Phantasialand is a theme park in Bruhl, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany that is famous for its roller coasters and other rides. It draws millions of visitors from all over the world every year. One of its thrillest rides around is called Talocan, which is a Suspended Top Spin - "is a thrill ride developed by HUSS Park Attractions, and is the generic name for a series of rides from other manufacturers that follow the same principle. The ride consists of a passenger platform suspended between two counterweighted arms. The arms are turned by motors, while the platform generally only has brakes that are engaged and disengaged at various points of the ride cycle." (Top Spin definition courtesy from Wikipedia) If one is the adventurous type, fearless and not the faint of heart, then this ride will amuse him. And the park itself is one that amuses first and foremost.
