I can handle all of them but my DH went on ToT with the twins once and vowed it would be the last time. :scary: Dinosaur got me the most for some reason. I guess the flashing lights and the surprises. I still would ride it again.

Well, I have major motion sickness so there is a lot I can't take. I rode Space Mountain once, just to shut my aunt up. I prayed the whole time. lol. And I know wveryone says BTMR is tame, but I rode it once and never again. Did Body Wars, didn't make me sick, but I didn't enjoy it either. But for some reason I love Star Tours, always have, I never miss it.

Space Mountain. I'm 6'4" and the backs to the seats are very low, unlike Rock N Roller Coaster. My head gets flung all over the place on the ride and when I get off I feel like I have whip lash.

Tea Cups - DH and the kids have their own cup, and I sit by myself - make the cup not spin, and take pictures of my boys spinning around!
Haven't gotten brave enought to try TOT - I'm truly terrified of drop rides!

I can't do Mission Space. I don't get motion sickness but this one really got to me.

Happy Birthday Cat Im not a fan of Space Mountain either. I am 5'9" and feel like my heads going to get chopped off for some reason on the ride. So I always scrunch up and tense up on it. When I get off my neck is killing me! :)
No teacups, Dumbo or Aladdin for this girl. Dont like the spinning-

Dinosaur. DId it once. Nt for me. DOn't like that kind of scary. Neither did the 3 or 4YO girl infront of me. I wanted to smack her daddy for making her go. :(
Not sure if I'm capable of Matterhorn now. Wasn't at age 9. Poor mom thought I would crawl out of car. I love coasters, but that thing jumping out at me I can still rtemeber being horrified about!

I've never been a demon drop kind of person. So, I have not yet breaved ToT. The scary factor mixed in scares me. I'd likely do it if dh would go with, but that's not highly likely. Maybe I'll brave it after the marathon, though.

I confess that I've never done Rock 'n Rollercoaster because I'm afraid of how it will be. Also, we have little kids, so we'd have to go to some trouble to do it. However, I do think I'll do it sometime. I was not able to talk myself into Mission: Space either, and that one I really don't know if I'll ever get on. I hate feeling sick, and that one has some scary stories about it.
Everything else I've ridden, but I'm not a thrill-ride kind of girl. They don't bother me particularly, but I don't need to ride them either. The only one I don't care if I ever do again is Primeval Whirl. It's like it exists to make you sick, and there's not even anything cool to look at to make it worth it. What's the point?

Just use kid switch for RNR then you get a couple fast passes and then when trhe time rolls around one of you goes on and the other stays with the kids. That person comes off and then you use the kid switch you enter up the exit ramp and get right on. You come out and then your hubby uses the other fast pass to go back on again and vice versa. It works great we use it for Test track and a number of other attractions you then get to ride it atleast 2 times each very quickly.

I can't do MS. I tried it once and won't do it again. I can't handle the spinning rides. Love ToT and RnR though.

Can't do the simulator stuff. Body Wars about killed me. Tea Cups - NO WAY. HAve not tried Star Wars... and won't! I have done M:S... and once was enough, thanks! I just get too motion sick on things like that, and who wants to spend vacation feeling all green and yuckee? :blech:
I once went on e-ride night with my teenage nieces (note: after being at MK all day toting around a 5yr old in the August heat, then eating a big salad and drinking a beer or 2 for dinner). They had me riding everything with the word "mountain" in it at least 2-3 times in a row, then topped it off with Astro Orbiter... Ewwwwww. By that time, being in Buzz LIghtyear was the last straw ... all those blinky lights... the neon green. Ugh. Not good.
DH, for all his thrill lovin', can NOT handle the 360 movies. He nearly keeled over in Canada. Kinda funny, when you think about him riding RNRC and TOT and anything else like that over and over again with glee... yet he gets dizzy and loses all reason at the hint of Canadian mounties in sense-around.
Weird.

