Description

Animatronic depiction of waterboarding from Coney Island. Original caption:

In Steve Powers’s “Waterboard Thrill Ride” in Coney Island animatronic figures simulate an interrogation method used in Guantánamo; visitors view the scene through a barred window.

The dialogue bubble above sponge-bob square-pants says: "It don't Gitmo better!".

Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Coney Island waterboarding thrill ride
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	Although this was nominally a "thrill ride", it was actually an "installation" of "conceptual art" -- intended to trigger discussion. It received world-wide coverage, which I believe means it succeeded, and should be regarded as "notable". It was only installed for two months, which makes this image a non-replaceable illustration of an unique phenomenon.
