I often sit on a park bench for a rest and listen to the water
cascading over the nearby weir, after I have completed one
of
my runs. This bench is of the traditional style with several
horizontal laths running along its length, between the two
supporting ends. It is therefore the perfect candidate
for
conversion to a Barbarella Massage Bench.
The name is derived from the film scene where Jane Fonda
in
Barbarella guise lies down inside an organ type device, to
receive an orgasmic massage from its rippling panels. The
park
bench version would be similar, but no less satisfying for
those
resting after a long walk. The laths would be connected via
individual cams to a motor, activated by a coin box. Once
engaged the bench would begin a wave like rippling motion,
providing the perfect respite for the tired walker to engage
in
meditative contemplation.

Barbarella remake "officially off"?

Instead, Red Sonja, back with McGowan? Don't get your gold lame panties in a bunch just yet; there's a reason they call it "development hell". [jutta, Sep 15 2008]

I'd have a go, whilst it lasts (+) |

"lathe" (ie the thing possibly driving the cams) or "lath" (for the wooden strips being driven by said cams)? |
|
| |
It would be neat if you can get Duran Duran to operate it too. |
|
| |
"Wasn't that neat, that thing I saw in the movie? Wouldn't it be neat if it were coin operated?" |
|
| |
And, //after I have completed one of my runs// - yeah, it always takes it out of you when you get the runs. My sympathies! |
|
| |
To be fair, [DrC], the device in the movie wasn't anything like a park bench.
Psst. [DrC] sp. "worried" ;-) |
|
| |
A thousand thanks to all my eager pedants re laths sp. |
|
| |
"neat" - I hate "neat" - it's a word to inspire a bout of
projectile vomit. |

sp. "ogasmatron".
There is (or used to be) something like this in the middle of a restaurant/nightclub in Amsterdam (no, not *that* part of Amsterdam!) called The Supper Club.
It looked like a cross between a car top-box, and one of the suspended-animation "coffins" from "2001: A Space Odyssey".
You could climb in, with just your head poking out, and be mechanically massaged, though I don't remember if it was coin-operated. |

I thought this would have, in additional to the traditional face opening, two more openings to accommodate her interesting shape. |
|

The only bit I remember from Barbarella is Jane Fonda in the fluffy spaceship interior at the beginning - and Duran Duran, of course. A quick search for "Barbarella" suggests the appalling propect that some complete fool is currently remaking it for release in 2009 - starring Rose McGowan, someone who I've never heard of except that she just got herself in the news for saying how much she admired the IRA. |

That SurfBench page really needs a video. I get the idea (I think), but it would be nice to see the "how". |
|
| |
I don't think the surfbench gives orgasmic massages unless your kink is rotational equilibrium, of course. |
