Haunted swing?

Terrorizing the teeter toddlers

Neither kids, nor teachers, nor parents, nor police, nor physics professors have been able to explain the spellbindingly spooky parametric oscillator in Firmat, Argentina. It's the latest video viralling around parapsychological websites. Bonus: A followup to last weeks post with a Halloweendish roller coaster video.

Virtual Gravity Rides

Kathika just posted 56 first-person perspective videos of some of the most popular roller coasters in America. The Voyage, the world's top-rated wooden coaster is here, along with the world's only stratacoasters: Cedar Point's 420 foot Top Thrill Dragster and Six Flags' record breaking 456 foot Kingda Ka. Coaster Force, which claims to be the largest coaster site on the net has 88 videos. If you're looking for information about any of the other hundreds of operating roller coasters in the US try the Roller Coaster DataBase. And if you want to build your own virtual coaster check out Roller Coaster Tycoon 3.

Woopie (sic) Cushion

Just in time for Halloween

Buycostumes.com is selling a "Woopie Cushion" costume, along with its corollary the "Little Trees Air Freshner" costume. The later looks licensed, and it is spelled "freshner", although the former is apparently an imitation of the venerated "whoopee cushion". Both come in adult, child, and infant (baby bunting) varieties. Other baby bunting costumes (available in grownup sizes) include Bananas, Pizza Slices, Ice Cream Cones, and Marshmallow Peeps. For the true Halloweiner there's also the classic Hot Dog (including a canine version), but the Inflatable Wrap Around Snake looks like it has possibilities. For real fright Castle Costumes has a Camilla Parker Bowles mask. For noncostumed Halloween outings check out the HauntedHouseOnline guide for finding unreal haunted houses and Shadowlands for real haunted houses.
