Personally, I love a thrill of a
rollercoaster. The heart pounding rush from the drops and turns at high speeds
is addictive.
I think, but don't quote me on this, that
going at high speeds and making the turns and drops, that roller coasters make,
causes our bodies to pump out adrenaline. Sort of similar to a surge of adrenaline
that we feel from the fight or
flight response.
In a way, we get a euphoric high off of
this surge of adrenaline. This high can become addictive, causing us to seek
roller coasters and other thrilling activities more actively.
That is why people who like roller coasters
are referred to as thrill seekers, or adrenaline junkies. Also, similar to
people who bungee jump, sky dive, or other extreme sports. I'd venture to say
similar to a person who purposefully
walks through a sketchy area, knowing that
something bad might happen.
We had to start with the ultimate
crowd-pleaser. Yes, Magic Kingdom is massive and a day there can be exhausting,
but there's really something for everyone -- and the characters and stories
that inspired the attractions have a soft spot in our hearts, which is why
families from all over the world flock there every year.
For little kids: Take a boat ride and sing
the infectious song at "it's a small world;" tour Mickey and Minnie's
homes.
For big kids: Don't miss favorite coasters
Space Mountain and Splash Mountain.
For parents: Cool off and rest your feet at
the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor, where you can take in a comedy show for all
ages to enjoy. Baby Care Centers include nursing rooms, changing tables, family
bathrooms, feeding area with highchairs, and a microwave, oven and sink.
Getting around: The park offers a variety
of accommodations and assistance for people with disabilities.
On any theme park ride, it is most
important to keep your rear in the seat at all times. Always keep your hands
and body inside the car. If there is no grab bar, keep your hands on your lap.
If you are riding a "floorless" coaster, relax your legs and let them
dangle underneath you. Don't kick them out to the side or towards the front.
Before the ride starts: Please don't crowd
others who might be exiting when you are getting on. If you are on a ride (http://sinoamusementrides.com/thrill-rides-for-sale/) with
a lap bar, seat belt or safety harness, make sure that it is in place, snug and
locked. If the ride starts to move and your restraint is not in place,
immediately yell (loudly) for help. We have seen too many incidents occur where
a fatality occurred because this was not done.
Finally and most importently, do not get on
or off a ride until you've been given the okay by an attendant to do so. Make
sure that your vehicle has completely stopped and that you are solidly on the
platform before you try and get off. Often, vehicles stop short of the unload
platform to wait for groups up ahead to exit and some riders get a little
impatient. Not a good scenario.
