Front row on Dueling Dragons is the only time I've yelped on a roller coaster. IMHO that's the best of the coasters in Orlando. Although Kwazi at Busch Grdns was pretty good ( mostly because the car feels like it's going to come off the track at any moment LOL)
Alien Encounter wins hands down! I had my wife on one side of me and a woman I didn't even know on the other side. I had both their fingernails imbedded in my arms. Wear long sleeves.
Having once been stuck in the Africa section of Small World for 45 minutes with the music going non-stop, I'd make that a qualified runner-up. Couldn't get that music (drums) out of our heads for hours.
Well, I'm the only member of our family sane enough to give <b>Dr Doom's Fearfall</b> a miss. My brother was totally traumatised - said he thought he was going to die and talked of nothing else for the next 36 hours!
hi again,
i thought that dr dooms fearfall looked the worst ride (meaning most scary) from all the guide books but i am really looking forward to the big speed rides at the water parks.
- for DH Darryl it HAS to be Journey to Atlantis in SeaWorld. He threatened to divorce me three times - and that was just the first couple of minutes on it
Have to admit it is quite a steep drop when those doors open and you go flying down into the water . . . . and then, well I won't spoil it for those wot haven't been on it yet
Because I've been the only one mad enough in our family to go on anything vaguely resembling a coaster, haven't yet been on anything that I consider scary, cos I've thought it not fair for Darryl and Katie to Q with me for 1.5 - 2 hrs each ride, so have not gone on the biggies.
However . . . Katie's got the bug this year, so hopefully we'll be doing some "better" ones.
Alien Encounter I found absolutely terrifying. There was also one bit on Spiderman that I found very scary. For coasters Kraken at Seaworld and The Hulk at IOA are both brilliant.
The most scary thing about summit plummit is where are your swimming shorts/ costume going to end up. Those of you who have done it will know what I mean!
If were talking Orlando only, I'm going with the first time I rode Alien Encounter, absolutely scared the life out of me.
But, if were going worldwide then Tonnerre de Zeus at Parc Asterix (about 60 miles north of DLP) is absolutely manic. It's an old style 'woodie' but it goes like the clappers! Well worth visiting the park just for that.
If its Orlando ,then i think Tower of Terror, Busch Gardens has some terrific coasters, but the scariest ride we've been on is in Las Vegas its the Big Shot, similar to Dr Dooms fear fall,but this ones at the top of the Stratosphere Tower.(its terrifying)......
