Just watching those vids makes me a little sick.
I am a total wuss when it comes to these. I have zero tolerance, even on a small one I feel so awful I just want to get off. This is also wasted on me because I close my eyes and scream, so I'm not even looking.
That Voyage thing is fucking scary. It's interesting when it goes into the darkness the first time...I actually jumped there. Would be an interesting concept, a roller coaster in total darkness. Now that would be mega awful.
I have no idea why I can't enjoy them at all, they just scare the crap out of me. My body has no tolerance for that kind of thing. I read once that some people have a higher need for adrenaline than others. I guess I must not need much at all.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
