Surprisingly, there are several breeds of cattle where both sexes have horns. Have a great day, Jacob ❤️
I agree there are breeds of cow that both sexes have horns I have seen many of them. And some bread have been bred to have no horns at all
When I was a wee little lad this was the post office my mother would pick up her food stamps. She was never a fan a working. I remember how beautiful it was and was so glad someone saved it and created the Museum.
Dude. I’m born and raised in sandusky and you visited that hell hole! Holy shit!!! 🫡
Jacob, according to Merriam Webster Dictionarys.
The word Carousel is actually a synonym of the word Merry-go-Round, so theres officially No difference between the two funfair rides !
Both mean the same thing, every Carousel can be described as a Merry-go-Round, and vice versa.
Your favorite words are "HERE & THERE." Love it!
I got say Jacob, I absolutely love how everytime you come across a Camel, real or not, you always revisit the HORRIBLE experience with the one that bit you. It just makes me smile. Sorry, but I find it funny now.
EUCLID BEACH PARK is a nationally known amusement park covering ninety acres of lakefront property on the northeast side of Cleveland, Ohio. It has been owned and managed by the Humphrey family since 1901. This family was composed of three brothers, a sister, and the wife and children of one of the brothers.
Jacob has a rare talent of speaking and giving commentary that is informative, interesting and engaging. Never boring! God bless the Carpetbagger!
My late father in law would talk about taking his kids to Euclid Beach Park and how much they enjoyed it. Sadly, it's been gone for a long time now
There is a place in Wichita Kansas that refurbishes carousel horses I have a friend that works there I might be able to get you in the door. For a tour they take them all the way down to the wood and repaint them some are fiberglass so are not somewhere.
Hey Jacob, I think you're correct!! A carousel is more general - referring to anything that goes in a circle. Like a baggage carousel at an airport. Merry-go-rounds are specifically attractions that can be ridden for fun or leisure (so no matter what animals are featured, real or imaginary, they'll qualify. Or there can be no animals present like Disney's Carousel of Progress. It's a theme park attraction ergo it's for leisure. So, a carousel for leisure.😉 I think that's settled.😊
Or in other words, every merry go round is a carousel, but not every carousel is a merry go round
Both male and female cows, known as bulls and cows respectively, can have horns in certain breeds. These breeds are referred to as "polled" or "horned" breeds. Examples of polled breeds include Angus, Hereford, and Shorthorn. These breeds have been selectively bred to be naturally hornless, and both males and females typically lack horns 👀
I love carousel/ merry-go-round animals. Especially, the ornate horses. Thanks for the great tour of the Merry-go-round museum.
thank you - I'm in germany and you show me the things I will never be able to see in person -
Love merry go rounds Thankyou Jacob for showing me love ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ your the best I get to see so much through your eyes ❤️
The similarities between a carousel 🎠 and a merry go round is that they gives us joy
Euclid Beach amusement park was closed in 1969, however there a few ruins left, and the park where it was is open to the public. Might be worth an exploration. Just a thought.🤔
Those rides at parks are called Merry Go Rounds so that complicates things 😆
Merry-go-round and carousel are synonyms (words that mean the same thing). Some people say that the difference between them is that they turn in different directions. Others say that one has all sorts of animals while the other only has horses. Whatever the reason, merry-go-rounds in Europe tend to turn
Jacob, the Merry-Go-Round from Euclid Beach Park has been restored, and is in Cleveland Ohio in the Western reserve historical society near the Cleveland art museum. They did a wonderful job of restoring the Merry-Go-Round from Euclid Beach Park in Mansfield Ohio where there is a carousel restoration museum. There is also an antique carousel in Mansfield Ohio. There is a group called The Euclid Beach nuts they gather and have parts of the Euclid Beach Park to display. Euclid Beach Park closed in 1969 I last rode the Euclid Beach at Euclid Beach when I was eight. I didn't get to ride it again until 43 years later when I was 51. It is a beautiful carousel with traditional large horses
I moved to Sandusky about 3 years ago, just a couple blocks from there. The Merry Go Round Museum was one of the first things that struck me when I moved here, and I finally decided to visit it about a year ago and I learned so much about not only the making of the mounts but also about the history of Sandusky. It's a very special city and I love living here very much.
The building reminds me of the museum-go-round Lady Elaine Fairchilde operates in Mr Rogers neighborhood of make believe
I thought the same thing!
