Yiya phezulu eChicago, Seattle, Las Vegas, kunye nezinye izixeko ezinamavili aseFerris
NgoJuni 21, 1893, isondo lokuqala likaFerris, elibizwa ngokuba ngumyili walo uGeorge Washington Gale Ferris, Jr., laqala kwiNgqungquthela yehlabathi kwiColombia. Ibheno elikhulu kunazo zonke kwi-Fair's World, i-264-foot-long observation wheel yayiphendula iMicrosoft e-Paris Eiffel Tower, eyayibukrakra kwi-Fair World eminyakeni emine ngaphambili.
Isondo likaHerris elibhekiselele e Chicago ukusuka ngo-1895 ukuya ku-1903. Lichithwa ngowe-1904 waza wathunyelwa eSt. Louis, apho lahlulwa ukususela ngo-Ephreli ukuya kuDisemba waloo nyaka njengenxalenye yesiXeko seMhlaba.
Nangona isondo lokuqala laseFerris lachithwa ngowe-1906, iivili ezikubonayo ziye zatsaliswa ngokuqhelekileyo kwinqanaba elidlulileyo. Kwimbali yakutshanje, nangona kunjalo, iivili zikaFerris ziye zenziwa zizinto eziqhelekileyo kwii-skylines zedolophu. ILondon yaqalisa umendo ngeMilennium Wheel yayo, eyaziwa njengeLondon Eye , eyayiyi (xa yayakhiwa ngo-1999) isondo elide kunazo zonke zeFerris emhlabeni. Ukususela ngoko kufike isondo eliphezulu lokubuka iLas Vegas kunye nomnini werekhodi.
Ngaba zonke iivili zeFerris zanamhlanje zixhamla ixesha elilula, okanye nje umnqweno wokuphakama ngaphezu kwezitrato ukuze zibhekise phambili kweso sixeko? Kungakhathaliseki ukuba yintoni isizathu, nangoo mavili amahlanu aseFerris anika iimbono ezimangalisayo zedolophu-okanye, ubuncinane, zinika ixesha elincinci lokuzola phezu kwehlabathi elingaphantsi.
