GalacticHero Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 What's the scariest ride you've ever been on? Not in terms of thrilling scary; I'm talking about pee your pants scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EpcotLova Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Since it was my first launched coaster, id have to say Hulk. I wasnt expecting the launch to be so powerful, and the roll up top into the dive back to earth made me yell something about doing Jesus or something. Insane, but I love it now except for the ear battering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Acrophobia...it's one of the only rides that really still scares me everytime I ride it. Elissa "although the new seats make it a bit tamer" Alvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Shankman Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Acrophobia. I'm up to 512 rides on it, but it still...even today, makes me uneasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cid Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I still get scared on drop towers, but add me to the Acro count. Seeing the bottom of the tower while your up there makes it way scarier than the other drop towers. The helplessness when your feet leave the ground too. Power Tower drop makes me uneasy when I'm on the inside of the towers. I don't like being able to see the other towers because it puts everything in perspective.

Angry_Gumball Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Thrillshot was scary at first but very thrilling. I rode it the year it opened and did 2 rides on it. Sky coasters were also creepy being as I wasn't sure if my cousin (Squirmy Wormy) was gonna pull the right thing or not.She get's things backwards often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaparri Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Acro- there is something about that ride. It is quite possibly the scariest thrill ride I've been on. Something about having the whole lower half of your body dangling and being tilted toward the ground just freaks me out. Drop Zone (PKI)- The height is just terrifying. Freefalls scare the crap outta me. Tall skycoasters- Right when you pull the cord and you take that initial nose dive before the slack in the rope ends...yeah, so scary. Flight of Fear- Ever since they removed the OTSRs, I feel so vulnerable. The supports just feel so close in the dim light. The first time I rode it with the lap bars, I was ducking toward my best friend and clutching him in terror. It was probably quite the moment because he gets pretty scared on any coaster and here is the seasoned rider gripping him for dear life. Those are the rides that consistently scrare me to death.

Angry_Gumball Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I must add Drop Zone @ PGA as I could have experienced true freefall, unrestrained if my friend didn't tell the ride ops we weren't secured...As for sky coasters, that initial drop when there's slack in the cable makes it scary being as you fall straight down, head first and suddenly jerked by the cable as slack lets out.

viking86 Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I thought the backwards lift on Stunt Fall @ WBMW Madrid was pretty damn scary the first time. It was my first shuttle coaster, and it just went steeper and steeper. But the rest of the ride was just fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugged One Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I would have to say both Acro and Deja Vue on my first trip to SFOG. Acro was only the second drop ride that I had ever been on and I almost backed out of doing it. Of course the anticipation was a lot worse than the actual drop. And then the first time I was pulled up the spike on Deja Vue, I about crapped myself. I had only just ridden my first coaster three months before and up to that point the most thrilling thing I had ever been on was a B&M invert. This was totally a different beast. Totally made the 1 1/2 hours I waited for it worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stitch Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I must say the Pepsi Python at Coney Island (Cincy) scared me pretty bad because it is so shotty, extremely rough and the lap bars barely work. That ride throws you around all sorts of ways, not fun. I personally don't get scared on coasters/thrill rides because I know that I am very safe on them but I must say Drop Zone (Pki) gets me ancey but I love it and Greezed Lightnin' (Sfkk) freaks me somethin major when you go in the loop backwards because you get this odd little hang time lol.

JT3000 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Fearfall at IOA. It's the only space shot I'll even ride. It's actually the only ride that scares me that I still ride on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J man Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 I think X is the scariest ride I've ever been on. I've ridden it twice and I still have no idea what happens on it! I remeber falling toward the ground and flipping around a whole bunch of times then I'm back in the station. But when you are going over the drop facing the ground that's the scariest/ best part, mainly because it's the only part I can remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterCrazy Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Acrophobia, its one of the few rides that still scares me every time I ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janus Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 There's nothing like a good SCAD tower.. Even on my fourth dive, I kept wanting to back out on the way up. I'm not a screamer, but about half way down that fourth time I couldn't hold it in. You can't see where you're going, and it doesn't slow down near the bottom like most drop rides, you're accelerating ALL the way to the net.

CoasterFanatic Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Any Intamin tower will pretty much do it for me. So far, the best is at Kings Dominion (Haven't rode Acro yet) The first time you ride X, the little dip at the top made me feel a little weird. You don't know when the drop is coming. Looking down the first drop of Son of Beast. You know the pain that is inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Fan Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 No coaster/flat/upcharge has ever made me scared... A few made me uneasy.. But I still didnt hold on or anything lame... First time ever on MF.. in the frontseat going up the lift.. it was like "so..tall..." But once I got to the top it was nothing.. Getting loaded into a SlingShot. and looking up at the towers 300 feet up for the firts time.. uneasy.. still hands free... DropZone PKI first time... going up i was a bit ":-\" but once it stopped going up I had my arms and legs out.. Coasters and Rides are fun... not scarey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Yankee Guy Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 hmmmmm, I dunno what ride scared me the most. Probably my first time on Skycoaster. But after that I don't get scared much when it comes to rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Six Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 No coaster scares me. The only actual ride that still gives me a good scared feeling is Supreme Scream. Michael "I hate going up so slowly!" Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpengeistdude321 Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Xcelerator for the first time. I didn't know there would be so much airtime on the drop. :shock: Made me hold on for me life the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