Carousel builders: We refuse to put a saddle on a zebra, because they are wild animals!
Also Carousel builders: (Put a saddle on a lion)
Hi 👋 carpetbagger 😊 good morning 🌞 thanks for sharing. You have fun.✌️🤓 Love museum like this.
I worked at the park and tried to knock out both the Maritime Museum and the Merry-Go-Round Museum, but was closed for the day unexpectedly, so I had to wait till I had a day off the lined up with the hours. Downtown Sandusky is really nice. Outter Sandusky is Suburban hell. If they buses ran to mee the Amtrak trains. Although where the train station is where most of the residential is-and its only 30mins walk to downtown, so it could be worse
Merry Go Rounds have multi animals. Carousel has only horses from what I've been told.
When it comes to the main differences between carousels and merry-go-rounds. The carousel has decorative figures you can sit on. When it comes to a merry-go-round that is something that is found at a playground for children to sit on and spin around on
I cant remember the name but the red white and blue themed white horse you see throughout the museum is the lead horse on their merry go round. Every carrousell or merry go round had a lead horse. ...like Cinderella's horse at DW .....nice place , havent been there for years...there is a ferry near there (same block) that will take you out in the bay and over to cedar point. Fun little side excursion.
Thank you for going here. I’ve heard lots about this place but I’ve never been…
Thank you so much for the tour!🤗 Fascinating! I know for a fact that: longhorn and highland cattle breed COWS have horns and will use them! BTW: merry-go-rounds in Europe rotate clockwise.👍🏻
You went! I had suggested this in your Cedar Point video.
Okay Okay you have taken me to some wonderful and weird places... and i loved them all thank you for this one i really enjoyed it.....
That was awesome 🌟 I adore Carousels , and Merry Go Rounds ❣️🎠 Always my favorite ride 😻♾️🤩 As always, Thank You Jacob 🙏💝😻
This is a really great museum. The building is the old Post Office.
Cows do in fact have horns. My family has several horned cows :)
Thank you Jacob for giving me a place to go where I just need to just relax and see your various adventures-thanks for letting us all tag along. Educational and fascinating, your videos are never dull :)
In the Netherlands, the Music Express carnaval ride is called The Caterpillar (because of the cover) and they often have a large woolly tassle you can grab. Someone pulls it up and lowers it so it swings around and it is quite hard. But fun!
In Dutch, we call a carrousel a "turn mill" (draaimolen).
The Glen Echo carousel near Wash DC has an opera table ring machine. They do use it on some occasions.
all cattle, no matter the sex, have the ability to grow horns! farmers/ranchers often remove them when the cattle is still a baby. however, if cattle are born naturally hornless, polled, it can be like bred into a herd to produce naturally hornless cattle😊
What a marvelous Museum. Loved the Carousel as a child where we vacationed each year. The animals are so beautiful . The work that goes into them amazing. Thanks for giving us a tour Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤
You've asked this so many times. u were bound to go here, Jacob. Great episode
A really great merry go round museum video, Jacob! 👍👍👍👍
Logansport Indiana has a “catch the ring” carrousel!
Peru indiana has Circus hall of fame and museum, you would love it!
Extra info for you The human hippocampus is named as such because it looks like a seahorse
I'm in the UK the old carousels here are very ornate and the horses had real horsehair manes and tails.I remember riding them as a child.Some were steam driven with big drive belts turning them round and wonderful steam organs.
Check out Golden Gallopers,Vitorian rides
According to Merriam Webster dictionaries, the word Carousel is actually a synonym of the word Merry-go-Round, so there's officially no difference between the two funfair rides! Both mean the same thing; every carousel can be described as a merry-go-round, and vice versa.
While European Carousel rides typically turn clockwise, their American counterparts usually spin counter-clockwise. This is because European Carousels were originally intended for cavalry practice - check out the history of the Carousel for more information. Warriors would mount their Merry-go-Round horse from the left, so they could draw their sword from the left holster and hold it in their right hand, If the Carousel didn't spin clockwise, the warriors would be facing backwards!
The Hipocampus looks like a dog in the front. Beautiful work on those animals. Fast ride😂
I love the designs on those Merry-go-Round/Carousel animals. Some of them look ornate and antique, but a great museum to stop to. Have a great day Jacob!
