| ARTICLES RELATED TO Tilt-A-Whirl | | | |  Tilt-A-Whirl: Encyclopedia II - Tilt-A-Whirl - HistoryHerbert Sellner, a woodworker and maker of water slides, invented the Tilt-A-Whirl in 1926, at his Faribault, Minnesota, home. Over the next year, the first 14 Tilt-A-Whirls were built in Herbert's basement and yard. In 1927, Sellner Manufacturing opened its factory in Faribault, and the ride debuted that year at the Minnesota State Fair.
The earliest Tilt-A-Whirls were constructed of wood, powered by a gas motor, and featured nine cars. Today, the ride is constructed of steel, aluminum and fiberglass, is powered by an ...

| | | | Tilt-A-Whirl: Encyclopedia II - Professional wrestling holds - Stretches An element borrowed from professional wrestling's catch wrestling origins, stretches (or submission holds) are techniques in which a wrestler holds another in a position that puts stress on their body. They are usually employed to weaken an opponent or to force them to submit, either vocally or by tapping out: slapping the mat, floor, or opponent with a free hand three times.
Many of these holds, when applied vigorously, stretch the victim's muscles or twist their joints uncomfortably, hence the name. Chokes, although not in general stress positions like the other stretches, are usually g ...

| | | | Tilt-A-Whirl: Encyclopedia II - Carnivàle - Overview At the beginning of the first episode, the carnival's manager (a dwarf named Samson) says:
"Before the beginning, after the great war between heaven and hell, God created the earth and gave dominion over it to the crafty ape he called man … And to each generation was born a creature of light and a creature of darkness...and great armies clashed by night in the ancient war between good and evil. … There was magic then, nobility, and unimaginable cruelty. … So it was, until the day that a false sun exploded over Trinity and man forever traded away wonder for reason."
This quotation offers a glimpse into t ...

| | | | Tilt-A-Whirl: Encyclopedia II - Professional wrestling holds - Pinning combinations The purpose of a pinning maneuver is to hold the victim's shoulders against the mat for a count of three (See: pin fall). The count is broken if the victim manages to raise one or both of his shoulders off of the mat, usually by kicking out.
Sometimes, a wrestler may hook the opponents tights for extra leverage. Or, if a wrestler is close enough to the ring ropes, he may aid a pin by propping his legs up on the ropes to gain additional leverage and put more of his weight on the victim. This is illegal according to the rules of ...

| | | | Tilt-A-Whirl: Encyclopedia II - Professional wrestling holds - Transition holds Some holds are meant neither to pin an opponent, nor weaken them or force them to submit, but are intended to set up the victim for another attack.
Professional wrestling holds - Arm trap.
This is when a wrestler holds both the opponent's arms under his own, from here the opponent is left prone and unable to counter or move away from the attacker. Al Snow delivers a series of headbutts from this position, while other wrestlers use this to secure a suplex.

| | | | Tilt-A-Whirl: Encyclopedia II - Carnivàle - Cancellation While ratings began agreeably, by the end of the first season they were down significantly. During the second season, the ratings slowly rose toward the end; however, the show became increasingly expensive to produce at the same time. Many fans suspected that, due to HBO's tradition of carrying shows through to an end, and Daniel Knauf's six-year-plan, the show would be renewed, but in May 2005, it was leaked that the series would not be returning for another season. HBO confirmed that t ...
