Hulk Coaster? Should I try it?

[PlutoLuvr]

DH loves the Hulk, goes on it over and over and over.

My mom, on the other hand, hated it. This was the coaster that ended all coaster rides for her. She was sick for a few days after (spent the rest of vacation in the hotel in bed).

I don't go on it. I know my limits, and rides like Shrek, Twister and Jaws are more my speed.

Be safe. Know your body. Don't be peer-pressured to do anything that might cause harm to yourself or ruin your vacation -- or worse. I think if there's any one thing we can all learn from that horrible tragedy with that German woman who had ridden M:S (which may or may not be related to the ride, I know), is to know our bodies and what we can handle physically. I'm in the English business. My favorite rule is, "When in doubt, leave it out." I for one will be applying this rule when going to theme parks in the future, and I would suggest this to anyone in my party

I am an incredible coaster chicken. Almost bordering on paranoia. A couple of years ago, I made a bet with my son that if he challenged himself and accomplished a certain goal, I would challenge myself and ride one of the coasters on our upcoming trip. As you can see from my tag, I lost the bet. I had my pick of either of the DD or the Hulk. After several long threads and lots of encouragement from the folks here, I chose Hulk. I actually wanted the fast start rather than the long climb of DD.

I rode it, I survived and......I found I even enjoyed it.

I even bought the picture because Nobody would believe that I actually got on the thing. I am very glad I tried it. It has helped me try lots of other new things I was apprehensive to try. Leave it to a teenager to teach his mother something
