This is the scariest one that I've ever rode on, and it wasn't so much that it was scary, (which it was) but that they missed me when they were checking seat belts, and all that I could think as I was hanging upside down is "what if".
I was TRULY terrified! My friends were all shocked at how white I was after the ride, because I generally don't get scared!
For those of you who have been privileged (hehe) to go to Cedar Point. What is your fave roller coaster? I luv the Blue Streak. Everytime on the first drop you come out of your seat. One time I just kept getting in line to ride it over and over.
When I was twelve I rode the blue streak with a man that was rather large. We were unable to buckle the seat belt. That was the best ride, I flew up at every hill. From then on I would only pretend to buckle the seat belt. Last time I rode it though they added shoulder harnesses and it wasn't near as much fun.
I love the Magnum. I haven't tried the newer rides though, so I couldn't say for sure that there isn't one I would like better.
I don't like the jerky ones. I went on the Cork Screw 1 time when I was a teenager and when I got off my neck hurt so bad from being jerked back and forth. I said I would never ride it again. I like the smooth ones that just go up and down. It's probably been 4 or 5 years since I was at CP. They didn't have the shoulder harnesses then on the Blue Streak....bummer that they added it. When I was about 12 our church went and a husband and wife were in the front car of the BS, when they went down the first hill they were standing straight up in the air. Their bar had broken. They were terrified...teehee. Sounds like fun to me.
When I can Ie of the church kids to rides...I ride with them. Lately my back has been so bad I don't think I could ride the rough rides...however I am not afraid.

I'll ride anything except a wooden coaster. Too bumpy. Hurts my back.
(BTW, I have been on Splash Mountain again, several times. Conquered my fear! )

I am not tall enough for most of them, which it doesn't matter anyway, I like speed but not all the crazy loopy thingys. I just like to watch.........
