I have never experienced riding on a roller coaster, because I'm one of those who have fear of riding it and I think I'll vomit if I ride on it. lol And I don't know if I will have the guts to ever try.

I see kids and adults enjoy this ride. How about you?

Have a happy Sunday to all!lol

Hi des,
I find it enjoyable riding on a roller coaster but there is always a possibility of danger.I see to it that the rides that i am riding are safe and the authorities from this rides are giving precautions and safety.Have a wonderful Sunday!!!!

As I see it, they really enjoy, but I'm really afraid. I think I couldn't ride.

It depends on the height of roller coaster and the number of twist. If it's low and has no twisting effect I can ride on that. But if its, like those seen in disneyland, I can no longer ride those. I'm scared riding those type of roller coaster.


myLot reputation of 96/100. djoyce71 (1624)   ranked 194 out of 35,261 in people  1 year ago

Whatever the height is. High or low, I think I can't really ride. I'm just scared specially if there's twisting. For sure, I'll get dizzy.

I'm scared to ride on it. I think I'll be thrown off to the air. I'm just not sure if it's safe. I've seen this news a year ago when a roller coaster got a problem and the people riding were stranded for hours in the coaster and some were in an up-side-down position. I'm still scared so I better not try it. Happy Mylotting!

That's one of the reasons why I am so afraid of roller coasters, the question on its safety.

YES!!! I have an extreme fear of roller coasters! I've never actually ridden on one... at least not a big scary one! I've been on smaller ones that don't go upside down or anything like that, and they've all freaked me out so much! I didn't have fun on them at all! I started hyperventilating I was so scared! I do not like roller coasters at all. I keep saying that I want to get over my fear and the only way to do that is to get on roller coasters and ride them... but then when I get close to the roller coaster I get too scared and can't go through with it.

I think, too, that I'll vomit once I ride on roller coaters. It would be so embarassing if it happens.

I absolutely LOVE roller coasters. Actually, I love just about all the rides you'd find at an amusement park. The two big exceptions are the free fall rides that drop you then curve out and stop you (they tend to look like big curved L's) and ferris wheels. The free fall ones are because I witnessed a serious malfunction on one when it was doing some test runs when I was like 13 (and in line for the ride that was about to be opened for the first time at that park). Since then I'm like "nope, screw you. I ain't getting on that thing." Ferris wheels... I know, it sounds weird. But I think it's the hanging in one place while they load different sections of the wheel. When it's in motion, I'm fine. When it's stopped, I'm in a state of near panic. No idea why. They just don't appeal to me.


myLot reputation of 96/100. djoyce71 (1624)   ranked 194 out of 35,261 in people  1 year ago

I think it's really panicking when you're up there and not in motion. I would never want to be in that situation, too.

I rode on one of those roller coasters but it was just like a short and so low but it has its down and up turns, the funny thing was that while I was on it I heard their screams, and then I didn't know that it was about to end, I heard my scream the loudest then came to a halt. I laughed at myself because it seems children were'nt actually screaming that loud it was just me. Lol. Well, it was my first. And after that I wanted for more.

Well, I like to ride on a Ferris wheels at night. Because at night its as if you don't see anything especially when it starts to go downwards, as if there's nothing in front of you half way downwards because its all black. But it also depends on the surroundings of the amusement park or the Ferris whells. And when you reach at the top you could see wonderful lights illuminating from a far.

before i also the fear to ride a roller coaster. but i overcome the fear because i tried it. it one good experience. and it's also true that no one can help you overcome your fears but yourself. it worked for me, so i guess you should also try. it's really fun too.


myLot reputation of 96/100. djoyce71 (1624)   ranked 194 out of 35,261 in people  1 year ago

Congratulations for overcoming the fear! Good for you.

I don't think I can do it. I might get dizzy.

I am not really afraid of them but there have been alot of accidents with them recently. They do make me sick to ride them anymore as I have grown older though.

I heard the reports, too, and that added to my fear.

So far, I have taken the small roller coasters, not the huge ones that has many turns and all. So I'm not sure whether I would take those rides at this age. There was once I was challenged to take a ride which shoots vertically up and then It would bounce up and down subsequently. My sis and I took it because we were going to have a chance to eat at a restaurant. We were screaming our hearts out. That was the last ride I would take on that one. I have tried other rides like large ships, that is not so bad, but still can get a little heady after that. I think these rides are for the younger ones...

I think the only ride I could enjoy is the merry-go-roundlol So girly and safe.
