Go to Alton Towers they said. It'll be fun they said.

Good thing I ignored them.

I don't enjoy roller coasters. I don't like that weird drop feeling you get and I'm scared that something bad is going to happen.

I cant stand that drop feeling as well never understood what people like about it :X

I'm terrified of flying and when that feeling happens on planes, I start to panic.

I think people often overplay a lot of Injuries sustained at places like this, i'm sure they're serious but people often run around like headless chickens.
Just two weeks ago, a piece of railing or track came off and hit someone waiting in a queue at a place called Flamingo Land in the UK.

I went actually at Flamingo Land yesterday and went on every single ride, including the one that the accident happened on and I honestly felt safe, even when I was on the worlds steepest rollercoaster.

It all about the adrenaline rush.

Last night, my flight had to last minute emergency abort landing. Within a hundred feet or so of the runway, they had to kick the engines up to full and accelerate out. That was a bit concerning. But I'm also not afraid of flying at all. I'm much more worried about driving.
