nursemelis374 Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 I was so scared the first time I rode Mission:Space. I was so afraid I was going to get sick and embarass myself. I ended up fine, but I have NEVER been so worried. I also agree that drop towers are scary and I was pretty scared the first time I rode Xcelerator, but that launch is incredible.

smells_like_team_disney Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 I have never been on or seen anything that I will not ride EXCEPT this: I have no problem with High Roller, Big Shot, or even X-Scream, but this machine is just evil.

Ooh, I love Insanity. The first time I was freaking the f**k out but now it's one of my favorite rides EVER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 See for me, it's not the height...it's the damn tower and all of the construction horror stories about it and the maintenance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 ^^^Agreed Elissa, but the only ride that makes me nervous every single time I ride it is Top Thrill Dragster, I always know when its going to go but I always think what if something or happens or what if it doesnt move at all? I still love it though , just wish it was longer.

Wes Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Robbie"Wishes there was a "hyper rocket" that had a duration of over a minute" Yes, I just used quotes withing quotes Quotes within quotes should be a single ' .

shepp Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 See for me, it's not the height...it's the damn tower and all of the construction horror stories about it and the maintenance. OMFG, I'm headed to Las Vegas in a couple of weeks, and I'm already gearing up my guts for my first ride on Insanity. So thanks for sharing. Just hope no high winds suddenly kick up: I'm not looking forward to an hours-long ride... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurf88 Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 When I went on Gemini in Cedar Point, I was scared sh!tless on the lift hill (it was the first roller coaster I've went on that's over 100 feet). My friend had to drag me to Top Thrill Dragster, and just before the launch I was swearing and yelling in his ear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Cool Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Insanity looked scary as hell to me and when I was at Vegas there was a report of it getting stuck so yeah that put the red light on for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfmmFREAK Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 waiting in line for GOLIATH my first time made me VERY VERY nervous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCOSurfer90 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Waiting in line for KK made me REALLY nervous since my highest coaster before that was only 230...and its literally almost twice the size...and after seeing so many roll-backs because of the wind...i was pretty scared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebl Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 X at SFMM makes me nervous. When I was being locked into the car for my first ride, the attendant asked if I was OK. I must have gone pale. Now I'm still nervous on X because I don't know if the darned thing is going to hold together! Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DATman Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 TTD scared the crap outta me, same with X. Also, for my very first ride on millie, i was brave and went in the front. I was ready to pass out on the lift, it was so scary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dainty Aqua Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Given my rather limited ride experiences, I was a nervous wreck waiting in line for Fujiyama at Fujikyu Highlands, Japan for the very first time. I was breaking out in cold sweats/ sweaty palms, you get the drift. Anyway, prior to this, I have not been to any major theme parks (with the exception of Disneyland, Tokyo Disneyland/Sea & Universal Studio Japan but then again, they din exactly have these types of towering rides). And Fujiyama looks really intimidating from where I was queuing. It din helped either that I saw it used to hold the records in 1997 for being the tallest/fastest/steepest coaster then. I could still remember my first time on Fujiyama, the lift hill before the first plunge was really slow in an almost painful way & i was literally praying for my dear life (LOL). Now I am pretty immuned to this ride. I also jumped on Dodonpa when it first opened quite gamely. I heard abt TTD & Kingda Ka here on the board & though reviews arent that great, I would still love to try both rides myself when I visit US next yr. Besides Fujiyama, my 2nd most nervous moments was waiting at the top of Blue Max at Hakkeijima Sea Paradise, Yokohama, for it to drop (freefall). That sorta scared that crap out of me becos of the imposing height again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shepp Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Waiting in line for KK and TTD made me very nervous - not because of the ride, but because of the possibility the damn thing would break down just before I boarded... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RctInfinity Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Well, I was pretty nervous before riding RnR.. I took this picture myself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Drop-towers always makes me a bit nervous, and I still havent ridden anything taller than 200ft. I was also quite nervous before riding some of S&S' newest rides this summer like Slammer @ Thorpe and Sequoia Adventure @ Gardaland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonA Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Any ride that boosts you! Like Dr Doom at IOA or Xcelerator at KBF EDIT: People chatting there about X - I was in Calif in '02 but X was in its period of closed-ness, so didn't get a chance to go on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doom1001 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Acrophobia at SFOG pretty much always makes me nervous every time I ride it.Millenium Force also made me nervous going up the hill the first couple times I rode it,I had never been on a coaster that tall.
