What are some roller coasters safety?

Question

I have never been on those big kinda scarey ones, so im nervous.

Answer 1

First, you should start out small. Try something small, like something that doesn't go upside down or isn't too intense, and work your way up on the rides. Rollercoasters aren't as scary as they look, they are just all fun. Who knows, you might like it.

Every upside down ride or rollercoaster is different, but going upside down is generally the same on most. You don't feel it or notice it at all. Once you notice that there's a loop or an inversion in the track, you already went through it! The loops go by way to fast for you to even notice it, it isn't that bad at all. It's never to late to get over your fear, and what better time to do it when you're with your friends having fun? It's all worth a try, life's too short to not try new things.

And by the way, I know this is going to at least cross your mind once, so I might as well tell you. Coasters are VERY safe. Statistically, driving in a car to the theme park is 10 times more dangerous than getting hurt on a coaster. You are more likely to win the lotto then get hurt on a ride. Think about it, and try some coasters. You'll have a blast. :)

Don't be nervous! They are designed to feel like they are unsafe or dangerous but in reality, they are perfectly safe. If you are still nervous...look up on youtube for on-ride videos of the coasters you are scared of that you want to try. That helped me when I used to be scared, and hey, it might help you. Good luck!

Answer 2

Alright I have been on lots and lots and lots and lots of rollercoasters. There are differnt types

wooden: Very fast but no flips or corkscrew but an ocasional drop:

all the rest are about the same except for suspended similar to the superman ride at six flags where you accually ride on your stomach and get the sensation your flying.

Most important rule keep your head back because there are going to be alot of jerks so you may hurt your neck if your leaning foward or looking at the person next to you. The nerves your getting is half the fun of the roller coaster. When you wait in line that exileration watching othe people flying through the air and knowing your gonna be next gives you somtimes a huge rush. The best way to enjoy them is keep your eyes open look foward and inticipate whats going to happen next. Don't fear the danger because nothing in this world is completly safe. Along with the worker checking your safty bar/ vest check it yourslef so you dont come off the coaster with a death grip. After your first one of the day you will feel like you can go on anything. Its gonna feel wierd but you will eventually feel more comfortable as you go on difernt types.
