Top 10 Scariest Rides in the World (2022)

That Ride is now iconic but sad about what happen to the boy.

[@elizabethdumont6650]

First and foremost the few in these comments are rediculous. Laughing about a 14 year old boy falling to his death and to the girl that is blaming a child. Man you people have lost your minds. I seriously wish nothing this tragic ever happens to a child in your family and then you have to deal with ignorant people like yourselfs. Get a damn life and stop trolling the internet and being despicable human beings...

[@valmacclinchy]

@@Kment011 I believe that ride should be torn down. Looking at pictures of the young man who died, seated, ready to go, comparing his restraint to others on the ride.. This was obviously negligence, by both the ride manufacturer and the park. Restraint on the ride is horribly designed. It should have either shoulder restraints which cover the whole torso and lock between the rider's legs, or it should've had a backup seat belt at the waist area. The operators of the ride claim the light was on, which meant the mechanism was locked and presumably secure. Looking at the photos, anyone can tell that young man wasn't secure. RIP young man 💔🙏

[@theoriginalThud]

I've been to the Stratosphere in Vegas and I can confirm that those three rides are some of most terrifying rides I've ever ridden. X-Scream and Insanity are the two most extreme since they dangle you over the edge about 900 feet from your certain death if something were to go a bit wrong. What makes Insanity worse is that it stops spinning and dangles you at an angle facing slightly face down well over the edge while they load and unload the seats across from you. This torture, which only takes a few minutes, seemingly takes hours while your heart races, your arms turn numb and your sweat drips down from your forehead stinging your eyes because you're too scared to let go of your grip to wipe your brow. ...and then the ride starts to wobble as riders are unloaded and reloaded making it feel like the ride is going to come unhinged and send you down nearly 1000 feet below on your last drop ride of your life. ..Having said that, I ended up loving the rides and rode them all multiple times. A must add-on to your bucket list. ..and make sure to ride X-Scream in the very front!

[@popmusiclover1000]

Oh come on lol I’ve done all of them at The Strat too and they aren’t that bad… 😂

I was at icon park with my son in October last year. I’m actually really glad he was only 3 at that time, and he can’t ride the really scary ones. I just feel so bad for the child who lost his life there a few months later. It’s so scary how quickly life can end.

[@k.hendrickson8735]

Clearly, no one has bothered to read the article about the CAUSE of the freak accident in FL. The ride was safe. The “child” weighed almost 400 pounds! Never, ever should have gotten on it in the first place. It’s sad, and unfortunate. But there’s Plenty of blame to go around. And a big share goes squarely on parents that allow their children to get that fat.

[@atalleywak]

I've always considered bungee rides to be the most intense, such as the Slingshot, or bungee jumping by your ankles. For me, the reason is because the g-forces and speeds are so intense compared to coasters. That, and either the sky or the ground is rushing towards you. Even skydiving was peaceful and serene compared to standing on a platform and jumping off with a bungee cord on my ankles.

[@TCFan25]

Compared to skydiving, bungee jumping is much more dangerous and ultimately unsafe - esp considering it can be set up anywhere with rather minimalist equipment.

[@BladesThomas]

I’ve been on the Orlando Starflyer, Freefall (RIP to Tyree) and The Skycoaster. There used to be one more ride on the Stratosphere (Strat) but it was taken down in 2005. It was a roller coaster that went around the circumference of the top of the building, just under the tower on top of it. I went on that one too. I think it was called High Roller.

Starflyers scare the crap out of me. I think it's the size of the chains holding the seats. They look like a child's necklace. Contrast that with the industrial appearing chains on regular spinning swings and it just short circuits my brain. I still do them out of some weird desire for thrills but I'm terrified the entire time. I want to make it to the Stratosphere at some point but I can imagine that'll be an anxiety inducing experience.

[@XOYamiOX]

I'm glad you put Wasuzan Highland on the list I went there a few times growing up and man not only was the stairs to even get up to the Sky Cycle ride insane, once you get on it its a scary as hell rusty track over a massive cliff HAHA. The other steel coaster that went around the peak was also scary as hell and quite a rough ride despite the track itself being tame.

[@avery6248]

As someone who’s been to the strat and is also an adrenaline junkie, here’s what I’ll say: The drop at the strat is fun, but way to short. Go on it once to say you went on it, but there are definitely better rides out there. Insanity is super fun, and surprisingly quite peaceful. I went on it with my bff 3 times, and we both loved it. You get a really nice breeze on that one. X-Scream is very fun, but I’d suggest getting a front seat. I went on it twice - the first time I was in the front, and it was a great experience. I was in the second row on the second time I did it and it was still cool, but definitely a different experience. But to add two that aren’t on this list, I would add the Hyperion in Energylandia (Poland) and the Slingshot in Coney Island (NY). They might not be in the top 10, but definelty in the top 20 - both are super thrilling and fun.

