When you go down the flume is it hard on the neck and back? I'm wondering if the landing is kind of a smooth one, or do you feel an impact? On the three smaller dips, will it hurt a problem back or neck? Thanks!!!!
 
I have a bad back (2 surgeries), and I've ridden Splash Mountain many times. I don't recall it being too hard a landing.
 
I have FMS and am in a lot of pain all the time, Splash Mountain is doable for me.. I love it..

When you hit the bottom, you put up a big spray of water so it looks like you land harder than you do. I think the ride actually has sprays of water timed to spray up as you land to add to the effect of the water spray.
 

chronic neck problems here..but no problems with Splash at all.
 
I have neck problems (surgery Oct. 3rd) but have never considered Splash to be a problem. The only thing that gets me is all the water!!
 
They do have a warning sign though that anyone with back, neck, heart problems should not ride. Just an FYI. I would think it's up to each guest's judgement as to how severe their own problem is- sounds like most people have not been uncomfortable on SM.---Kathy
