Hearing aid and attractions

[UrsulasShadow]

I have a friend who wears a hearing aid and is going to WDW soon. She wants to know if there are any rides that have high-pitched sounds that may cause her anguish...I guess the problem is the pitch, not the volume.

Any ideas? Which attractions may have caused issues with any of those with hearing aids?

Thanks!

my son has the same issues - but he hasnt gone to disney in awhile - -

I'm starting in my mind at AK - and trying to remember if Dinosaur had any of those sounds - but I just dont think I can - and its such a hard issue to explain to others!

I would suggest looking for videos on www.youtube.com . Many of the rides are dark and the videos don't show much detail, but at least you could get an idea of the sounds for some of the attractions.

I can't think of anything off-hand, but one thing that may cause problems for her are the attractions where small kids get scared and scream a lot (Bug's Life at AK, Stitch at MK). All of the roller coasters include a lot of people screaming during the course of the ride - and Tower of Terror would be a car full of people mostly screaming.

Thanks, Sue...this is very helpful! I'll let her know.