[@crackerjackrappr]

My local theme park has a slingshot. I've done it once and won't again. Lol. Super fun, but 1 time is enough for me.

I've been to the Strat Hotel in Las Vegas and rode the Insanity ride, the two other rides mentioned in the video were closed for the day while I was there. Honestly, the Insanity ride lasts only two minutes long and for the first 20 seconds you feel like you're going to plummet to your death but after the initial shock is over it's kinda nice hanging in the air, you get a really good view of the city. I would definitely recommend it to anyone! Wish I could have ridden the other rides too.

It’s been nearly a decade since I went to Vegas and rode the three rides. Insanity was so much fun but X Scream was hands down the winner though.

Starflyer is lots of fun but it does play with my head a little. I still kick my legs and have my arms up but deep in my mind I hear “it’s going to break”

The scariest ride that I've been on was The Joker at Six Flags Great Adventure. It's a one-and-done for me since I don't ride rides to get scared but to have fun. Most roller coasters don't scare me, but S&S Free Spins do. I just don't enjoy feeling out of control.

The view of the gorge in my opinion makes the whole ride worth it, no matter how tall it is or the length of the drop. It takes your breath away if it’s still there.

[@bubzilla6137]

Regarding number 3: You said that it's actually more freaky on the side where you're facing the sky rather than the one facing down toward the canyon. I can confirm this is a legit thing. I used to climb radio towers for a living and a few years ago I just quit climbing cellphone towers. The highest tower I climbed was 1,000 feet. On every tower though, getting to the top, I would look up and the butterflies would hit. Looking down never did anything for me. I think it's because when looking down, I can see the ground. It may be far away, but it's clearly there and measurable. Looking up, I see how close I am to the clouds or the cloudless sky, often I was above the lowest layer of cloud. That somehow is way more freaky... 🗼🗼🗼

Why am I doing this and how long is this stupid thing?!” I skipped adrenaline and went straight to questioning my life choices.

[@dustinshanewheatley]

Good vid bruh! Enjoyed the commentary too!

[@lorenlio]

I'm with you on the star flyers. I will ride them everytime but I am always scared. To me insanity is way scarier than xscream...but both made Mr hesitate getting on lol

[@kimradford4280]

I was at the Strat a couple mo ths ago and gotta admit I was freaked out just looking at those 3 rides and that jump! No way could I find the courage to try them...and I love thrill rides! Thanks for sharing your awesome pics. A couple of things I thought I'd mention...that attraction at Old Town in Kissimmee (the one over water)...there's a gator or 2 in there! I visited last year and saw them myself, as I watched people on that drop. The other mention I have is the suspension bridge in Gatlinburg. If you haven't tried it...you should. It's not a ride, but definitely an experience (day or night)!

[@erichoss4218]

Thanks! I've been waiting for this list for a few months ever since you told me in the comments you were going to do it. X-scream #1 really? Honestly this is the 1st time your #1 ride I didn't even expect to make the list. I was in the front 3 times and found it almost boring. Now as for the Sky Jump........that was next level!! Only 4 weeks after Vegas I went to Orlando for all the small attractions including the skycoaster in Kissimmee and the Starflyer(before the drop tower). I was on a role. I found the Skyjump the scariest of all, but the skycoaster was more fun. The others all failed in comparison.

[@inkeddog]

Great video! I used to love coasters and drops when I was under 30 yrs old. Now, watching some of these, my knees got a little weak. Kudos to ANYONE who can ride those on top of the Strat. I couldn't even go up to the very top. Too chicken.

[@TaraEllisBooks]

I just did all the rides at the Strat last month (November 2022). LOVED the big shot for the free-fall experience and how the height messes with your head. Rode it several times. I only rode Insanity once because it spins so fast that I didn't find it enjoyable. I couldn't focus on anything and it triggered some vertigo. The end is really the only part I found somewhat scary when you're left hanging out after it stops spinning to slowly swing you back it. I think it would be a lot scarier and more enjoyable if it rotated slowly. X-Scream was by far my favorite. I sat in the front (arms in the air) and rode it six times. (hardly anyone else was up there that night) It really does mess with your head. You KNOW you aren't going to fall, but the way it's done, you have a hard time overriding that instinct.

[@KremitDeFrog]

surprisingly enough, the high roller can also render that same feeling X-Scream gave you.. the certainty that you can trust it, but the inability to yield to that fact.. one spot on that track where you come up an incline with some decent speed and hit a hard, flat (non-banked) right turn just as you finish the incline.. so the cart wants to keep going straight with it's momentum but the track makes it do a hard right (emphasis on hard as there is a decent physical jolt with the transfer of momentum to the rails).. IDK, maybe it's just me, but I couldn't help think that it's good for 9,999 times.. it's that 10,000th one I don't want to bee on.. I mean OceanGate made it down to the Titanic half a dozen times before it was no longer safe enough..

