Abstract

Funfair rides (10) on which the passenger reception (17) is assigned to the end of a cantilever arm (14) which can move about a horizontal axis of rotation (13) are known. The movement of the passenger reception corresponds substantially to that of the circular path of the cantilever, so that only very limited impressions of movement can be conveyed. According to the invention, it is provided that the passenger reception (17) is able to move on at least one further circular path in the region of the end of the cantilever arm (14). In this case, the passengers are moved on a cycloidal path.
