Most Jerky Thrill Rides

[stellablue]

I'm trying to get over my fear of these rides!! Just wondering which one is the roughest and which one is all talk (not as scary as it sounds)...

***Can't figure out how to EDIT MY POLL, but I am actually looking for which is the most jerky/shakey, not necessarily "scary" (though sometimes they go hand in hand)***

Ah, I voted ToT for scariest, however now I see your comment. Primeval Whirl is DEFINITELY the jerkiest ride at WDW in my opinion. That ride is painful!!!

I'm really surprised that so many people chose TOT. I've had several concussions and my head is easily bothered by rough rides and this is one ride that I can ride over and over repeatedly. I love TOT and I think it's very easy on the body. The up and down, out of your seat feeling is much easier to take than your head bouncing off the headrests of RnR.

 

[belsam]

I agree. I voted for Primeval Whirl as the roughest.

Of the ones you listed, i would say Primeval Whirl, but I actually voted for other:

Dinosaur at Animal Kingdom is the "jerkiest".

I'm voting for Rockin Roller coaster. It is the only ride in all of WDW that bothers me. It jerks around so much that I always hit my head on the bar that holds you in. It gives me a headache everytime. Not a big one but enough that it bothers me for a bit. I always ride it though because it is one of my sons' favorites and its right next to my all time favorite ToT.

BTW-i'm suprised also that anyone thinks that ToT is "jerky" I feel like the drop is pretty smooth. I was so scared to ride ToT that we didn't ride it our first 2 trips. I had to force myself on it on our third trip and I am so glad I did. ToT is an awesome ride!

Have fun!!

Out of the ones you have listed, I think Primevial is the jerkiest followed by Space Mountain.

I said Space Mountain. I actually think Tower of Terror is pretty smooth, as is Everest. I think Rock 'n' Roller Coaster is more disorienting than jerky (if you're stupid like me and watch yourself enter the corkscrew). Primeval Whirl I actually didn't get a chance to ride, as both my girlfriend and my brother "don't do spinning."
I also think Dinosaur is very jerky.
But for some reason, the ride that messes with my back is Test Track. I wouldn't call it the jerkiest by any means, but something about the way it shifts and the structure of the car doesn't agree with my lower back!

I voted other for Dinosaur. It is by far the jerkiest especially concerning my neck.

Secondly, I would say Primeval Whirl. There was only 2 of us in the vehicle and every turn we would get thrown into the sides of the vehicle. I felt sore and bruised after that experience. Maybe it's easier with four people.

I agree. I have a bad back and that one really did a number on me.

 

[WDW4ever]

I felt like I was going to throw up after Dinosaur and rides don't usually affect me at all. I felt sick for a good hour after that one. I think Test Track in Epcot is a bit jerky too.

Primeval Whirl is super jerky. This was the one coaster where I was honestly concerned that my vehicle was going to go flying off the track. EE is super duper smooth. If you are on the front part of RnR, that is also a pretty smooth ride. Space Mt and BTMRR are both relatively jerky. I find the left SM track a bit less jerky than the right side, IMO.

 

[Lemming_of_the_BDA]

I find Primeval Whirl the jerkiest. I love all rides and can take a lot, I convinced my sister to go on that one and she hates scary rides. I told her it wouldn't be so bad, but when we got of that I told that was one I would never do again, so I could only imagine how much she hated it.

Primeval whirl is the biggest waste of space on disney property. A chiropractor's dream... or nightmare.

 

[Charleyann]

Sitting in the dark, in the front row of space mountain can be down right scary You can see the turn coming but not the track and I swear it looks like you'll go over No more sitting in the front seat for me!

I also voted ToT because you can't predict when you are falling down

And after reading I agree with sugahappy about Primeval Whirl being jerky but my kids love it and we always ride it again and again . They get so happy !

 

[Pixiedust34]

To me, it's a tie between Dinosaur and Space Mountain. I find both to be too jerky to enjoy. JMHO--I know that they are wildly popular attractions and most people do like them.
