how to overcome fears of rollercoasters at thorpe park 

How i overcome my fear - go on the scariest rides first then da rest is nothing 😂😂😂😂

“Then you can go on smaller thrill rides like swarm” 😂😂

I went to thorpe park last year, never been on a roller coaster that went upside down before. Swarm was the first one I went on, and I loved it. As someone who never believed people when they said it was fine, I completely understand why you may not want to go on it when people ask you too. So, my best advice is, go when you feel like you are ready. I told myself I was ready beforehand and went on all of them by the end of the day. don't force yourself To go on it if you don't feel ready, and go at your own pace!

Very good video but aren’t nemesis Inferno and colossus thrill rides?

I'd say start by going on the biggest rides first, that is how I got over my fear of mine. Go on the scariest rides first, everything after that is a piece of cake compared to the first ones you have been on.

" Then you can go on smaller thrill rides like Collossus " **9 year old me casually chipping me PERMANENT tooth on that roller coaster** -

The walking dead one was actually really good for me to build my confidence, it doesn't go that fast

I just was to exited I went on Stealth first I regretted my decision 🤣

Bro really called rush a major thrill ride 💀💀💀💀

“Go on the smaller thrill rides, Nemesis Inferno, Colossus.. 😂

Thanks bro i shoulda watched this two days ago the first ride I went on was rush 😭 then vortex 😭 Then stealth 😭 needed to go pop before I got on saw after I didn't then lastly detonator I would want to go again without the need to go toilet

I remeber going on saw, swarm , nemesis inferno and stealth with my friends, it was year 6 at the time and I remember in swarm my friend was so excited he said he was about to swear lol

I just went straight on the steath bruv

I’m terrified of rides. I went to Thorpe park with my school once. Despite my fear I decided to go on rush as my first ride of the day.. I actually ended up enjoying it but I recommend warming up if you have a fear like me 😭

Hello There, a really helpful and useful technique, I totally agree it's all about starting small and then progressing from there to the larger attractions, thank you for sharing this, it's much appreciated. Cheers Peter :-)

thanks for this, very helpful

Thank you for saying this- I just went to Hershey park yesterday and I wanted to work my way up roller coasters but my friend kept pushing me to do the more intense ones, I felt even more nervous and ended up only doing 1 roller coaster. So 100% work your way up, it can help so much.

Smaller thrill rides- swarm colossus* So basically you count the smiler at Alton towers to be a smaller thrill, me too mate 😂

Trust me hated rollercoasters before today first thing swarm now I can’t get enough

istg my first theme park was thorpe park and i started with nemesis then went straight onto Saw 🤡

I got Thorpe park all the time but for some reason I had never been on saw and went on it last year for the first time. Definitely the most thrilling ride

This is gonna help me so much for when i go ty

I went on the sworm first…

The walking dead scared the hell out of me

The most intense ride at the park is Saw - The Ride!

Can you do one for Blackpool pleasure beach

Vortex hell nah 🤣 I ain't about to pass out again lol 😂

My first ever ride at Thorpe park was saw the ride, I loved it so much and just went on everything after that.

Very informative thank you

I would do one or two smaller ones, like the walking dead to get used to the feeling on a coaster and then go for stealth. After that you’ve been on the biggest one so the others will be more enjoyable. I also really recommend saw it’s so fun

I straight up went on nemesis inferno as my first ever rollercoaster then as my second stealth

I was petrified of coasters for years. I went on a school trip and couldn't bring myself to do any of them when I got home. I felt awful and and I vouched that I would go back the next year with my Mum (who was also scared of coasters) When i got in, I dragged (not physically) my mum to swarm, and since then, we've both been absolutely fine on everything. The moral of the story of you is that you are scared of the big rides and go on them first with someone else who is scared of them and I guarantee at the end yiu won't want to stop and you will have the bug for life

Bro really called the swarm a small thrill ride

Nemesis inferno is crazy intense, that should be at the end

My cousin just chucked me on colossus and now i love coasters so ig that works as well

“Yeah the walking dead isn’t too scary!” ME: BRO IM LITERALLY SCREAMING AND PEEING MYSELF

TYSM IM GOING THORPE PARK NEXT WEEK 😭

Blud really called colossus a “flat ride” - yeah tell that to the 10 loop tulips and corkscrews that thrash you around

Here are the rides you mentioned that I've been on: - The Walking Dead: The Ride (albeit only when it was X: No Way Out) - Flying Fish - Tidal Wave (don't forget your raincoat!) - Nemesis Inferno - Colossus (the very first roller coaster I went on that actually goes upside down) - The Swarm - Quantum (the very first ride at Thorpe Park I ever went on) - Rush - Stealth - Saw: The Ride (I don't think Grandma would like that) - Samurai There's no excuse for me not to go on the really big rides. I was in the CCF (RAF section) while at school, and did Air Experience Flying. This included aerobatics, so I'm used to G forces and going upside down.

To be honest Id actually go with Nemesis Inferno first. Its not quite as extreme as Saw, Stealth or even Swarm in terms of inversions, speed and height, but it pushes you out of your comfort zone whilst not being too long of a ride or being that uncomfortable. For all its flaws it is a solid starter coaster.

