I would ride that ride.Maybe that's not paint -- just the metal heating up under friction/stress.
It looks like they painted it to show where the stress levels are at.Worst. Carnival Ride. Ever.

Watching the video, I at first thought that the ride "failed" when one of the arms stopped and the other continued until I realized that it was designed to do that. Pretty amazing. Impressed with the engineering that went into creating such a ride! Awesome!
Could probably start a business selling vomit bags in a kiosk near that ride!

Birthday Son: I want to go on that ride, Daddy.I love roller coasters...but...exactly.I think you're all insane. I would wet myself publicly standing in line for that thing, and probably pass out before I managed to get strapped in.
Birthday Father: Me, too, Son. Me, too.

New Tesla Coil Gun.
"Though Rob has yet to fire the gun, photos show what he says are sparks from the setup, and a demo clip is on the way. While video proof is always nice, so is preserving your life. We wish Rob the best with both."
