As kids parents would take us to Crystal Beach Ontario. Us kids would get enough tickets to stay on the roller coaster for at least 6 or 8 rides. Two in the first row, two in the last row, switch until the operator would throw us off (so other people could have a chance), We’d get back in line and repeat. Went to Busch Gardens with friends who heard that story. They left me at the twisty turney nothing under your feet ride and went off to do something else.

I can’t do roller coasters anymore. My nausea doesn’t let me get yanked around.

Perhaps a good message for most, but not for trauma survivors.
