Rides that STILL scare you...

Ferris wheels and sky rides. The double ferris wheels really get me badly. White knuckles the whole time. I also get pretty freaked out when on a sky ride, the car swoops out of the station and gets tugged along to the max height. Then when the car would bump over the pole attachment places. There my sister is, enjoying herself and hating roller coasters, and I'm just taking deep breaths until we get to the next station. My family loves to tease me about these things.

The rickety roll-o-planes at carnivals scae me badly too. I'd love to try out a Zipper ride though.

The 400 foot tower at Sea World Orlando freaks me out a bit. You just feel that because it rotates so much like the Drop Zone at PKI that maybe it will somehow drop.. Without restraints.

Chiller scares me as well, but if I am getting a lot of re rides I get used to it.

Although I have only ridden it once, I can guarantee that Hypersonic XLC would make me practically crap my pants if I rode it again..

its a small world at disney world those things are freaky as feck

TOP TIME ALL FIRST DROPS
1. RAGING BULL @ SFGAM FRONT ROW WHAT A HEAD CHOPPER 2. DEMON WITH A LOOSE RESTRAINT ON THE BACK CAR.
3. X FRONT ROW LEFT SEAT WOO HOO
4. AMERICAN EAGLE FRONT ROW RED TRAIN

Skycoaster without a shadow of a doubt, had a bad experience on one, and now I am deathly afarid of them and the zipper. It just doesn't look safe.

Interesting mix of opinions here. I'm scared of heights and have zero problems on any coaster once the first drop staightens out (and I don't think even then anymore - just the anticipation while going up the lift).

Drop rides scare me, but only the really intense ones (First Gen Intamins and Drop Zone at PKI). In an enjoyable way, of course.

The rides that terrify me in a bad way: Bungee/skycoaster rides that only have a steel cable with no safety backup and Sky rides. Ferris wheels get me too.

I can only guess that the security of the safety designs on coasters and rides make me feel better.

Scream! an S&S Double Shot is the only ride @ SFNE that can still freak me out. I love that feeling! I still put my hands up for both the space shot segment and the turbo drop segment. What a rush!

That's right. Scream! is just awesome. Scares the crap out of me.

I lost my hat on Poison Ivy. How pathetic.

Thunderhawk (huss top spin w/ water effects) at WOF always scares me cause you know you're going to get drenched, but you don't know when it's coming and I hate when they lower you so your looking straight down at the cement ground with nothing keeping you from falling but your harness (certain parts of the male anatomy are being crushed as well).

The S&S turbo drops use to scare me alot,but Im over them becuase my freind who cant see without her glasses was on one with me once,and since she cant see the height she was waving her hands in the air and screaming saying come on its fun,its like ur flying,so I tryed the next ride,and it was so much fun falling with ur arms up,and all, and so im not too scare anymore,but Nitro freaks me out since all you have is that single lapbar.

I used to get scared out of my mind every time I rode Giant Drop but now it's like eh, it's not THAT tall! Other than that, I always freak out right before the double loop on Shockwave because I know the extreme pain that is about to confront me.

The Williams Grove Cyclone. I'm always scared I won't be seeing the station again. I'm sure many will agree.

I still have drop rides. I go on them I guess because the first two or three seconds of the drop I get the "OMG I'm gonna die" feeling. Then I adjust to the drop and I'm usually fine. For some reason when I rode the PittFall at KW I was freaked out all the way down.
