The Eiffel Tower had been a great success for the fair in Pairs in 1889, and they wanted something like that. Gee Ferris handed in drawings of a giant wheel that people could ride on. At first everyone laughed at his strange idea. But Mr. Ferris didn’t give up, and finally the idea was accepted. The ride opened in June of 1893. That first wheel had thirty six enclosed cars, each holding sixty passengers. When filled it carried 2,160 people. During that summer in Chicago one and a hal f million people rode the Ferris wheel, which was named after Ferris. Six platforms were used to pick up and drop off passengers. Each ride was two full turns of the wheel. On the first turn, it made six stops for loading. Then the second turn was a nonstop nineminute ride. Each car had five large glass windows in front and in back, giving everyone a great view of Chicago and Lake Michigan.[來源 :學科網(wǎng) ] After the fair the ride was moved to a nearby amusement park built especially to show off the wheel.
