India's human powered ferris wheel!

A human-powered ferris wheel is a very rural phenomenon in India, in villages where electricity is unreliable or even unavailable, and it makes for a fun and inexpensive entertainment solution for kids on a day out. Can imagine - pure human grunt power is pushing the giant wheel and lifting the weight of the kids in this Uttar Pradesh village. Or would you like it to a Giant hamster wheel? Some fairs use generators or even car batteries to power ferris wheels, but the simplest and most cost-effective way to keep people entertained is to hire a couple of daredevils to climb a manual ferris wheel and dangle from its metal bars to keep it spinning. The simple installations are made up of a simple metal frame and a few open-air cages, and without a power source they look like non-functional decorations when not in use. But as soon as people climb in the cages and the fearless wallahs start working their magic, you get pretty much the same feeling as you would get from a modern ferris wheel. These zero-emissions rides may be good for the environment, but the same cannot be said about the safety of the riders and spinning wallahs. But then again, India is known for its death-defying stunts.
