Is slinky dog less intense than the dwarf mine ride?

[ScubaCat]

After the initial ‘shock’ of how intense I found slinky dog to be..

I happily rode it 10 times back to back
And lived to tell the tale.

Nobody's been hurt on any of these rides in my 35 years of visiting. I'm pretty sure they're perfectly safe!

Let’s hope so!

SDD was more intense IMO than 7DMT. I'm not a coaster fan per se so that being said, I was kind of surprised that it was as intense as it was. I don't know if this makes sense to others but I could really feel the track and I do have a bit of a fear of heights so that could be part of it too. Now that I'm prepared mentally for it, I would definitely do it again though DH will not go near it.

I usually take a nap on 7DMT (albeit only for the 8 seconds the ride lasts). To me, this is the same as comparing sitting at the bus stop vs riding the bus. Yes, riding the bus is more intense. No, it is not scary or overwhelming by any stretch.

Both of these attractions are highly family oriented rides, and are both very short (although SDD is actually enjoyable if you don't miss it. ).

OK, I see my reply has the asterisks also in stead of the first letters of slinky dog dash. I guess I need to google why that's bad??

So, interesting, on my phone the abbreviation SDD is allowed in safari, but on my laptop in chrome it is asterisked out. I happen to have always read this thread in my computer before, tonight I looked on my phone. Weird.

I get motion sick. I can do SDMT although I wouldn’t do it twice in a row. I was so sick after doing Slinky Dog I had to go back to the room to lie down. I can do FOP but not Star Tours. Splash Mountain but not BTM.

I don't get it that bad, but sadly I do get motion sick as I get older. Thank goodness for dramamine!
