....a new ride for L & L going to Perth...should be interesting?
...apparently you get into a coffin simulator and ged buried ,hence the title 'Buried Alive'!....sounds incredible ...everyone out the front watches you 'die' on video screens...this is a new twist to what you see at the shows .....who agrees??????

OMG anyone who has read any of our fears, eg spiders, ferris wheels and for me enclosed spaces, this is my ultimate nightmare, just the thought of it "creeps" me out, I am breaking into a sweat just thinking about it. I actually do not think I can watch this even. Ok Hurricane you can mock me as much as you like. :shock: :?

Oh and welcome creeper, (I think) Not sure I like the idea of the "watching you die" comment.

I'm not too sure whether this idea will take off. It doesn't sound like too much fun to me.

Interesting concept - a weird enough experience that people may actually open their wallets to give it a go. (can't imagine you'd get many repeat riders)

I can see people going on this as a dare, can you imagine, with all you mates, seeing who can handle it, the ultimate dare.

Personally I reckon the idea is dumb dumb dumb and probably controversial as well. that alone may get some riders I suppose. Carnivals are meant to be happy places in my oppinion, a place to escape the outside world and have fun. I'll get off my soap box now! :)

I think it is a very good idea, how many people want that extra bit of a scare when they go on a ghost train, When they come out of the truck here i will gladly test em. If i'm gonna die (which I nearly did) i might as wel know what its like getting buried. Also there is not only buried alive L and L Osborne have brought some very spectacular things, some that are very rare.

Cheers OZshowkid

Now that I think about it, I'd give it a try. What are you saying Oz, Lew has brought some new equipment with that and some other new things or machines he has bought in the past?

I looked it up on their uniform actually when I was at Sydney Show....it is www.amusementrides.com.au
I don't think that it has any of the new stuff they have bought...I would say it has not been upgraded for a while!...still they have plenty to offer...cheers

Apparently these are going well in America and have been in the news a lot....even on foxtel on would you believe...girls of the playboy mansion!!!
It is supposed to be a lot of fun and lighthearted not morbid ....I still can't wait to get my girlfriend on it ! I reckon I would enjoy watching Princess's face while she is inside it....

Whats this pick on Princess day, Creep, you wont have to enjoy seeing my face on it, cause it aint happening, ever in this life time, or the next for that matter. :evil: :shock: :?

I am even going to make sure I get a brain wave test to make sure I am dead, before they put me in anything that resembles a coffin.. :lol: :lol:
