It only works in northern Europe.   ;)

Oh my giddy Aunt... not the plane again.  Didn't that debate rage to 20 something pages...

And yeah, the Mythbusters proved that it's not possible for an unassisted human to get a swing that has flexible (rope chain etc) supports to got 360.  But it's not very hard to get a rigid 'russian' style swing to 360. 
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

All that video proved is that Northern Europe is where pop music goes to die.
I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...

And apparently to be created.  Have you not heard Ace of Base?  ;D  Thank god it died there as well.

Exactly, also they show the same rig on mythbusters (though on a smaller scale)

Word...I believe I blacked out for the later part of the show where they do in fact mention a solid/rigid configuration can go 360.

Tell me more about this airplane on a conveyor myth!   [roll] [evil] [roll]

The theory is that a treadmill will not work in a moving airplane.
