Im sorry but I would have to say Mean Streak at CedarPoint. It looks nice & I LOVE Cedar point but it rattles me too much. Its either that or the no-more Psyclone at SFMM. Ow!

I agree.

^Trust me, man, there's A LOT worse things in Burbank than the Miner Mike.....

I'm also not a big fan of Lost Coaster at Superstition Mountain...

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!

Actually, It wasn't Miner Mike and it wasn't in Burbank I just saw Haunted Trails in Burbank and got another haunted park mixed up. It was this little coaster near Popler (not spelled right) Grove Il. That little oval kiddie is wild! (sadly :( Head banging, headache on wheels kinda coaster. That's why it's made for lil' kids. You can touch the ground if you reach out at one point.

Iron Wolf - the first time I ever rode that ride (back in '03), my ears were in so much pain.

Batman: The Escape (formally at the now defunct SFAW) - my head was in extreme pain.

Flying Coaster at Eltich Gardens - very uncomfortable

Head jurking was the word I was looking for and I don't know why it was so rough either.

designed for kids which are much shorter and therefor have a lower center of gravity. Adults being tall tend to get whipped around as the coaster isn't necessarily designed for adults. I've come across this on a lot of kids coasters, most notably Miler and Wisdom coasters. Miler coasters can be downright thrilling for adults :)

Twister at Knoebel's (I thought the train was going to break off a few times) and my back has been hurting more since I went in August 2007.

Boss at Six Flags St. Louis: Burn those breaking body Gerstlaurer Trains

or...

Shockwave at Great America: the Only coaster to give me physical injury
(I rode it at night, and my mouth bled a little. I'm serious.)


I'd rather ride American Eagle 25,000 times then any of those. (Not Iron Wolf 25,000 times as I still want to function properly.)
