Think about the way your body responds when you ride a roller coaster. Part of you is terrorized by the sights and sounds as well as the speeding motion with the sudden twists, turns, tugs and twitches. I enjoy riding roller coasters, and yet there are still some that I have not conquered like the X-flight; there is just something about standing up to ride a coaster that I haven’t been able to get comfortable with in my head. Coasters cause fear and yet there is also the thrill, laugher and happiness of the moment because rationally you know that you are completely safe from any real danger.