I enjoyed your comments and narration and how happy you were riding the merry go round! The hard work and sheer craftsmanship that goes into one is amazing. Awesome video!
If u really want to know merry go round moves quicker than a carousel. I got a run both in my teens and merry go round has dragons and etc on it. Carousel has really pretty horses
They are the same thing
Difference between a merry-go-round and a carousel? Jacob, we could go around and around about this subject! 🤦♂️
I learned so much today about Merry Go Rounds and Carousels! Thank you for a wonderful video!💗
I just found out that Anoka MN claims to be the Halloween capital of the world.
Thank you for the great stories and videos.
Euclid beach park we went there as kids.. They had the rocket ride that go over the water. Lake Erie.
Oooo I really like the carousel models, it's soooo pretty!
I asked the Great Goog about it and it states: According to Merriam Webster Dictionaries, the word Carousel is actually a synonym of the word Merry-Go-Round, so there's no difference between the two funfair rides! Both mean the same thing; every carousel can be described as a merry-go-round, and vice versa. This leaves me feeling dizzy😄
There is one in Kansas to Carousel Museum I believe is the name of it
My grandma would love this place
Hi! There is a ring machine at the Eldridge Park Carousel in Elmira, NY. I believe that the National Carousel Association uses carousel and merry go round interchangeably.
Thank you for this video! I lived all my life in Ohio. Just recently retired to Florida. Never been to Sandusky or Cedar Point. I have been to Put N Bay. I grew up closer to Kings Island. That was always our go to Amusement Park. Safe travels, good to see you back in Ohio 😊
Good Afternoon Jacob 🙋🏽. I hope you have fun and be safe out there ‼️👍🏽😃
A couple of months ago I was at an amusement park called Huis Ten Bosch in Japan, and they had a three-story carousel.
This collection of carousel animals is awesome!! The craftsmanship is beautiful. Love carousels!!! Awesome video 🥰
I'd be LMAO is you were screaming the whole time while riding the Merry-Go-Round
Merry-go-rounds typically have a platform in the center for riders to stand on, while carousels have seats for riders to sit in. Merry-go-rounds also typically have only one row of animals, while carousels have multiple rows of animals. Finally, merry-go-rounds spin around clockwise, while carousels spin around counterclockwise.
21:12 Euclid Beach was an old amusement park that operated east of Cleveland, OH, actually East Cleveland area. It was opened from 1895 to 1969. By the 1960s, Euclid Beach was facing strong competition from Cedar Park in Sandusky and was facing financial issues causing the park to close and go bankrupt, plus they had trouble replacing their aging theme park rides.
Amazing. Think of all the artists and carvers who worked on all the horses (and other creatures) and all the thousands of people through decades that rode them. We had two or three old carousels in parks nearby ..two of which are now closed, dismantled and gone. (I know the other is still going strong but not certain about their carousel horses-if they were replaced) It makes me sad I can no longer ride on my particular favorite or take my children to experience it. They were works of art you could ride. I thought they would be around forever. Seems now a days the new replacements are silly, garish or cheaply made. I really hope none of those from closed parks were destroyed. It would be a travesty.
Cool place and awesome video. Thanks so much!
I've ridden the brass ring merry-go-round in Martha's Vineyard! It's very fun but I do understand the safety concern, it is a tiny bit scary 😂
Enjoyed replay thanks for sharing your channel with us 😀 😊 👍🏼 ☺️ ❤❤❤
I drive by this on a near daily basis. Very cool to actually see whats inside!
GreenField Village in Dearborn has a dog on there Carousel!
You found a rare carousel that has a hippocampus. These are usually frightening to children and they don’t like to ride these. This would be a manergerie carousel since it has other animals besides horses. The Frati carousel organs front has nude woman’s breasts.
Dairy cows are born able to grow horns. Most North American dairy farmers dehorn to prevent injuries to the cow, her herd, or snagging. Thank you for taking us on the adventure!
Theres a great museum just like this one called the 'New England Carousel Museum' in Bristol, CT. You must check it out! A Carousel is a ride that features a motor and horses, a merry-go-round is a ride that features no motor, and no horses.
