For me it's Son of Beast and I don't think that will ever be topped. I remember it was down early in the day so we were in the park awhile doing other rides before getting on it, and I will never forget going up Adventure Expresses lift looking at Son of Beast with this face . If it were one of the new age-Intamin wooden coasters it wouldn't have made me nervous at all, but knowing it is one of those RCCA contraptions to me it just looks like a massive death machine. Going over SOB's lift I was expecting the worst but fortunately even though it was rough it wasn't as horrible as it looked (certainly wasn't any good either). Sure there are plenty of other terrible massive wooden coasters like Mean Streak and Rattler, but there will only ever be one Son of Beast.
Windestorm at Old Town in Kissimee, FL. The seats had no padding to speak of, the ride op started the ride before I sat down (I was the only person riding) and the restraints refused to stay down the entire ride.
The Jeepers coaster in Detroit. Me and my friend were THE only white people in this crowded mall on a Saturday night. That alone didn't make it scary. It was the fact that we were getting mean stare downs by everyone as we were walking though, some guys in a SUV were yelling at us to roll down our windows, people making random remarks towards us. I didn't feel scared necessarily, but I definitely felt extremely uncomfortable.

For me it was Dejavu. The first time I did it was in the front seat and getting pulled up that 90 degree tower scared me pretty good especially at the end when it catches the train (sometimes ) and jerks you foward. I felt like the harness was going to break on me!
After that I was ADDICTED!!! Man do I miss that ride.

I loved that ride so much, I literally cried I was so angry when I came to the park in 2008 lookin at the site. UGH I wish they'd just "give it back". That is my all time greatest amusementpark disappointment.
DejaVu scared me everytime with this crazy good rush of adrenaline...but THE ONE TIME it truly made me panic was when I sat in the front row, we went through the course forwards then backwards back through the station, went straight up and freefell back down again through the station when the brakes caught us goin up into the cobra SLAMMING us into the restraints. Haha. It hurt pretty bad but made it worth it when I looked down, I saw this woman in the que look up, put her hand up in the air SCREAM "AWW HELL NOO" she then continued to hop the fence twords the old "Farmers Market" where she had groups of people follow her. Haha! We sat there for about 15min I'd say, maybe less, and then rocked back n' forth until we stopped which somehow made guests on the train sick haha. That was one of my fav memories of SFGAm. ;D
I had my eyes closed on the very first drop of Raging Bull the first time I went on it. After that I kinda slowly opened my eyes. After that I was still a little nervous but Im a Bull regular now.
I don't get scared on most rides. However, Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Orlando actually did scare me. It was at the part near the end with the fake unloading section. Let me start by saying, I don't like fire when I can feel the heat from it. When the room closed off and then the ceiling catches on fire, that was about the closest I ever came to trying to jump out of the car. For the ten seconds or so that was going on, there was an epic battle in my head. The rational part of me saying, "It's part of the ride, you're fine," and the survival instinct saying, "OMG FIRE! GTFO!"
Scariest ride of my life was my first ride on Top Thrill Dragster. I had no idea what to expect on the launch, but after we started going down I had my hands up the whole way.
Getting dragged onto raging bull when i was 6. It was the same day I cried on Whizzer, by the way. I was a tall kid. But now I'm not really scared by rides.
I generally carry Camel Menthol, I figure it's close enough, plus there is now a bulb in them where if you pop it, it's like smoking a cough drop, blows Newport out of the water
