Like Carnival rides?

[Guest TankerHC]

[Volzfan]

I second that!!!

[Guest RedLights&Sirens]

Not without a wingsuit AND parachte but really, no. I hated ground ladders in my firefighting days, why would I do this?

[Monkeyman2500]

Noooooooooo wwwaaaaaayyyyyy!!!!!!! That bothers me just looking at it.

[rugerla1]

I don't think so Tim!

It's called Insanity and it's on the top of the Stratosphere Hotel in Las Vegas. When we were there in 2009, I couldn't even bring myself to go up there, much less ride the thing.

I went out there a few years ago and stood outside and looked at all the fools getting on it.  No way in Hell I was getting on.

[Guest PapaB]

Jeez, doesn't anyone here have a sense of adventure? That's what I call a real thrill ride.

[Defender]

Probably safer than getting in a car on the highway, but I would get on it, lol.

As I get older, my acrophobia gets progressively worse. Rides I used to be able to get on when I was younger terrify me now.

[vontar]

That is more fun then I can handle.

[UncleJak]

Not to get off topic, but my local fair is in town. I wouldn't ride those rides for nothing!  Anything that can be set up in 1hour or less has no business with me on it!

Thats what I was thinking, That thing and the roller coster would have to be a riot to ride

[Guest drv2fst]

I'd do it.  Adrenaline is the most natural drug there is.

They've also got the X-Scream:

 

 

 

 

I love roller coasters and could probably be coaxed into riding both.  Though I feel sure I'd scream like a sissy girl and have to sit down for a few minutes afterwards waiting for the shakes to subside. 

[Grunt67]

At least the name fits.   I'll pass.

[Dolomite`s Breezy]

Ahh.. hell no... I watch to many " Final Destination "  movies.

 

Things break, malfunction and get stuck.,..

I`ll pass:)

I used to like carnival rides, but a long time ago it got to where I'd even get on a ferris wheel and once it started moving, I'd notice all the joints creaking and the bearings squeaking, and notice the rust all over the moving parts, and begin to think about the carnies with three-day-old beards reeking of wine, operating the ride, and of course had set up the ride.

 

I won't even get on cable sky rides any more. All I do is stare up at the connection between the car and the cable, how flimsy and rusty it looks, one-inch steel with that right-angle weld up top, how it makes that loud klunk and jerk every time the cable moves over a squeaky roller wheel.

The anticipation was worse than the actual rides, of course with all of the free booze that they poured into me at the gabling tables I probably would have accepted just about any "dare" or even "double dare" while we were in Vegas, which I think is the whole point of all of the free booze.