[@k.hendrickson8735]

A team of scientists should study the brains of you adrenaline junkies…. Before, then after, the rides. Humans are the only animals on earth that like to get scared on purpose! 😯😵‍💫

[@aaron.0303]

I rode X-Scream at the Stratosphere in the front seat by myself at night in 2017! I think I was the only person on the ride. People watching asked me, "weren't you scared?" I kinda was. The first time I went to the Strat in 2005 I was brave enough to ride Insanity and the Big Shot but too scared to ride the X-Scream! It's definitely freaky. I think it's more intimidating to watch than to ride, but that's me.

[@toriandkatfaventti]

OMG I LOVE THE ORLANDO STARFLYER!!! ITS THE BEST!!!

[@karma868]

I remember when I was seven I went to the stratosphere with my family. Only rode one ride at the top and it was the X-scream. I rode it the first time with my dad in the farthest seat. I really enjoyed the ride so I rode it two more times by myself. I remember I did go in the front seat one of those times. I would still do it again if I had the chance 😂

[@CoasterCreationTV]

This will probably become Coaster Studios' most viewed video.

[@rosco8453]

agreed

[@vickanid1862]

In NZ, South Island near Queenstown is a canyon ride a bit like the Terror Dactyl. Except, they put you in a harness and drop you roughly 200 feet straight down before you swing 1/4 mile or so over the canyon. That initial drop is pure free fall...in just a harness! Scared my wife just watching me do it!

[@skull1cat]

Bro snuck an ad in there

[@vfxman31]

I’ve ridden all 3 rides at the top of the stratosphere. Once. You are absolutely right. They are terrifying and rides don’t scare me. I actually thought I was going to die on X Scream. You’re hanging on the edge and then it lets you go a little more. Like maybe it’s breaking. I’ve never been so terrified. Like you said ..a psychopath designed it!

[@rachaelrichardson568]

Wow thank you for showing me friend your videos. We loves rides just not being on them!! Keep showing your fans your dedication to fearlessness.

[@katm6620]

The Terror-Dactyl is actually really fun. The only part that sucks is when they first drop you - they slowly tilt you to an almost 90° angle so that you're leaning against only the straps. After the initial drop, which is fun, it's just a gorgeous swing through a canyon. I've done it at least 3 times and the adrenaline part is fun, but it's honestly one of the most relaxing rides I've done. I love it.

[@k.hendrickson8735]

[@TheGreenGamerOfc]

8:36 i went to the strat yesterday, hoping to go on either x-scream or insanity but both of them were closed. Only got to go on Big Drop

[@Joemama..]

This video was posted a day before one of these rides tragically killed a 14 year old boy

[@schworgis8951]

Dang this video aged like milk. There was an accident at the drop tower

[@valmacclinchy]

Yes, a 14 year old fell to his death. The people who included it should at least do an update addressing it, a tribute to that teen. RIP young man 💔🙏

[@RazPower1]

I did the groönalond atractions and i did the biggest atraction of that time in 2017 and was 121 meters tall so like over 400 feets

[@TheAnimatorOfficial]

So uhh…the icon park drop tower actually killed someone today

[@Godbrand]

as someone who is too scared to go on roller coasters, i can assure this guy knows what he's talking about and these are the scariest rides i'll never go on.

[@chrissharples6542]

Don't know about you guys, but The Big one at Blackpool, UK, to me is the scariest I have been on. I was sat on the right side of the car, nothing but a drop is all I could see. My anxiety was through the roof going up the chain hill. The ride itself was cool, it was just that initial climb.

[@AutumnK]

I went to Glenwood Caverns last year and rode the Giant Canyon Swing (#3) several times because there was no line. (Sometimes the employees wouldn't even make me get off to ride again.) It was so fun! And he's right in the video: I thought sitting on the side that looks straight down the canyon would be scarier, but it was exponentially scarier to be on the side where you see the edge of the cliff coming and then suddenly the ground is gone! It was terrifying, but I would do it again. 😁 And I have been to the top of the Stratosphere in Vegas for the rides. The Big Shot (#7) was so fun! I did it repeatedly until they closed for the night. I wanted to ride Insanity (#4), but it was closed that day. 😟 And I waited in line for the X-Scream (#1), but after watching it for a while, I decided it was too scary for me and left the line. That is the only time in my 38 years that I have chickened out of a ride.

That was the cleanest sponsor switch ever lol

[@YourLocalTauruss]

To be honest, one of the most fun but insane rides I've ever been on had to be Drayton manors roller coaster (the green one in corby) or their massive swing thing. That swing thing I had to go on at least 6-9 times unroll I finally got bored of it 💀 I really do recommend going there, it's so fun

[@blind_t2]

IDK if it’s gonna seem terrifying to others, but to me, it was. however, before it got taken out and replaced, the hammerhead at Knotts berry farm was thee most scariest ride to me! 1, overhead/shoulder bars, then 2, that flip. once you get flipped over, that front flip make you feel like you were gonna have that bar snap off, and you drop to your death.
