Does anybody else ever experience a "grey out" on a certain coaster? If you've never heard of a grey out, its when your body or something cant handle the G forces and you start to see grey. This happened to me every time I rode MF last Sunday going up into the overbanked turn. It also happened going up into the first inversion on gatekeeper. I was pretty tired that day, maybe that had something to do with it..
I get it at the exact same places. On the overbank on Millennium and the immelman on GK.
I grayed out for the first time on I305, MF had never bothered me. Later that year was the first time I was able to ride MF several times in a row. If I don't change seats/areas I will grey out after several rides. I have blacked out twice on MF and came to near the tunnel, I couldn't lift my head back up until after the first hill. That was a little scary, so now I make sure I drastically change areas if I ride several times in a row, when the exit gate is open.
The only time I've blacked out on a coaster was on i305. It was after the first drop nearing the end of that turn and after that I don't remember much. I went 'somewhere else' (I was dreaming while I was out or something) and when I woke up I was really disoriented and it took me a while to figure out where I was. Apparently I held onto my restraint the whole time but it was scary and I haven't been on since. It definitely "intimidated" me ;)
I too grey out on certain parts of MF but it goes by fairly fast.
My niece blacks out on MF and wont ride it anymore. Seems to be the only ride she has trouble with which sucks because it is one of my favorite rides
