Tom Eck’s Globe Ride A Thrilling Coney Island Act
New York reports a spectacular act by Tom Eck featuring a giant glass globe with a rider inside. The rider starts at the bottom, the globe spins and climbs to headfirst then flips, looping the loop at high speed while a photographer or assistant performs synchronized stunts nearby. A female performer joins mid ride, rotating in opposite directions before swapping paths. Stunts last about ten minutes with two trained performers, Arthur H. Stone and Dietson Fintenite Brockway, both noted trick artists. The globe is set to be shown at Coney Island with safety measures in place.
