The UFO
The UFO is a fairground ride at Flamingo Land.
It spins round very quickly on an axle which pushes you back against the carriage and you can't move. The central arm lifts up, which means that you go upside-down.
There are twelve main spokes. Each one has a carriage on the end of it. There triangles between the spokes to make it stronger.
It looks a bit like a UFO but it reminds us more of a bicycle wheel.
