So, I'm watching a Mickey Mouse cartoon and it made me realize my trip to Disney World. I had a lot of fun riding one particular ride that I thought got faster and is just ten times scarier when riding up front (first time ever!) I find that Space Mountain at Disney World is my favorite ride of all time.

Second would have to be Raging Bull. My boyfriend and I went to Six Flags during the summer and I was so scared of Raging Bull, it's so high up and I always thought that I might fly right out of the seats. He took me on it and we bought the picture... I wish I could show you my face but, it was just one of those first timer reactions. Smile is so huge and the expression just looks like they had the best time of their life at that moment.

So, what are your favorite rides and coasters?

All those worst roller coasters where you might get wet, not by pants but water, are cool. Viking ship rides are frightening to many and a nice way to scare people who are with you, for good. You can drop from them and die if you don't hold tight, too. I've seen a cell phone drop from one. See here.

The SuperMan.
Sneak something to drink on the superman, and right before you drop, hold some of the drink in your mouth.
You know how you catch a case of butterflies when storming down?
If you do what I said, it'll make you laugh, spit out the drink at the person in front of you and catch a bigger case of the butterflies!smile

Dunno. I only rose like 3 big ones at Silverwood. I'm willing to try any other big ones now since I love rollercoasters so much.

"The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man" at Universal Orlando is my favorite ride of all time. Like all rides, watching a POV of it on youtube doesn't do any justice for the ride, but for a Marvel / Spiderman fan the ride is one of the greatest things ever in person.

The Superman rollercoaster at Six Flags San Antonio is pretty darn good. Basically I'm a fan of any metal roller coaster with lots of spins and big drops.

Love the rollercoasters!

I also liked the spinning apple ride thing cause there is funny story to go with it. When I was with my father and some other people, we all went to the fair that was in town. We all got into on of those apples that have the wheel in the middle so you can make the apple spin. My father, another guy, and myself all grabbed the wheel and spun it as fast as we possibly could.

When we got off the ride the conducter asked if we were ok because in all his time working that ride, he had never seen anyone spin the apple that fast. Little to our knowledge, but we almost took the apple off of the track thing.

I also enjoy Space mountain. I rode that for the first time back in July. Fun as hell.

My favorite rides have to be Jurassic Park ORL Uv studios, I loved the King Kong ride before it got burnt down. Very awesome ride. Same with Jaws. So disappointing they're taking that out.

Sadly, the Big Bad Wolf closed down a couple years ago :/ But they're putting up a sort of homage rollercoaster to it this year, Verbolten.

Anyhow, I LOVE the Griffon at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. Best drop ride ever. Love The Alpengeist, Loch ness Monster *only fun if you sit in the far back*, the Volcano, and the Intimidator at Kings Dominion.

For those of you familiar with the Spiderman ride at Universal, the ride has been shut down a little while ago and will re-open sometime in March. They are revamping all of the visuals on the ride so it will look even more awesome.

Here are some pics of the updated visuals

New Hobgoblin appearance

Here is a video of where you first see spiderman on the ride with the new visuals.

Here is a clip that Universal released of part of the ride including Spiderman and Hobgoblin with the new visuals.

Both versions of the Intimidator are pretty crazy.

At the Charlotte location, the drop is 100 feet, I think, and all you have is a very tiny lap belt and a free range seat.

The King's Dominion version has you in a car with a full restraint, but the drop is 105 feet at very sharp angle. And the thing goes so fast through all the turns, I actually blacked out for a split second.

The X in Six Flags LA was pretty sick too. You're in a seat free of the track that flips backwards and upside down. You go up the hill head first, and then it flips you face first as you're coming down to the ground.