I did MS once and I was shall we say in slow motion for about 1 hour afterwards whilst recovering
The first part of Soarin got me a little wiggly but I managed to settle down as Timon would say
I have not tried Summit Plummet yet - some day I will (I think)
Tried Dinosaur - can't say I was a huge fan - DW loves this one and loves MS as well - I like RNR (she is not a fan)

I use my shoulders and legs to try and elevate my back and butt off the slide it also helps you go faster LOL. It also helps to eliminate some of the power wedgie you get from it LOL.

You mean the mega wedgie ride? No thanks. We did it just because dh's sisters had done it. Don't care to do again.

For me it is definately IASM... just walking by makes me my stomach twist up in knots....! :hammer:
Oh... another one is Stitch's Great Escape. That chili dog smell... made me nauseous for the rest of the day.

Tea cups. DH insisted I ride them one year and I was literally sick the entire rest of the day. That is an awful feeling!
I have ridden everything at WDW except Mission Space. I refuse to go on it. DH says I'll be OK, but then again he told me that on the tea cups. :madhatter

I used to love spinning rides, but age has done something to my inner ear, and now I can't handle them much. No more tea cups for me! I have done MS, once just to say I did it, and it didn't effect me too much, but I probably wont do it again. Just gives me a headachy feeling for a couple of hours after. I have also done TOT, and thought the visual effects on that one are some of the best at WDW, but I don't do it anymore. I love Primeval Whirl, but it too gives me a headache. DH wont do Dinosaur. He says it's too loud, but I'm quite sure it is because he is very fearful of all things cold blooded like snakes, etc, so dinasaurs are out for him! He went once, and that was enough for him!

Atleast Im not alone in avoiding Astro Orbiter or the Tea Cups :blech: I have no problems with any of the coaster, ToT, M:S or the simular rides but these first two make me ill.
disneylogic
11-20-2005, 07:34 PM
i'm not a coaster person. but i love RnRC, ToT, TMRR, and, even if not a coaster, Mission. don't like the high-flying spin things, perhaps acrophobia having something to do with it. and although i've ridden Space Mountain, i don't enjoy it. don't enjoy the banging and jerky accelerations. can give me a headache.

I am terrified of heights and so none of the coasters are for me. I love the Teacups, though. Although I am over 40 now so that may change... I plan to enjoy the teacups while I can!
Also, ever since that poor guy was killed on Big Thunder in Disneyland I am terrified of that thing... Any chance of my family talking me into that one is over! I read about how the "engine" smashed him and I would be hysterical on every turn, waiting to get hit... What a tragedy that was. I know they have fixed it but I am chicken! When my family goes on it I just can't even look... I go to the gift shop!

No coasters, no tea cups, no TOT, no Mission Space, no coasters. Give me a good ole audioanimatronic ride anytime. Or an Off Kilter show!
Honestly the attractions are only a small part of my WDW experience now. I love to stroll around and look at all the details that go into the parks, and catch all the different fun shows (ie jammitors, barbershop quartet, the piano player on main street, push the talking garbage can, the actors that put on skits in MGM, and all the special shows in World Showcase). I still have some must do attractions, but a lot less than I had years ago. I like to take it easy and take time to smell the roses.

You know, I've been on it a few times, and have really enjoyed it...but...I don't consider Mission Space a "fun" ride. I admire Disney for making such a realistic simulation of space travel, but its' greatest strength might be it's greatest weakness...it might be TOO realistic. I think it's an outstanding attraction, and one I would reccomend highly, but I don't find myself drawn to it, or consider it a "must-ride". For me, there is a bit of "recovery time" required after a trip to Mars. :faint:

Mission: Puke---as it is known in the Dumas House. DH almost had to go back to the room.
Teacups--barf bag optional. Haven't done it in years.
Everything else is a go. Poor DH, he can't even walk by M:S without feeling seasick.

LOL! My DH, too. His knees get all wobbly and he says his stomach hurts if he even so much as LOOKS at that ride. It's a running joke in our house.
