Teufelsrad München Oktoberfest

Last week YouTube had a recommendation in its sidebar, a Teufelsrad or Devil’s Wheel at this year’s Oktoberfest -

I had never seen anything like this before. Why had I never heard of it?

A search revealed a brief story in Wiki and these ‘wheels’ have been used at Oktoberfest since 1913.

One of the links in the Wiki article led me to this Human Roulette Wheel at Steeplechase Park, Coney Island, early 1900s:

Now if I were fifty years younger and if I had consumed a stein or three, I might………… do as I’m doing now and enjoy the entertainment from behind the barriers which is also the safest way to enjoy San Fermin!
