How turbulent is the Spider-Man ride? Indiana Jones/Dinosaur is about my limit!

I am a certifiable wimp and Spider Man was great! I actually rode it 2 times in a row. If I can do it anyone can. Don't miss it!

Dinosaur was WAY too rough for me, gave me whiplash! Spiderman was not a rough ride at all, in fact, the visuals are so incredible, you barely realize what's happening to your body!!

Go and enjoy!

I agree!! This ride is great ( I am a wimp too) The only part that bothered me was the "flying upward part and the falling down part" so I looked down at my lap or at my daughter laughing hysterically and I could not feel a thing!! That is the good thing about simulators... you can always look away!! :) I think you will be ok!

and was told it would be no prob for my 70yo dad who got motion sick on "winnie the pooh" (what a wimp, hey?). Then we watched " behind Universal" on TV last week and they should the ride spinning. Needless to say my Dad thinks I am trying to collect my inheritance early after watching the show.

They didn't spin that much, and it seemed like they only spun once, not over and over again. I could not have handled that. If I went on the spinning teacup ride I would be sick in about 5 seconds. Believe me, Spider Man was fine.

I'm a wimp too -- no coasters for me!! Spiderman was too cool. You shouldn't miss it, really!

Spider-Man turns you around 3 times in a row. That's probably the biggest amount of motion in the ride. There are some simulated motions, though (the movie moves a lot, but the car doesn't).
