have you ever been on a ferris wheel??

there are different rides here too since it's summer. when i was a kid im fond of having those rides in a carnival. but there was one instnace when one of the rides accidentally fell off and it scared us all a lot. since then we were not allowed by our parents to have these rides.

I used to go on them all the time when I was a kid. About 3 years ago I was away for the weekend with my daughter and we were at an amusement park. I went on the giant ferris wheel with her and some friends and it was not a pleasant experience. I basically had a major panic attack and it was so frightening! It was nighttime which never had scared me in the past but the seat was moving around and the ride kept stopping to let people on and off. It was torture! I never considered myself to be afraid of heights but I guess people change! never ever again will I go on one.

yes, I had often experienced riding on the feris wheel when I was younger. I can vividly remember the last ferris wheel ride I went on. My beloved and I had taken a trip to a large amusement park for a weekend.... there is was, tall and lovely all lit up against the night sky. It was such a romantic gesture that the two of us would lull about on the swaying seats gently rocking as the ferris wheel made its graceful rotations.... THEN we were at the top..... and ZAP ZING lightening was striking! thankfully it did not strike the ride - but it sure was close and we could not get off that contraption fast enough.

Yes I've been on a ferris wheel a number of times and would again in a heart beat! Although I'm very fearful of heights, the view that you get to see when at the top really takes your breath away and very much worth the while to do it. I would take a paper bag with you as well as a plastic one just in case you get sick but you really should be ok and you won't ever forget it.

I'd been in a ferris wheel when I was on my 2nd year high school. I am with my classmate, perhaps she noticed I was so uneasy that she kept on talking to me, just to divert my attention with other things. I felt my intestines are turning upside down and am just so restless waiting for it's another cycle. Thanks God I was able to finish the time due and promise myself I won't ever try riding the ferris wheel again.

Hello! I have been on a Ferris Wheel once, and it was horrible. Just like in every story, the Ferris wheel broke down while we were riding it, and we were stuck there for 2 hours! It was terrible. I never went on another Ferris Wheel after that again!

I've been on the "London Eye" wheel,and most recently on the "Belfast Wheel" here in Northern Ireland..I like them for the views you can get out over the surrounding area and for peoplewatching close by..

I've been on it a several times. The biggest one was in America in six flags great adventure. It was crazy to see all those giant rollercoasters around and the tallest one in the world- kingda ka was just sticking up above the all and it was much bigger than the ferries wheel.

Yes, I have been on a ferris wheel. It's been a while, though. I haven't been on a ferris wheel, since I was a kid. I vaguely remember going on it, and such. I think that I might do it again, but I'm really not sure, because I feel uncomfortable around heights.

Yes...many times already. I love riding ferris wheel. Unlike others who are afraid of height, I love riding ferris wheel since this is the only way I can be as high as possible from the ground. I love high places. Sometimes, in a building, I will go on a rooftop just to see things around me and being in a ferris wheel enables me to do it. Buildings in my place is not really that high and has no rooftop so I take the opportunity to ride ferris wheel to enjoy the beauty around me. Security is an issue for me whenever riding a ferris wheel so I only ride those that has been tested to be secure and cannot be dis-assemble.

Yes, I've been on a ferris wheel a few times in my life. But I haven't been on one since I was a kid though. Actually, believe it or not, there's not any around where I live to get on anyway. Unless the circus comes to my town which isn't very often. But I do remember liking it when I was a kid.

I can remember riding with my mom and brother at the church carnavils when I was little in the summer. It was fun I just hated when the seat we in rocked back and forth it scared me.

Yes,I have, and I loved it. Many people don't like the ferris wheel because, like you said, they are afraid of heights. But for me, it is very relaxing. I like it best when I'm on the top because then I could feel the cool breeze and see lots of things underneath me. Of course, it all depends on the ferris wheel that you ride.

I have been on a ferris wheel before even though I am a little bit scared of heights. There was this one time when I went on some rocking cabin on the ferris wheel and this ride was too much for me. It made me feel nauseous with all those furious swaying back and forth. I had no choice but to endure it for about twenty minutes before the ride eventually finished. It was a miracle I did not puke in the cabin or else the people waiting in line would be disgusted and a whole lot of problesm would arise. I think I will just stick with the normal kind of ferris wheel from now on.

I go to carnival but i had never been to a ferris wheel. I rode a roller coaster, some river log, flying carpet but i have never rode a ferris wheel. The last time i went to star city one of the well know amusement park here in the Philippines, there is a long line for the ferris wheel ride and then it is my turn to try the ride for the first time, unfortunately, it began to rain and ride was closed for security purpose. After then until now i haven't rode a ferris wheel.

Oh, yes!I love to ride a ferris wheel. I used to ride one every time I went to the fair or any amusement park for that matter. I still like to ride one occasionally but I can't afford to spend much money these days. I like the way they light up the sky at night. I remember I rode the ferris wheel at the amusement park on the miracle strip down in Panama City, Florida the year I graduated high school. It stopped on the top with me and I had the most beautiful view of the ocean from up there!
