Adrenalin Junkie's! (theme parks)

[Minime]

Havent been alton towers since october 2004 when I took ex for our anniversary. Paid £255 for the hotel for ONE night B&B, it was the firework special so tickets were £28 each, plus the extra for fast track then paid for the evening meal. I asked him to buy me a drink and he stormed off telling me the marriage was over .

Dont bother with the hotel, overpriced crap and you have to queue for everything inside there too, stay at travel lodge down the road.


Steph, Air is actually very pleasant. Its smooth and glides round the track you wont be scared at all

[Minime]

Nope, I cited it in the divorce


I'm absolutely addicted to rollercoaster tycoon as well

Went to ratunga junction in south africa, checked before we drove there too and when we arrived they'd shut. Really peeved as we'd specifically checked and I wanted to go on cobra.

Theres one called The Hulk in USA where the coaster starts high up so its speed from the second you leave the station, I'd absolutely love to go on that one and Dragster in cedar point USA, 420ft tall and 120mph COOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!

[Layla]

Now you wouldnt get me on that if you paid me! So long as it has rollercoaster harnesses I'll go on anything, if it doesnt I wont touch it with a bargepole i.e. pepsi max at blackpool, I HATE it lol! Reason, no coaster harness.

 

[beanie]

does anyone else have coaster paranoia? As you go up the first slope I am the person jigging their harness to make absolutley sure its fastened. Can't do that on Rita though, it just shoots off.

I went to Alton Towers in June and didn't go on one ride

 

[Peanut]

Anyone been to Las Vegas?

The Stratosphere spikey thing that shoots you straight up in the air on top of the tallest thing on the Strip.....what a buzz.

I literally couldn't speak for about 5 minutes after that. No way was I going on the Teeter Totter (I think this is American for see-saw!) thing though....that was just scary sh*t as far as I could see!

Yeah I was nervous about it but it's really...nice...I just giggled all the way round, it's almost like being tickled I found

 

[Minime]

Peanut you are completely BARKING!!!! I feel ill just looking at that! If it was on the ground no problem but on top of a skyscraper NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

OMG I just looked at the others on there, not a chance no!!

 

[Flossy82]

[Yvanne]

[Yvanne]

[Amanda]

I'm definitely up for a Theme Park meet!!

DH is petrified of heights so I wouldn't get him anywhere near one!

I thought Oblivion was a bit of a let-down. It was scarier standing at the railings at the hole in the ground and watching other people fall through!!

 

[Minime]

Anyone been to "Blackpool comes to whatever town" and they have a version of blackpools spin doctor? I'm terrified of heights and me and DD got on first which means they stick your cab at the top whilst they load the bottom. I was doing Lou from little britain "DONT LIKE IT" and hung on that tight I got massive bruising on my arms from the pressure!!!

When it was going I was fine but it was just the bit being sat at the top and not moving, hated it!!!

And I'm absolutely terrified on Big Wheels yet will quite happily ride the front of Nemesis, Air and Oblivion (Dont do this in the rain it stings!!)
