The “Waterboard Thrill Ride,” by Steve Powers, is a stone’s throw from Coney Island’s famed Cyclone roller coaster and Nathan’s hot dog stand. For a dollar, visitors get to look through a barred window on a Guantanamo-like interrogation, enacted by animated robots.

Lights come on and water pours into the man’s nose and mouth, producing convulsions for 15 seconds.
