, while with a vague law, a lot more things could be considered illegal.

At energi trampoline park there is a zip line that goes round corners. It goes around the the inside of the whole building.

Did you edit the seflie stick out or is there some clever wizardry going on with it?

It's likely a 360-degree action camera of sorts. For these cameras, the sticks often disappear. Either due to a blind spot in multiple lenses or image stitching.

Good lord people, the “selfie stick” has a GoPro Fusion mounted on it, a 360 camera. It disappeared because that’s where the 360 video is stitched together, in this case it’s just one side of the video is being used.

If people are wondering where the selfie stick went, it’s the clipping on Tom’s 360° GoPro Fusion camera - there’s a park bench video on the Matt and Tom channel about it

Nice subtle editing out of the selfie stick
