I often think i should just go on the hulk and be brave but the thought terrifies me. my dd aged 9 is desperate to go on. is there any ride anyone has gone on and wish that they had never?

I won't go on any, simulators make me sick so I have to sit with my eyes closed.
My son was 7 when he first went on the Duelling Dragons with his dad, it was the first time on a big coaster, he went through the gates and went straight back on the other side.[msnoo]
Daughter no.1 (age 12 at the time) always refused to go on coasters, her dad tricked her on going on Terror Tower, she was daft enough to do that twice. Lauren said if she could go on that then she could go on anything, and she does.[xx(]
Daughter no. 2 will go on ANYTHING even from when she was tiny.[:O]

I should not of gone on space mountain....because of my back.....I'm still glad I did.....but I was in pain for 6 months after......so maybe not that good an idea.........[msncry][msncry]
Back to the future [msncry]
Having been persuaded by our 3 lovely children that if I could do MIB then I'd love BTTF (insert sucker smiley here)
I agreed to try it, being 6'6" didn't help, and having my knees jammed against the car while it did it's thing was incredibly painfull (I have OA in both knees) Never Ever Again!!!
The only other ride I hated was .............. and please don't laugh ..................... really, please don't laugh ........................ promise?? ....................... cross your heart? ............................. OK ................... wait for it ................................... it's worth the wait .......................... honestly! .......................... it was the .............................. Flying Unicorn Kiddies Rollercoaster!
Stop laughing, you promised!!!!
I'm really not a wuss (honest!) but that has to have been the most unpleasand ride ever, it stopped and started time and again and went round at horrendous speed, a lot faster than I've ever seen it going since!, on the last lap as you come down towards the end they hit the brakes full on and we came to a very sudden stop, my knees of course got most of it and there were parents (and kids!) all asking what the hell was going on and people using what can only be describes as "inappropriate" language for a kiddies ride!.
I think this year I may risk another go on The Cat In The Hat if I'm feeling really brave![]()

i dont do "rides" cos i'm a fatty and afraid of getting shown up by the seat not being big enough for me, or the shoulder harness not fitting! but last time i let them pursuade me into going on splash mountain! well it was lovely, but the last drop my butt lifted from the seat!!!!!!!! just for a split second i thought i was coming out!!![msnoo]
when i told my lot after they all just laughed and like my Steve says "theyre meant to thrill you not kill you"!!!
cant believe i'm sitting here at 10 to 5 watching florida on sky travel!! lots about Miami which is scaring me![msnscared]

ive visions of you walking along miami beach now in a thong half naked....ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! MUM!
ok night hattie [msnembarrased]
Tower of Terror
Mummy
Duelling Dragons
or any of those that everyone else enjoys the most!
The owner of Blackpool funfair,who died recently aged about 180 ,went on ALL the new rides (great publicity for the place)so its a bit shameful.but I dont even like the kids roller coasters!
Rollercoasters are out for me...just don't like the sensation, but fine with every other type of ride. It's really a fear built up from when I was 14, and my family assure me that with all the harnesses you cannot fall out, but it's not just that, I don't see the point in me closing my eyes and clinging on for dear life, with an inaudible scream all the way round, just to get off and feel ill. Bags and belongings lady me.
The thing I dislike the most is other people telling you that you are soft or spoiling it for everyone else if you don't go on, especially when they pick on kids. I know there is an element of wanting your children to enjoy and not be scared, but I've come really close to saying something on a few occasions. I overheard one woman saying that if she has paid that much for a ticket for her child, she must go on everything...as tears streamed down her childs face[V]
