What is the best roller coaster you have ever been on?

[Dun-Cow]

Manta, Sea World, Florida

 

[Herberthall]

The Big Dipper @ Seaburn mind it was a bit dodgy.

1967: Seven hurt in fair accident

 

[Epping]

Unfortunately is no more, wasn't it dismantled earlier this year?

Smiler at Alton Towers for me

Nooooooo

Nooooooo

It was.. Quite sad about that. . Loved it

The old wooden one at Busch Gardens in Florida is still my favourite. There’s something extra scary about the older more traditional roller coasters...

That was horrific. It left you black and blue it shook you that much. It’s been a while since I was at Busch Gardens so don’t know about the newer rides.

Best 3 in Orlando are all at Seaworld.
Mako, Manta and Kraken.

I do like the Mummy most of the Universal parks.

It was a belter, when it came to a bend you thought the car was going to go off the track and carry on flying through the air in a straight line, but then it did a 90 degree turn right at the last minute

I dried my socks on that ride they were soaked so I took them off and held them in my hands as went around.

Got a picture and the socks whacking the person in face behind me

The Gwazi, think it's gone now.

Haha! Cypress hill was my choice too. You can buy the video of your ride and we went to take a look at our videos and mine just showed me singing (white dad rapping) along to Insane In The Brain for the whole ride. Embarrassing tbh.


They also got a life-changing amount of compo, too, mind. Think I’d swap a leg for a few million if I’m honest.

You got kids?

You got kids?

Yes. Let’s not get all outraged though eh? I wouldn’t swap one of my kids legs for a mill, but I’d happily give one of mine.

It’s the internet mate, not everything said on it is serious business.

Hulk is class

I’m not outraged, just thought that it was in poor taste.

 

[RossTheNinja]

The mummy. Feels like you're out of control the whole time.
The ultimate. What a first drop that is. If you're on the back you take off and don't touch the seat till the bottom

Of course it was...I’m a twat.

Chopped them legs off ! Haway man, they were bairns who had life changing injuries.

Chopped legs off, iirc

Shiekra (sp?) at Busch Gardens. Leaves you dangling vertically before the brakes are released and you plummet. Good ones at Universal and Sea World too but that's my favourite. The Comet at Coney Island is also very good, considering it's age.

FFS, I meant the Cyclone at Coney Island. The Comet is a roller coaster themed pinball machine made by Williams in the mid 80s.

As others have said, Hulk at Universal is brilliant.
In the UK, the Big One and Big Dipper and Grand National at Blackpool are classics too.

 

[Daffy]

Big one in Blackpool
Dunno if it’s still there

 

[peachy]

PNE in Vancouver.

Genuinely thought I might die.

Wooden and gravity powered.

Horrific.

Not being clever or ought but that looks pretty tame

The Gwazi, think it's gone now.

Gwazi in Busch Gardens was fantastic, a brilliant wooden roller coaster and a real shame they shut it down. Shambhala at Portaventura is my current favourite coaster although Red Force in Ferrari Land at Portaventura is fantastic (although maybe too short). I've always liked Montu (especially front seats) but Sheikra is spot on too in Busch as well.
