A video of the 'Apollo' at Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom. The ride is very similar to the Huss 'Swing Around' but is actually a knockoff version manufactured by Soriani & Moser. The only visual difference between the two is that the Apollo has a center globe ornament while the Swing Around has none. Apollo was formerly known as 'Apollo 2000.' Song is 'Forever' by Seba.

A Huss manufactured Enterprise ride at Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom in Allentown, PA. It gives a short cycle but it's a pretty nice looking ride with orange and red cars and blue and yellow lighting. Also, I didn't use any glow or light ray effects in this video! Yay! Song is 'Reality Checkpoint' by Logistics

An on-ride/off-ride video taken in 2007 of the astrotower at the now defunct Astroland Amusement Park in Coney Island, NY. The tower stood at 270 feet and the views at the top were truly incredible. The tower still remains on site even though Astroland's rides were removed in 2008; hopefully this ride can run again someday! Song is 'Uska' by London Elektricity

An onride/pov video of the Tivoli manufactured Orbiter at the 2009 New Jersey State Fair. I used my digital camera for this video which is why the quality isn't so great; sorry about that. I'm riding with my cousin in this video and despite there being only 4 others on the ride, the "canned mic man" must have thought there was a full load.

A KMG manufactured Fireball at the 2009 State Fair Meadowlands in East Rutherford, NJ. The ride was short as heck this year, lasting maybe 1 minute. However, the ride did have a gigantic line each time I went to the fair possibly resulting in the short cycle. I believe this ride is owned by Amusements of America. Song is "Timeless" by Goldie

Morey's Piers trip report: www.domainofdeath3.com A much needed new video of the Sea Serpent at Morey's Piers in Wildwood, NJ. It's Vekoma Boomerang, the first in the US actually, built in 1984 and still going strong. Appropriately enough, the song is 'The Serpent' by Still Remains

Scat, the #3 WT Carny Ride: www.domainofdeath3.com This is a Venture manufactured Scat at the Feast of Mount Carmel Festival in Berkeley Heights, NJ. The show that owns it (Ace Amusements? I'm not sure) did a nice job with the lights to make this awesomely 70s ride look a bit more modern. Song is 'Voyager' by Makoto & T-AK

Check out the Morey's Piers trip report: www.domainofdeath3.com Nearly the entire cycle of Morey's Piers' Bertazzon manufactured Musik Express in Wildwood, NJ. It's run pretty fast, has nice lighting and uses a siren (but no strobe lights.) The total cycle, at least the one I filmed, was about 4:30 in length.

An on-ride/pov + photos video of the Funtime manufactured Sky Flyer at the 2009 New Jersey State Fair. It's a pretty fun ride and went suprisingly fast! Sorry for the video quality, I was using my digital camera to take the video. The ride is owned by Reithoffer Shows.

A shortened video of the 2009 Feast of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel fireworks in Berkeley Heights, NJ. The entire show lasted about 45-50 minutes; I only taped 25 minutes though. **Sorry that I have a utility pole in the shot; it's tough finding an unobstructed spot around there! If anyone knows a good place to watch these (aside from in the fair) with no obstructions please tell me!** This display has been done by Garden State Fireworks since the 1930s and is known for displaying their "multi ...
