In the area, Japanese say that if you ride this ferris wheel with your significant other, you’ll break up.
Be careful.

Funnily enough I rode this with a girl I’d been dating for a while. We broke up a few days later.
It wasn’t until the next week that my friends told me about this rumor :(

Joshua, don’t do it.

Wow Tres… Geesh.
It’s uh… cool that uh… the rumor is uh… true?
Sorry that it ended up messing up your relationship though!
Let’s dismantle the ferris wheel!

Maybe it’s the rumor rather than the ride doing the damage. If a guy took me for a spin on a world-reknowned (now that Harvey has blogged about it) Wheel of Doomed Relationships, I’d assume he wanted to break up with me, so I’d dump *him* ASAP.

I rode this ferris wheel in September 2006 with my gf. Now, we are married for almost one year. It seems, that my gf and me are immune against this rumor ;)