In your last carousel video you mentioned wanting to know about other carousels to visit. Do know about the Albany Historic Carousel and Museum in Oregon? It has a menagerie of unusual animals and a museum and workshop where you can see vintage carousel animals and watch new ones getting carved. Some of the animals were designed by Star Wars creature designer Terry Whitlatch, and they’re all carved by volunteers. As a bonus, it’s only a half hour drive from the Enchanted Forest, and an hour from Portland’s haunted house themed bar, Raven’s Manor.
Hi Jacob I just love a nice carousel I think its a ride for all generations.. We have a couple of large steam fair this summer and everything will of course been powered by steam engines including this Carousel.. I will be having several goes on them.. XX
great video CB ,we had one at our mall here in tracy ca built in 1994 and in 2015 they sold it probably because the mall is failing but what a tragedy ,it was just like the one you rode there , totally unique and now gone forever
When he said he got bit by the camel I cried all over man 😂
f this has two thumbs up, I'd give this vlog that. Carousels or merry-go-rounds are my fav amusement and I would always ride a horse. I would love to have a carousel horse in my home.
love carousels beautiful museum thank you jacob
Very fascinating video! I will definitely visit this summer on my next trip to Cedar Point. Believe it or not I never knew this existed until I saw your tour! Thank you!
Hello from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park 🌄🏞️
Has Jacob ever been on the old carousel at Greenfield Villsge? I can't remember. I know he has been to the Henry Ford Museum (it's right next door) a bunch of times. Great video as usual Jake
Remember the other camel looked friendly to. Lol
You’d think by now, that Ohio would be a state that would make your head spin !
A few things:
- The "hippocampus" figures on this carousel would usually be called sea dragons by most carousel enthusiasts. There are hippocampus carousel figures, but they have the front end of a horse with the tail of a fish. Sea dragons' heads are more dog-like and their front feet are paws.
- The horse with the "dead dog" is actually wearing a wolf pelt saddle. Animal pelt saddles were a common theme with some manufacturers, especially the Philadelphia Toboggan Co. (PTC).
- Yes, that creature behind the saddle is a Billiken. Those impish creatures were a fad in the early 20th century and were featured on many things from that era. This one was made by the C.W. Parker factory, which made a few like that.
- 'Carousel' and 'merry-go-round' mean the same thing. Opinions vary greatly on this, but according to most dictionaries as well as the National Carousel Association, the terms are interchangeable.
Imagine a carousel but with cryptids. Which would Jacob ride?
12:22 in some places you can buy little books to put your pressed pennies in
The difference between carousel and merry go round is the same as the difference between pop, soda, and coke. There is no difference. Just what they decide to call it.
When I was around 10 yrs old in 1963 I remember Euclid Beach Park an saw laughing Sal she really freaked me out 😮
Brian from Northeast Ohio 👍👍👍👍
Love the video. That is a sea dragon, not a hippocampus. A hippocampus has hooves on the front legs and no horns. There are quite a few sea dragons that were done though. Also, it looks like all of the animals on that carousel are Herschell animals. The cow looked like a Bayol, which was a French carver. The Centaur is British as was the peacock. The Looff carousel in Spokane also has a brass ring machine. I like the horses, but the menagerie animals are my favorite.
Um... I don't have a PhD in anatomy, but I thought the hippocampus was a part of the brain. 🤔
Yep, I said the same thing. They are sea dragons. As for the figures on the carousel, they aren't all Herschell. There are some Parkers, I saw a Dentzel pony on the outer row, and some contemporary and various other figures as well.
@@BennyLlama39 'hippocampus' means sea horse. It refers both to real sea horses, and to the mythical half-horse half-fish. And it is the name for the part of the brain that is shaped like a real-world sea horse. So yes.
Looks great 😊
Yep cows have horns my good man
So much fun🎠🎠
I saw a guy pass out and fall onto the baggage carousel at the airport. He’s slowly coming around.
😂😂😂 whaaaat
WAS IT 🎉MR BEAN 😂😂😂
Apparently, according to Merriam Webster dictionaries, the word Carousel is actually a synonym of the word Merry-go-Round, so there's officially no difference.
I just read that dairy cows do have horns but the farmers have to dehorn them.. 😢 apparently its a danger for the farmers for them to have the horns.
This is going to sound nuts, but if you want to never lose those crushed pennies again, just tape the crushed penny to your toothbrush. You are never without your toothbrush, and therefore would never be without your crushed penny.
7:10 it still has the Space Spiral-that was removed like 10 years ago, maybe next year would be a good time to update it?
