SICK FACTOR OF RIDES: 1-5 Rating!!!

[Selina]

Ok. Thought it might be helpful to people who suffer with motion sickness on rides!!

Can we have sick factor rating from personal experience (please say whether you suffer from motion sickness when you give your rating!)

SICK FACTOR 5 - uGHHHHHHHH very sick or feel very sick, have
to sit down for at least an hour to recover!!!!

SICK FACTOR 4 - Pale, feeling queasy, not feeling so happy now!

SICK FACTOR 3 - Tummy feels unsettled and you feel shakey,
think you'll go and take a break.

SICK FACTOR 2 - Tummy a tiny bit unsettled - but you feel happy
enjoyed the ride and will go on again in a little
while as you thought it was great!

SICK FACTOR 1 - Tummy is fine - can eat a burger from burger
digs, and can repeat the ride over and over!!

***************************************************

I'll post this up and think about my sick ratings for them too.

Hulk was a sick-factor of one for me. I remember I ate a pizza and mousse cup at comic strip cafe, then ran over to the Hulk right when I was done (because had Express passes about to expire), and got right on. My stomach fliped and floped more than usual...but it was fun and interesting experience. Never felt SICK though.

LOL though I'd probably say for the average people it would be a 2?

MIB: 3 because of the spins...and especially with the fog at the end combined with spins. I've felt light headed before. Gotta hate it too when people make your car spin like 7 times in a row too.

Okay...here's some of mine:-

Universal : Earthquake (1), Jaws (1),BTTF (4-5), MIB (2), ET (1), Terminator (1 I think). These are the rides that spring to mind at the moment.

IOA: Spiderman (2), Barges (1),JPRA (1)....have to go - will post some more later........................

Hi Clare......I've got a whopper of a headache coming on.....going to get some paracetamol - must be all the mother's day drinkies!!! TTYL

USF:
Quake, Mummy, Jaws, Shrek, Woody Coaster, Fievel Slide = 1

MIB, BTTF, Jimmy Neutron = 1-2

IOA:
Doctor Doom, JPRA, Ripsaw, Flying Unicorn, Caro-seuss-el, One Fish Two Fish, Spider-Man, Popeye & Blutos, P-Flyers = 1

Hulk, Dueling Dragons = 1-2

Storm Force greatly varies, depending on spin speed. I rate it 1-4, as I've felt all of those levels...

BTTF = 5, won't ride it any more.

I wish they'd change the program so it doesn't shake as much. People have been complaining about being tossed around like rocks in a tumbler, yet nothing is done about it.

Yup, it's a 5.

BTTF was a 4 for me and I've never been motion sick in my life until I rode that. That is not a fun ride.
MIB was a 2...our car must have spun about 30 times.

Thanks for replies. I think they will be very helpful. I was surprised Dr Doom was only a 1 DM...I have never been on that because I always thought I'd feel really sick going up and down - and I'm really glad you think the mummy will be a 1!!!

 

[the Dark Marauder]

For me, it was only a 1.

 

[Selina]

OK. Guess I should go on it next time so I can give it a rating.....(hope it isn't a 5..... )

 

[the Dark Marauder]

Only if rollerghosters make you go

Selina, Dr. Doom didn't make me sick at all. I've been on it many times.

 

[wendypooh]

I have to agree about BTTF.......... man, that ride is rough!!!!! I had bruises the next day............ I was rocked and jerked around.... didn't care for it!!

Really nothing made me "ill" though. NOT like those tea cups at disney............ now those are nausiating!!!!

 

[ritzbuddy]

Thanks, All. That settles it. I am going to skip the BTTF ride when we go. I remember I think it was Body Wars at WDW that made my stomach queasy. BTTF sounds worse! - plus you get kinda beaten up! My kids will laugh at me, so I think I'll suggest lunch after that ride

 

[LilyStar]

I"m staying with the group on Back to the Future....I will never ever again go on that one. Just the same as Body Wars at Disney....ICK! Total nausea and dizziness.

I was apprehensive to go on Dr. Doom also but finally did it based on the review in Sehlinger's Unofficial Guide that said "Bark is worse than the bite" on this one. And I was very pleasantly surprised, it's now one of my favorites and I get VERY VERY motion sick on rides. This one did nothing but give me a few butterflies....was fun!

BTTF- 5, if not for the jerking around, for the number of times you get your head banged into the side of the car if sitting in the rear. I will have to go again when I take the kids, but I am sitting in the front seat or middle. As for Body Wars at Epcot, you are right, I absolutely hated it and my whole family did as well. We all came off slightly (and me more than slightly) ill, and agreed never again. This and we all LOVE rollercoasters.
BTTF is not as bad as Body Wars, but the ride needs revamping desperately.