The only one I'd be doing is flying fish lmao 💀💀💀

Went the other day, never been on a rollercoaster before, swarm was my first lmao

When I went I went on colossus,swarm,saw,stealth and I was scared of them at the time

He sais u can go on the small 1's pov its stealth collosus nemesis

I used to be scared of roller coasters tull yesterday where I started on stealth and collosus

I just went from flying fish to saw

I went to thrope park just a few days ago... Went on every single ride and it was awesome (only 11 years old) ... Except for the saw... Your head gets bashed a lot in it. My favourite ride was the swarm and it is not that scary to he honest... Once you go on it once u don't want to stop loll Disclaimer: You will get ABSOLUTELY SOAKED on the tidal wave ride so.... Andd it's cold water 😭😭 I was lucky enough to be staying for 2 days so I went to my cabin to dry off! Ps: this is all my opinion so take what you want from it but either way there is something for everyone there and I hope you really do have fun if you go to thrope park

Not me yesterday gling on stealth then rush then saw

When I first went there I went on stealth straight away

My first ever roller coaster was on a school trip to Thorpe park. I went on stealth, and I got whiplash-

Omg I went to Thorpe park and went on all of them :)) but the first ride I went one was colossus but I do not recommend that as a first one but still it was amazing 🤩

Here's the best way, nemesis is the best to go on first. Then swarm. And collossus. And on saw, you can lock your seatbelt to the point you can't move, I did that and had the hands way up lol. But for stealth if you're small.and skinny, it will hurt.

i just went straight on swarm and the rest was history

Just gone started on stealth-as no queue!! But my first ever rollercoaster 🎢

I went on saw straight away

What I done is if it’s the inversions you don’t like them go to Chessington WOA and do Mandrill Mayhem since it has one inversion and not too intense and it lets you know what it feels like then go to Thorpe park if you get there early right when the park opens, run to swarm and then go to Nemesis,then Colossus,then Saw, and then get fast tracks for Stealth and for the end of the day, Tidal Wave You can go on the other Rides like Rush,Vortex,Zodiac etc while you’re having a little break or just don’t wanna queue for ages 👍 That’s what I done to get over my rollercoaster fear 👌

I was at Thorpe park today and I went on nemesis 5 times it’s my fav

I started on swarm, didnt regret it

First ride I went in was Oblivion when I was 10 years old. I was very slightly shorter than the required height so wore shoes that added a couple inches 🤣

colossus starter 💀

Stealth is a good starter ride for kids, then you can make your way up to flying fish

Did he just saw that swarm is a small thrill ride. It is debatably scarier than stealth

for me i just went on the scariest ones first and that overcame my fear

I did the exact opposite, went to the biggest first and after that nothing is scary after that you seek and even bigger adrenaline rush every time.

I went to Thorpe park today for the first time and swarm was the first one I went on 🙃

How I overcame my fear: I didn’t want to embarrass myself so I forced myself to go on velocicoaster at IOA and now I can ride anything.

You know when you said walking dead my sister went on that and the flashlight touched her she said”I can punch you if I want”

I had a fear of roller coasters. I wanted to go on wickerman but it was closed so my first rollercoaster was the smiller

I am going soon so I can’t wait to try this

my first time there was today, never been on a looping or any sort of upside down coatser, started on the swarm and the. conquered the rest

I went back in July and I had never been on a big rollercoaster before as I was only 11 at the time and the first ride I went on was swarm. So just do what I did go on the big ones first

I overcame my fear by just going on a scary roller coaster with my sister I was like craping my pants in the queue but I didn’t say anything and then after the ride I was completely fine 😂😂

Me: mum dad I'm gonna go on rush My friends: what about swarm Me: OH HELL NAHHHHH

The scariest thing about there saw is the line 😂

I had such a big fear of them and then the first one I went on after 3-4 years was saw which is like the end of ur list 😂

If you are ever scared of roller coasters what ended my fear was when I was at alton towers I just went straight on nemesis

the 1st Nemesis was from Alton towers i went there yesterday but the Nemesis is getting upgraded there

Once I got over my fear of rollercoasters I got a fear of fair rides. Yeah rollercoasters look scary but they have dedicated teams of highly trained people to run them. Fairs have a drunk with a wrench

Dollywood next please

I’ve been on every ride stealth saw an swarm are the best

I went on detonator and I was confident to go in swarm after until I was levitating from my chain from the drop of detonator. I lost my confidence 💔

How I overcame my fear: my dad told me to “just go on rip ride rock it! I promise you’ll love it” It was one of the biggest rides at universal! I went on it and the rest of the big rides were a breeze and I love coasters now

First ride we went on was stealth and we worked out way downwards 😂

This was the opposite for me recently I went tk Thorpe Park for a school trip and the first ride they made us go on was rush and then stealth 😂😂😂😂I think it was good thought because after that I wasn't scared of any of the others 😂😂😂

I went straight to stealth today or was closed so I did Nemsis first time here I did all the big rides so the rest felt like nothing

Epic.

I wouldn’t recommend going on tidal wave first bc you’ll be all wet for when u go on the other rides

Do you have one for silver wood?

I'd say nemesis inferno and maybe colossus should be in the top tier while stealth isn't that intimidating.

Just go on one or two easy rides to build up trust in restraints and whatever, then send it for something intimidating. Worked for me and works with everyone else I try with lol

My freind just made me go on Colossus first and then stealth so I wasnt scared after that

Do hershy park :)

IM GONNA DO THIS GUYS IM GONNA GET OVER IT 💪💪💪

I've been on a slightly bigger model of stealth and it looks like a kids ride ITS NOT!!! Those things are terrifying. If you want a good scare I would recommend a lot!

As soon I arrive I went to the SAW 😂😂

My dad was on stealth twice yesterday it’s actually not that bad

Umm can j go on hyperia yet Ive already been on it but still love it

THE WALKING, DEAD NOT TO SCARY! Na the end with the actors is horrifying

I went from walking dead to nemsis 😆

I'm 12 and even tho I was super scared I just full sended straight to saw
