Which rides freak you out?

Try riding the raft flume ride at soak city with the right amount of weight! We alomst flipped up over the edge of the trough!! The one guy riding with us almost fell on top of my boyfriend and I almost flipped over the side.....what a blast though.

When I first rode Diamondback in May during ERT. I was pretty nervous because I was all alone in the back seat and the only other people were in the front row. It was really strange and it was my first B&M hyper and the lapbars were cool but uneasy at first. Well after the first ride I loved it and rode 6 more times that day

Dragster's launch is always a rush and the sound of the brakes lowering always makes me jump, when standing at the enterance after rain dilay.

Demon Drop always has me in higher anxiety than Power Tower. I think it's because DD has true free fall, whereas PT just moves via an admittedly fast cable system. Neither one gives me quite the amount of dread that Drop Zone at KI does. I'd say that's the only ride left that still scares me every time. It's because the brakes are truly last second on it.

I really wish coasters still freaked me out, but I don't even get so much as the "losing your stomach" feeling from them anymore.

I would say seeing Millennium Force back in 2001 for the first time in person, and in 2003 seeing Top Thrill Dragster, and watching a launch for the first time, really made me nerves. But I got over that. :)

Power Tower freaks me out!! i havent been on it but I dont like it because the day before i went to Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom, a girl my age got her feet chooped off from a falling cable on Superman Tower of Power and ever since i cant go on any dropping ride! :(

Don't be worried by that. Power Tower uses air not a cable.

^Power Tower does have a cable attached to the top and bottom of the car on all four sides.

Next time you are next to load look at the base of the tower and you will see a large pulley (about 3' in diamater) and a large cable running around it and to the bottom of the car.

Any of the thrill rides that are not coasters scare me. I cannot say if they are scary or not though, because I have not had the courage to ride them yet. :)

Sky Ride and MaXair freak me out. I love MaXair, but have to admit it gets me more nervous beforehand than the coasters.

I only do Sky Ride because our daughters love it. My wife and I have white knuckles during the whole trip, but especially when hearing the bumps while going over the support towers.

The only ride in the park that freaks me out is Demon Drop. I dont like the feeling of dropping then being thrown onto my back so quickly. I mean I will ride it but it gets to me every time. I also do not like going on Boomerang coasters. I dislike the feeling of going upside down while going backwards. That sends my whole sense of equlibrium out of whack. Good thing Cedar Point does not have one of those things there.

Going up on Demon Drop scares me, once it falls then I feel safe. Also at the maximum swing on Skyhawk, when you can feel it sway side to side.

I've rode every ride in the park at one time or another, most of the spinning rides when I was a kid, since I can't stomach them anymore. Of the rides I can ride now days, I must say the only ones that bother me seem to be drop and shot towers in general, and various other flats.

I can remember riding Power Tower on the drop side for the first time on a trip makes me nerves. But its worth it. :)

The ride down to the point is always a lot more scary than any ride at the park. I know that I am much more likely to die on the ride to/from the point than anything there.

No kidding, Ben. Sunday before last, on Rt 2 about 15 miles east of Sandusky, Ava and I saw a tornado. It was about a half mile north of us, heading east (so we were already out of danger when we spotted it). I don't know these things very well, but it wasn't very big, like an F-1. Maybe 200 feet tall, with a vortex of about 20 feet in diameter. We watched it for about a minute before it got out of view.

Later on I found out that there was a watch for waterspouts coming off the lake. Now I'm certain that's what it was.

Have you ever seen this news report about a tornado (I'm assuming water spout) from years back? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NI27jlwNk2E

When I was a kid, the only ride that freaked me out was the double ferris wheel. No idea why though. I went on all of the coasters and the giant wheel. But the double ride had me shaking every time. Don't think it would do that now but who knows.

Demon Drop used to be the ride that scared me until someone told me to count to 3 when you were in the drop position. The Power Tower drop is the ride now that still makes me nervous. First, there is the unknown as to when it will fall. Second, I used to work for a company that manufactures air cylinders and I cannot, for the life of me, figure out exactly how the system works on PT. I just hope the air cylinders at the bottom will soften the landing enough if they need to.

PT drop is the only ride I can remember that made my hands shake. I was a nervous wreck the first time I rode it and that was after having jumped out of a plane a couple of times.

Of course there are those short adrenaline rushes with TTD & Power Tower right before launch, but I wouldn't classify those as scary.

The last time I was actually scared on a ride was the Giant Wheel 5+ years ago or so (when it was still in front of MF). It was VERY windy, and it should have been closed. The little doors were slamming open and closing from the wind, and the whole wheel was just swaying. We got to the very top, and there was a mechanical problem or something, so we sat up there for 15-20 minutes, and the wheel was slowly creeping backward with the blowing. Perhaps the wind was overpowering the motor? Not sure if that's possible, but that's what we were thinking. The wind noise was extreme, and the doors slamming open and closing was nerve-racking.

The skys were turning very dark, and you could tell a bad storm was going to hit any minute. My heart was racing, and I just wanted down! I think they ended up unloading us all by running the wheel backwards. We got off before the storm hit, and they closed the ride immediately.

Once we got on the ground, it was just that warm blanket feeling. So when I want a rush, I ride the Giant Wheel on windy days. They're far too cautious these days though, and they added seatbelts to the doors. I'll never forget that ride though!
