Which rides scare you the most?

Mission: Space for SURE! We're here now and I had my fiancé ride it first to tell me how it was. He said it wasn't bad at all and I really needed to try it. I was having a mini panic attack in line the whole time and there are so many warnings everywhere about the ride! I was so scared and always have been of this ride. I ended up riding it and it wasn't as bad as I was expecting BUT it kind of ruined our night a little because the we were both pretty disoriented after. We ended up leaving the park early and missing Illuminations. So, needless to say, I probably won't be doing this one again!



The other side isn't bad at all. I rode the orange side once...never again. I was dizzy the rest of the day.
 
Dinosaur absolutely terrified me from when I was five to when I was... Wait, I'm still scared :rotfl: I didn't open my eyes on the ride until I was fourteen! I still ride it, but once (twice max) is enough for me per trip
 
Alien Encounter (which is Stitch now) started with the scientists talking about a program where Earth was going to switch a human for a cute little alien from another planet. (You are strapped in the seats). It shows the cute little alien we're going to get, but before they push the button they yell into the speaker something about another planet entering into the teleport path and to abort. They go ahead, and in the center of the room is the glass tube where the alien is going to appear. There are flashes, and mist, and a really terrifying alien appears. Then the lights go out, you hear a crash, a flash, and you see the glass dome is broken and the alien is gone - right before the lights go out for good. The rest of the experience is the alien walking around the room in the dark, while the scientists try to tell you how to behave to avoid being attacked by this creature. You can hear him walking, snorting in your ear, etc, even breathing on the back of your neck. They were trying to tell you not to scream (at first) but it was really scary.
 
EXpedition Everest for me was not fun. I couldn't keep my eyes open. The two teens with me did not want to do it again either. None of us was quite sure why we didn't like it. (We love Space....)

The place I have panic attacks is in the final couple hallways before Soarin. (I love the ride!) something about those ultra plain, narrow hallways makes me feel claustrophobic..:confused3. Two trips ago my Dsis and I see were in line in ht second to last short hallway,cand we had a long period during which we were not moving at all. There were no CMs at either end of the line or anywhere in sight, no updates. (Must have been a problem somewhere.) we both could just feel our anxiety rising. It was a very strange, tense, trapped feeling.....? Eventually, we just bailed and climbed under/ over the fence and walked back out. still no Cm... Anyone else feel claustrophobic in there, for lack of a better word..?
 

Without question Tower of Terror. I rode it a few times and then I stopped because I hated it. Went last year and I was even more terrified. The pictures were priceless.

Alien Encounter really was terrifying. And I loved it!!
 
I am terrified of the pooh ride. I know, don't look at me like that. Every time I get on it, it breaks down! I've gone on that four times and every time it breaks down. The last time the cast member left us in there for 20 minutes, and passed us to go deeper into the ride to get them out first... and top of the lungs yelled at us when we took pictures of each other while waiting. She wouldn't let us out of the car until we had 'erased' the pictures.

I will never go on that ride again.

Really? We got stuck on it too, in a doorway, so we had to be the last ones evacuated. We had a blast and took a ton of pictures as we walked out & nobody said a word. The kids riding in the back of the car were Epcot CMs and they posed for pictures, too.

ToT scares me. I really hate the drops. I don't really like Space Mountain. It's not scary, it just hurts.
 
I really hate Space Mountain (WDW) - it's uncomfortable for me, and scary because I feel really unsafe, and it hurts my back, and I wind up making deals with Jesus to please just let me safely get off of this ride.

I rode SM at DL this past fall and LOVED it - the ride is smooth and enjoyable and does not scare me to death. We rode it 4 times in a row and it was awesome.
 
Dinosaur.

I can't do the Jurassic park ride at IOA either... My conclusion is that I have an irrational fear of dinosaurs.... :rolleyes1
 
I'll probably be the only one nominating this ride but.... Space Mountain. Terrifying! There is something about those sound effects that made it seem like I was about to be decapitated!
I've only ridden Space Mountain once and I found it quite scary. I don't even remember any sound effects. I was just holding on for dear life because I thought I was going to be thrown from my seat. That was in 2012 and I've taken two trips since then and haven't ridden it since.

I'm also afraid of Kali River Rapids (because you get soaked) so I've never tried it.

No other attractions are a problem for me.
 
Astro orbiter. It's a height thing. I've been on e and never again.
I've only ridden Astro Orbiter once so maybe I don't remember it being that high, but isn't it basically the same ride as Dumbo, Triceratops Spin, and the Magic Carpet ride? Are you afraid of all of those?
 
No ride at Disney scares me. My favorites are Tower of Terror and Space Mountain. Have done Mission Space, not a favorite but it doesn't scare me. Dinosaur is just jerky.

Astro orbiter is very high and goes faster than Dumbo, so much more centrifugal force when riding.

Just rode the Rip Ride Rockit at the Studios last week and that scares me a little when going up the first vertical hill.
 
TOT im not scared i just really dislike the fall. I ride it because I love everything else leading up to the elevator dropping.

Ok. I remember being underwhelmed by it when I rode, but maybe I'll give it another shot. I didn't use my height control switch to make it go any higher, but it bored me overall.

It's a very short ride and slow loading, so we won't wait in line more than 10 minutes for it, and the cars are two small for 2 full sized adults to ride comfortably together. I enjoy the sights from the ride, especially at night.
 
I think everyone would agree that the ride to and from the parks in your personal auto is the most scary and dangerous activity. Far more scary than any ride at Disney.

Astro orbiter is on top of a building and the rocets tilted and I felt like I was going to fall out. Logically I know that wasn't to happen. I'm fine with the other ones ( dumbo, magic carpets etc). I also don't do ferris wheels of any kind
 
The "ride" that freaked me out the most was Honey We Shrunk Ourselves. I remember watching that at age 8 and diving into my dad's lap because it was that scary. If DW ever brings that back I will not be able to do it.
 
I absolutely hate It's Tough to be a Bug. I's not really scary, but I think it's mean-spirited and just not appropriate for Disney. Tried it a couple of times, but just don't like it. I haven't been on it in years.
