Dumbo - as bad as they say?

[Robo]

Did you get sick riding it? Did you see anybody get sick riding it?

I've gotten sick looking at the length of the line waiting for a 1-minute ride that doesn't actually go anywhere.

Does that count?

 

[The Sweetness]

Maybe a little sunburn or dehydration from standing there, broiling, while waiting for our turn?

I don't do well on spin-type rides but had no problem with Dumbo. The ride length is very short, so even if you do start feeling ill, which I doubt you will, the ride would likely end before you "got sick".

Astro Orbiter is the one that will make you sick.

My DS & I both had no problems with the "spin-factor" my only problem is the height-factor. I am such a wimp. I have no problem on RnR or Space Mtn, because I'm in the dark and can't really see if I'm high up. My son won't let anyone spin the Teacups very fast...that makes him a lil green around the gills.

I think it is the teacups, not Dumbo, that makes some people sick.

OMG!!! Dumbo makes my whole family feel so ill. Please, please, heed my advice and stay far away from Dumbo.

Hiya Neighbor! I'm in Plymouth County!
Anyway...TTA is about the only "ride" my mom can do...lol Altho I gotta give that woman some serious credit....for the love of her grandson she rode Goofy's Barnstormer....I did notice her hands were a bit shaky after that.

We love TTA when we need a cool calm break. The breeze is nice as it cruises around.

I actually never heard anyone say they got sick on Dumbo - it's pretty tame. The Teacups are another story, though. DH wimps out of many of these fast-moving or spinning rides, and I love them all, so DD and I are a team most of the time. She's still only 7 and won't do roller coasters yet, but she loves all the tamer rides (the Teacups make me a little dizzy sometimes, though).

If you're not afraid of heights, give Dumbo a try - you can see so much from up there and there's a beautiful breeze!

Hey! I got it! Didn't my dry tone and deadpan expression come through the keyboard?

Maybe I should have added one of these to show I was in on the intent:

Or one of these:

Possibly one of these: , but then people would have to figure out that he's winking with the eye that's hidden behind the patch, and then we're maybe getting too subtle again.

Dumbo makes me vomit violently! I have to find a nice bench in a shady area to stretch out on until I feel better.

I hope they offer "Dumbo, GREEN TEAM" very soon.

Dumbo without the spinning... that's a ride guests can really enjoy!!

I once saw Dumbo #8 puke after an entire Brazilian tour group wearing heelies rode him!
