I don't want to go to Alton Towers now :(

It shouldn't matter if they make you feel sick, that's just the thrill of it - it's all fun.

Well if you're scared of heights instead of going on roller coasters how about go on the tea cups or something?
That's why we seize the moment, try to freeze it and own it, squeeze it and hold it cause we consider these minutes golden.

The merry go round sounds good too, or the farris wheel?

Roller Coasters are nothing to worry about, it is very slim chance anything bad will happen. If Rollercoasters were so dangerious then they would not be around. Rollercoasters are quick and fun and you hardly feel sick, I think you would feel much sick going on a tea cups ride than a rollercoaster

If you've got a fear of going on a rollercoaster, going to a theme park is perhaps not the best idea..

Oh dear, I think your friends are exaggerating slightly, sure the rides are fast, they are also quite exciting and they don't always make you feel sick. Fear does that or stuffing your face with too much food before you go on the rides, so instead of working yourself up into a frenzy just go and enjoy the rides. If you see a ride you don't fancy, sit it out. Just enjoy the day, Alton Towers is amazing

You shouldn't be afraid of feeling sick either, not everyone feels sick from then and even if you do, you sit down for 10 minutes drink some water and then go on another mint ride. Just go

Roller Coasters run continuously all day at theme parks. Some theme parks are really old too. Do you think the roller coasters would still be allowed to run if they were dangerous or unsafe?
If you're having doubts and really want to settle your nerves, ask to see the certificate of the ride which basically says it's a registered ride.
I have been going on coasters since I was tall enough, and love every single one. You don't know if you like it until you try it.

Theres a small roller coaster called The Run Away Mine Train or something, go on that, and if you like that, move to Air. If you like that, move to Rita.
After that Spinball, Nemesis and Oblivion.
Oh, and if you want to go on the oldest roller coaster and come off with a head ache, Corkscrew.
If you don't go on them, you will be bored for about 1 hour in the Ques
