State Fair Of The Roller Coaster-Personal Narrative

Roller coasters are one of the most popular rides when you go to an amusement park with everybody in your family. Why are they so scary for some people while for others it is just another adrenaline rush? Roller Coasters are one of the most complicated rides to build and to actually ride. There are some people who just have fun building something to have a quick adrenaline rush before going to work. Roller coasters have some of the most interesting design and history; they have become one of the world’s famous rides at every amusement park.

I was miserable, I couldn’t back out because I knew I’d receive a punishment later. My family consists of very pushy people. I nervously waited in line for what seemed like hours, and then we reached the front. The worker let us in and we sat into the bright, cyan chairs. Right then and there, I began to tear up. I was terrified! I kept telling myself that I wasn’t ready for the Leviathan, especially since it was a such a big ride and it was my first rollercoaster! “I want to get off.” I said, my eyes watery. “I can’t do this.” I was about to get out when I realized that this would be only chance to ride a rollercoaster all the way in Canada. I wouldn’t be able to go back until I was much older. I took a deep breath, and sat back down. “Don’t worry, Leviathan isn’t that bad. It’ll be over before you know it.” The worker reassured me. Then the ride started. I closed my eyes on the way up because I didn’t want to see how high up we were. I thought silently to myself about my life choices and how stupid I was to go on this ride. When the screaming began, I knew we were close to the big drop. I grabbed my seat tightly and braced myself for it. Woosh! It happened in a matter of seconds and I was too surprised to scream. The butterflies in my stomach were so intense! I opened my eyes and took in the height. I finally realized that I actually really liked the feeling of being on a rollercoaster. I was laughing and screaming “Can we go again?” by the time it was over. After the Leviathan, we went on The Bat, which went upside down and backwards and the Behemoth. By the end of the day, I realized that I shouldn’t judge things too quickly. I never rode a rollercoaster before that, so I never knew what it was really like. I learned that I should always give things a chance before I judge

Just as I arrived in the line the previous riders were leaving. Before I knew it, the gate had opened and we were getting onto the ride. It felt like an out of body experience. Perhaps that was just my sanity watching in awe from afar. I left my shoes next to my bag inside the gate. I had to stand on my quivering tip toes to get in the seat. With my heart beating out of my chest, the carnival worker buckled us in. Then the operator moved us up about ten feet. I wanted to shout down at them to lower us back down so I could get back to the earth. Adrenaline rushed, palms sweaty, my breath came out in quiet, rapid gasps. I had just opened my mouth to speak, but the worker beat me to

I was a little hesitant at first, but everyone convinced me to start off small. "We'll only get on the little rides if you want.", Emily said. "Yeah, we won't go on any of the big roller coasters unless you really want too.", Henry agreed. Feeling a little more at ease now, I agreed to get on the small rides. They were really fun and we were all having a great time. I kept looking up at the big rides and saw all the people getting on with big smiles and laughing. "What's the worst that can happen? I want to try to get on that one.", I said as I pointed at a yellow and blue roller

My artifact that shows my success is a cheer trophy that my team and I won in Vegas at a competition. The trophy is significant to me because it took a lot of hard work for our team to perform at this competition. Our team has never worked together so well and had more dedication than ever because that first place trophy is something we all wanted.

We got on the ride quickly there was no line and I was scared, like about to pee myself scared. We all got strapped/buckled in and the ride started, it started climbing the first hill to then drop us onto whatever came next.It seemed like

At the end, I realized that it wasn’t that scary, it was the best ride

We submitted our tickets and headed towards the most terrifying- edge- of- your- seat- roller coaster...Fahrenheit. This was the ultimate fear ride for me. Reason being, at that time I was scared of super tall roller coasters like that. My mom, brother, and I walked up to the line.

My life used to be great! I was the main attraction at Jerry’s Amusement Park. Everyone waited in line just to ride me. Everyone loved me because I was the tallest, fastest, and best looking roller coaster in the entire park. The other roller coasters were jealous that they didn’t get all the attention. I would remind them every day that I was the best roller coaster in the park. I had almost no friends because of that. Now, I’m ignored, forgotten, all alone, and left to rot. Just like the junk pile that is next to the park.

At some point in life everyone takes a ride on a roller coaster, most people don’t now where they come from and when they were invented, lets take a look to the origin and history of the roller coasters, the initiative for modern roller coasters is based in a very common kid’s attraction that you can find in any playground, the slide. During the 17th century Russian slides come to a whole new level across Russia, but they weren’t normal slides, they were ice slides. As the name says these slides were frozen over with ice and the riders were simply push down sitting on a matt adding some protection between the raider and the ice, and were tall wood structures.

My sister Jenny had just recently moved to Williamsburg from overseas, her oldest daughter Maddie was already back in school at Walsingham Academy but, her son Alex had yet to start school again so they went to Busch gardens. I got done with college early that day and went to join them at Busch gardens. It had been a little over a year since I had last seen them so I was excited to see them and ride some roller coasters.

It was a hot summer day, and I was eight years old. I went to Cedar Point for the first time. I remember the first coaster I ever rode was the Raptor. It was thrilling and I was a little scared on it, but after I got off, I felt like I was superior. I rode many more roller coasters, then we see the Top Thrill Dragster. The track was a bent oval and had a vertical rise and drop. It is very intimidating and I remember seeing an older lady praying before the ride took off. My aunt, uncle, and mom asked if I wanted to go on it with them, and I was a little hesitant. They told me it is okay if I’m scared, but I did not want to admit it. I had to make the decision quick and agreed to go on it. I was very nervous and my stomach started to hurt out of nowhere. About two hours later of waiting in line, it was our turn to get on. I got on a cart with my mom and my heart was beating like a crazed man banging on a door. I had fear mixed with excitement, but I was determined to ride the Top Thrill Dragster. After everyone was buckled in, the speakers in the platform started playing drag racing car

For many people, there is only one reason to go to an amusement park: the roller coaster. Some people call it the "scream machine," with good reason. The history of this ride reflects a constant search for greater and more death-defying thrills.

Roller coasters are classical examples of energy conversion when moving on smooth curves and loops of the track. At the end of the ride, it must be slowed down and brought to a stop at the station. In modern roller coasters, permanent magnets on the tracks induce currents in brakes as it moves past the brakes. The faster the roller coaster, the stronger the currents induced, and the stronger the braking force. The onset of the braking is smooth; as it enters the brakes which may have become more active. This, however, is in strong contrast to the sudden action of roller coaster brakes.

I remember looking up at the monstrous ride and hearing the ear-piercing screams coming from the people above me. Just the sight of it filled me with fright. As soon as my dad asked if I wanted to go on it, I gulped and put on a brave fearless face and said, “Yes”.
