Poll: Roller Coasters

[Spaghetti]

Nope. First off, I'm scared of hights. Second, I'm a pansy. I'd prefer something slower, perhaps closer to the ground. The coasters I have been on aren't really worth mentioning. And to get me on both of them required Bribery, Coercion and Blackmail. Not neccesarily in that order...

 

[Amberella]

I absolutely love them. The first line I go to is a roller coaster one when I go to an amusement park. Then I eat tons of food, then go back to roller coasters. =3

 

[Cheery Lunatic]

Loooove them. But I'm always really scared until I actually get on, and then it's a blast.

 

[sgtshock]

God no. I've had a phobia of coasters since I was a kid. You couldn't pay me enough to get me on a big one.

 

[Enigmers]

I'd like to try one now, last time I've been at an "amusement park" was when I was like eight years old, and too young and scared to ride anything that looked even remotely fast.

 

[Fathoms]

I am scared of them. There's this one in West Edmonton Mall, the local shopping mall, called the mindbender:

Yeah fuck that.

I wouldn't go on it.

But I did go on the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror in Disneyland because it reminded me of Bioshock. Damn was I glad I did. Easily one of my favourite rides.

Same goes for California Screamin'. I didn't think I'd go on it, but my dad said he would, too. So we tried it. It was very fun, and you didn't even notice the loop-de-loop.

That's what I'm most afraid of. Loops. What if it gets stuck upside down? No thanks. Oh god, no thanks. Also, I wouldn't go on a roller coaster made of wood or where you're hanging.

that one looks way fun. i'd go on that in a heartbeat.. if only i knew where this mall was located...

anyhow, OT, i love rollercoasters.

especially the loopy ones

No, I don't. Why? Because I'm a pussy Because I get vertigo. I don't really panic when I ride them; rather I just sit still and wish for it to be over.

Love 'em. I rode my first one at the age of 3 at King's Dominion in Virginia. My uncle lives about a half-hour away from it, and every year for my birthday, he'd buy me and my family tickets to go there.

My favorite of all time would have to be the Alpengeist at Busch Gardens. It's just...so...COOL!

Favorites are Top Gun at Paramount Canada's Wonderland

Im like 30 minutes away from Toronto so I go there during the summer often

I used to live in Mississauga myself so I went there every Summer until I moved to Windsor. Moral of the story: Never move to Windsor.

Raging Bull in Six Flags Great America is the shit.

So is Hades in Mt. Olympus Theme park.

 

[sneakypenguin]

Anything at cedar point is amazing, seriously puts any other park to shame. Top thrill(420 ft high 120 mph), millennium force(300 ft high), magnum, maverick(past vertical drop), and one of the best hanging coasters i've ridden in, raptor

 

[Sleekgiant]

Goliath- Six Flags over Georgia

Take that yanks
