Abstract
The invention concerns an amusement device (1) with one or several passenger carriers (2) and a framework (3). It is preferably designed as dropping framework. To brake down the movable passenger carriers is provided an eddy current brake (4). It is preferably designed as linear brake. It is so designed that by influence of the different brake factors it develops basically a constant braking effect by compensating the declining drop speed.
