Mine are the River Rapids rides, like Thunder River at Six Flags over Georgia in Atlanta or Popeye & Bluto's River Raft Barges at Islands Of Adventure in Orlando.

The Scrambler and the Spider or Octopus thingy, I'm not sure what it's called. Roller Coasters scare the crap out of me  :o And of course I love the good old Merry Go Round!  :D

At a general amusement park or carnival, my favorite rides have been the carousel (aka merry-go-round) and Ferris wheel (which I didn't wanna ride in until age 9 because I used to be afraid of heights). At theme parks, I like mostly water rides. I don't really like rollercoasters because they go too fast, but also because many of them go upside-down (something I've never been a fan of). However, when I was a senior in high school, our senior class went on a picnic to Six Flags Magic Mountain, and my friends convinced me that the fast rollercoasters that didn't go upside-down would not be so bad. So we all went on Colossus together, and the first drop actually scared the heck out of me. But I enjoyed the ride overall.

I pretty much like anything, even though I'm scared of many of them now - especially the ones that either move fast or go upside down. The older I've gotten, the less I can take, LOL.

When I went to Disneyland in '98 (age 16) I was -- as my friends describe -- "screaming like a little girl" on Space Mountain. But I still liked it! ;D

But I like roller-coasters and even simplistic ones like FerrisWheels.

Same here. I am deathly afraid of heights. I was on the ferris wheel with my niece 2 summers ago and was a nervous wreck. Holding the bars and closing my eyes. She loved the ride. I must of looked foolish sitting beside her.  ;D 

I also hate the feeling of butterflies that some rides give you. Amusement rides..I will pass.

I like the rollercoasters and the Pirate Ship (which is like a giant swing, and the best seats are the ends, because they go the highest)  I really don't like ferris wheels because when they stop the wheel to let people on or off, the seat rocks and that makes me nervous.

Anything Fast and spinning...especially this thing

On hot days, the operator will hang you upside down while huge water jets soak you. My voice is still recovering from all the screaming I did.

Tilt-A-Whirl is my  all time favorite ride.  Second would be rollercoasters, especially those with loops.
