Jak Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I think the scariest rides are the ones that go up high and launches. Like before I got on Rita: Queen of Speed, my friends said I had gone pale ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karrat22 Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 The most scariest ride is for sure the wild mouse in Blackpool! I think I was going to die at every single curve. Never been scared on a coaster before but that took the c**p out of me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxo Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I'm actually not afraid of ferris wheels, but the swinging cars on DCA's ferris wheel absolutely scared the crap out of me. It looked like we were going to fall into the big lagoon! I've got some hilarious photos of my little brother holding on for dear life on this ride! (and he suggested that we ride it!)

martinb Posted March 12, 2006 Author Share Posted March 12, 2006 That Thrill Shot with them tiny seats looks very scary! How were you held in your seat? WILD Mouse in Blackpool is indeed one the scariest rides I've ever been on! When your in your little mouse car, if you lean back pretty hard the car, the front will lift off of the track! Then theres the lift hill of death (if your over 6ft tall), especially when another car goes over it, it lowers about 5 inches, which is alot when your head is under it! On every tight bend the car tips outwards and on every drop you lift out of your seat completely, ESPECIALLY on the last drop where the track just seems to disapear beneath you also to be REALLY scared on this you have to go with 2 people in 1 mouse car, the heavier, the faster, the scarier!!

PortugePunk Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Its gotta be Vekoma's "Tilt Coaster" I mean, I've never been on it to say for sure, but the number of times I've seen people on forums (Deep enthusiasts who claim to be fearless) saying they refuse to go on it when they would happily ride anything else in the world... Yeah I can't quite say I'd do that, either. Vekoma stuff just scares me in general, sadly. I still ride them, but with great hesitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortugePunk Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 To me, there's always just something unsettling about freefall rides. On one end of this spectrum, the Giant Drop rides are such a rush to me every time even though i know exactly how they work and how they feel. You know, LA is lacking one of these! I miss Drop Zone @ PGA. On the other side of the spectrum, even though they're smaller, the old first-gen Intamin freefall rides are just terrifying. Never sure what part of you is going to bruse or if it's even going to stop at the bottom of that big L-shapped skid-out run. Scary as hell inventions. Brilliant, though. I still get chills thinking about my first time on "The Edge" back when Marriott still owned Great America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHL-Freak Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 I'm generally not afraid of freefalls, but when they are over 200 feet, I'd definetely NOT ride it. Also, every walkthrough where are some people who stand in the dark and come out, totally fear me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel127 Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Starflyers scare the crap out of me. 200 plus in the air with nothing but a few chains holding you up. (shudders...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistedTrack Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I don't understand coasters being "scary". Logic- Scary=No fun=No Ride! I think of coasters that are "scary" as thrilling. In that case I have to go with Shockwave at PKD because it kept crushing my "happy place" haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas2 Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Well for me the most scariest ride has to be Dalton Terror at Walibi Belgium. The ride broke down when I was on and I was for about 5 minutes 78 m high in the sky waiting for the fall and I knew it was broken down... That was truely scary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oriolat Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 ^So true!! LOL I think one of the most terryfing experiences is Hurakan Condor... If you want to see some videos about this ride: http://www.pa-community.com/paginas/videos.php (I recommend you the one named 'Show todo'). Then you will realise how stunning this ride can be.

awclark Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 The Big Shot on the top of the Strasphere Tower in Las Vegas. No questions asked. Especialy since I did it in the dead of night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dementedguy Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 (I recommend you the one named 'Show todo'). Then you will realise how stunning this ride can be. All of my life, I have NEVER seen a ride presentation on this scale before. (I don't understand Spanish...so I don't know what in world the guy was talking about). Hurakan Condor looks absolutely amazing. I have never been to Spain but even if I go to Port Aventura, I am going to have second thoughts about riding it.....

runnerodb83 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 One of the scariest: Those "zipper" rides are more than scary, its like taking a 2 minute trip to hell, and I hope I never see one again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the sound Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Since about a month ago, i get freaked on pirate Ships, after the stupid ride op left us on it for 7 minutes! I felt really nautias afterwards, and nearly puked. I get scared on Galaxi's, they always look like there about to collapse, and that freaks me a bit. Which suprsies my freinds, as they love Galaxi's( ) but couldn't stand to go on anything with an inversion, or higher than 25 meter drop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollermonkey Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 The Top Fun Typhoon model, named Magic Mountain of all things, at Magic World outside of Naples, Italy (Licola, I think). The OTSR came about half way open as the train was climbing the lift hill. The coaster has an inclined loop, and I was pretty scared. It beat me up pretty bad while I was just trying to hang on! I rode it again, and the beating was just as bad with a properly functioning restraint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesissoocool Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Mine has to be x scream on the stratosphere tower.Sitting in the front sit is SCARY I was 12 when I went on it and my dad screamed like a girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suave1226 Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 For me its a tie between X-Scream and Insanity on top of the Stratosphere. How can anything else be any scarier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davisal771 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 That stupid thing scared the crap outta me and seemed incredibly deadly... Me and my friend went on expecting a nice ride but it was pure freaking CHAOS. Skycoasters are pretty scary the first time too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
