I rode the Beast when I was 16 years old and I never rode another one. I do not like them. My daughter loves them though. What about you? Which one is your favorite and what park is it in? The Beast is in Paramount Kings Island.

rollercoaster - extreme
I don't know the name of the rollercoasters you just stated. So I'll answer your title discussion. I love rollercoasters. There's this different feeling that you feel whenever you ride one. I think it's what we called adrenalin rush. Like you're excited and at the same time nervous. You don't really know what empowers what. The worst part of the roller coaster is the start when your train or cart is beginning to go up the rail then the fun part is the part that you simply go down and scream as loud as you can.

Rollercoasters can be terrifying but the adrenalin rush that you only feel once in a while is priceless. I don't think I'll miss out the fun just because it is scary.

rollercoaster - wish i wasnt afraid to ride rollercoasters! T_T
i think i do, but i'm afraid of heights so i tend to stay away from rollercoasters because i'm afraid of them T_T ..the only time i was on a rollercoaster was when i went to disneyland in paris, was forced to ride all the rides there because we were in disneyland after all, how could i not ride them? hehe..but once i came back to my own country, my fear has clouded me again...

They always gave me second chance to ride in a roller coster but then I really can't make it becuase I'm so afraid of heights! I don'y know I guess I'll always carry this until I die w/ my bad experience riding in a roller coster when I was little.

20 years ago I would have taken the roller coaster (the old-fashioned kind- LOL), Todays coasters scare me with the speeds, sharper turns, upside down parts and loops! I rather take the more mellow carousel, thank you!:-)

The first rollercoaster I went on was "THe Grizzly" at Kings Dominion when I was about 14. My cousins, who love rollercoasters, convinced me to try it. FYI, the Grizzly is an old wooden coaster that shakes ALOT, not the best choice for a first timer. I was really skinney, too, so the bar didn't ever feel like it was locking me into my seat. I know I wasn't in any real danger of falling out (there weren't any loops) but my butt certainly left the seat during the big drops! Years later, I tried a few other coasters at Hershey Park. They weren't quite as terrifying to me, but I've decided that rollercoasters are just not for me!
