  • @MrBklein31
    @MrBklein31 Před 3 lety +1

    This is the kind of thing I absolutely love! How hard they work, how everything packs up so small, has a specific place during transit, but turns into a whole attraction. Plus, they do it all kinds a weather both setting up and tearing down, day or night multiple times a season! It would be great to see more videos like this! Thanks!!

    Enjoying your build up funfair vlogs. More of this please !! Pull down vlogs would be good too..
    We don't realise and appreciate the work that's involved by the showmen to setting up a funfair.
    Great to see an insight to what work they do to get the fair up and running. Keep going... Love your style of filming. Thanks.

  • @georgewhite6141
    @georgewhite6141 Před 3 lety +1

    Built it up, pulled it down, minded it, loaded the cars, rubbed it down for painting and travelled with it for many years when Leonard had it, spent hours working on it!

    More of these please. The build up is easy the most fascinating part of the fairs.
    I stay up for 12 hours watching my local being built and dismantled every year

  • @Polysixchick
    @Polysixchick Před 3 lety

    Love your build-up videos, hopefully you can do more for 2021, love the Gardner diesel generator on the left, best generators ever! Those gnat things are horrible, they hatch out of the grass, they use to spawn like that when I was at high school and cling to the walls. A showman once told me: "it's better to build-up when it's raining then have the fair open when it's raining". Showmen are legends, they are acrobats (balancing and climbing on beams and ladders to build-up rides), engineers, electricians, carpenters, welders and painters and awesome lorry drivers, they don't get the credit they deserve, this video shows the skills needed to be a showman

    @TheeHitch Před 3 lety +1

    Fascinating stuff, these are classic rides in my opinion better then the double decker ones. Always imagined that the owners would actually buy them from somewhere though and they’d come with assembly instructions like Ikea furniture! Very cool 😎

    Reece is very patient and really good at teaching the young lad how things are done, he looks out for his health and safety, encourages him and jokes around. I really enjoyed watching this video, thanks for filming it... I don't know how they managed to built this without injury haha you two mucking about all the time distracting them loool nightmare. Love to come and watch one of these builds if you're ever near the north london/ essex area.

  • @LRvTv
    @LRvTv Před 2 lety

    After all the chaos of my usual CZcams viewings, I found this video incredibly relaxing, soothing and down to earth 🤗. I've been on a few of these ghost train rides in my life... But it was about 2013 when I actually dared to open my eyes whilst on board one... 😂 true story.

  • @MrBklein31

That one looks decent, unfortunately many don't! I don't envy those boys. I once asked for work at our local fair when in my teens, was sent to help build up the dodgems. Helped for the day but that was enough for me!
