I am just watching Despicable Me and they are on the Rollercoaster ride and I actually had to close my eyes when they went over the top lol.

Total wuss I know.

Who likes rollercoasters and which one is your favourite ride.

I loved them until about 2 years ago. Could go on them all day.

Something changed and 1 ride makes me feel sick now so I don't do them.

I had a similar experience about 25 years ago in Blackpool. I thought I was going to come out of a ride all the way round and all I can manage now is the big swing

Love them. I answered an ad to be on the test ride team of a roller coaster, haven't heard anything yet though. The Mrs Sensible part of me is wondering if it's a good idea!!

If you and I ever find ourselves at the same fairground we should grab a coffee together while we take care of coats

I love them, my middle son even more, we did 6 back to back on Colloseus before I tapped out, he went on twice more.

The youngest, won't even go on the Teacups!

Not a fan of heights so I usually avoid rollercoasters. I prefer old school carnival rides, like waltzers.

Like the Waltzers? It’s hard to stay in one place and not all end up in a heap at one end

My friend won’t go on the teacups either so I had to take her daughter on them when she was little.

If you like being bound by restraints and being jerked around, in a constant state of nausea then you may as well sleep with me, it'd be cheaper.

The new Steampunk Space Mountain at Disneyland Paris is amazing, as is the Aerosmith Rock n Rollercoaster.

TONNERRE DE ZEUS at Parc Asterix is just terrifying.

Wicker man is pretty good actually but nemesis is still my baby.

The smiler is also pretty awesome, I did enjoy that. I can see why they went through the effort to re-open it.

I also used to work at Alton towers lol (2010-2011).

Thorpe park wise.. I love the swarm.

Eep I love rollercoasters, and my faves are the fastest ones, I think Rita at Alton towers being the best. I like big high fast ones but Rita is the fastest imo.

On the flip side I can't do anything that spins or I

I love rollercoasters. I used to be afraid of them in my younger years but when I plucked up the courage to sit at the front on one big rollercoaster, I overcame my fears and been going on them ever since.

As for my favourite, it would have to be The Big One at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.

Shambala at Port Aventura is amazing, the feeling of of coming out of your seat as you go over the top of the hills is one I will never forget...
