How are you at thrill rides? Can you bear the mind-boggling excitement it brings?As for me, my stomach can't bear it anymore and my fear of heights prevent me from trying these rides. I did once tried the roller coaster. And I almost fainted from sheer fright.

It is very dangerous to have thrill rides at the carnival. Days ago I saw from TV that some people got very hurt when it fell down all of a sudden. I can never try it for safety.

Yeah, it is really very adventurous. But I do hope that the organizers will make this game safer.

That's the scary and dangerous part of thrill rides. Accidents are bound to happen one way or another. But we can't blame people who try them. It is fun and exhilirating. But for people like us, we're much content to just sit down and watch them scream!

I never dare to try even once for a roller coaster. I am afraid of height. When I stand at very tall building and start to look downward, I feel my heart up to my mouth. I am so scared. Therefore I won't try anything that makes me feel uncomfortable. lol

When I was a kid, I tried those thrill rides. I still had the courage to do it. I'm also afraid of heights. I can't even bear to look down from the 3rd floor of a building. Heights make me a little dizzy and looking down makes me feel as if I'm surely going to fall.

When I was young, I used to turn round and round for fun with my playmates. I felt so dizzy and would eventually fell to the ground after many turns. It was funny when thinking of those old happy days.

OMG I LOVE going to amusement parks and riding the rides, they are soooo much fun. my mom and I have been going since I was big enough to be able to get on. they are always scarey and then after its done I just want to get right back on and do it again! lol I went to Cedar Point a few years ago my first time going in quite a while. I have to say though, its not the same as when I was younger, I freak out a whole lot more now..lol

Hey I envy you!I don't know why but I just can't get over my fear in trying those thrill rides again. The last time that I did was years ago with my brother. He dared me to go with him on the roller coaster. The moment that the seatbelts were put on, I wanted to tell the operator to let me come down.LOL. I think I never prayed so hard as I did that time.^_^

I understand how you feel. Whenever my family goes to Star City, I somehow envy those screaming people in the roller coaster ride. But I know I'll only be able to go through the ticket operator, then I'll pass out.LOL. After watching Final Destination 3 which featured a freak accident involving a roller coaster ride, what little bravery I have left completely evaporated.

I hate thrill rides! I am afraid actually. I tried riding rollercoaster once. Well, it was the first and the last time I done it. I vomited and got a headache. I hate the idea of being up there while people under me looked like ants. I rather stroll around. eat and play those kiddie games. lol

I understand how you feel.^_^ I tried the rollercoaster once too, and never tried it again. My knees were shaking and it was a good thing I didn't faint from too much fright!lol I guess for us who doesn't just have the stomach for these things, strolling is the best part. Like you, I'd rather walk around and simply enjoy the view, especially those who does ride the rollercoaster and scream so much.
