Probably Woody's Clown Coaster at Funlands Hayling Island..... but then it is intended for 5 year olds.

Daft topic.

Not really a daft topic?

The most pointless ride I've ever been on was Southport's ghost train.

There was nothing in it.

I think the worst one I have been on is Littehamptons Ghost train which is ****. You basically go up a lift inside, there are a few flashing lights and then drop down this hill and then go back inside to some more flashing lights and then that is it! The outside looks really good and very well themed, but this inside is just crap!

Spooky 3D at Oakwood.

It's terrible. The only reason for the 3D goggles is to hide the horrific qualtiy of the ride.

Still, it's fun.

The Squirrel Nutty Ride at Alton Towers. It's intened for toddlers, But even they look as if they're about to nod off on it.
 
I don't think we should be mentioning kiddie coasters in this topic, because I don't think that's fair. Of course we're not going to like kiddie rides, because we're not five years old.

Runaway Mine Train at Six Flags Great Adventure would probably have to be one of the worst coasters I have been on that's over the classification of "kiddie coaster". It was super short, had like, one little turn, and then a bump, and then another little turn, and then it was done. I waited fifteen minutes for that thing too!

Ok then I'll change mine to X:/No Way Out. Not only is the 1.4 restriction too high, it was the most pointless ride ever and just didn't do anything for me.

Well Tommy, not to pick on ya, but I do hate when people say that the "height restrictions are too high", or a coaster is "over supported". I don't think that parks would really place a height restriction that was higher than necessary on a ride; I mean, what would it do to benefit them? It would mean less riders, in the grand scheme of things. Same with being over supported. It may look like there are too many supports on a coaster, but each and every one has a job to do. They wouldn't just pay extra money to throw in a few supports here and there for no reason!

Believe me, it happens. There is no way that Rattlesnake at Chessington needs to have a 1.4m height limit when the mirrored clone at Flamingo Land can operate with a 1.2m limit. Some parks are just far too conservative.

A didy coaster for kids at a fair 10 ft off ground max with a 5 ft min and a track length of less then 80ft. I as wayy to big to go on it but i still forced my legs in to get a cc. Way too many bruises afterwards!

I believe Rattlesnake's height limit was increased shortly after opening...

I don't think it's to do with conservatism (if that's a word), but more likely risk assessments being done by the H&S or stuff changing due to issues on the ride... For example NWO's limit will stay high because of that kid who fell out (due to his own stupidity yes, but H&S and Tussauds (as it was then) don't put the stupidity of people into the calculations)...

Onto the actual debate, I'd like to put Kumali up there... It's just way, way too short and literally did nowt for me...

Also Colossus, since it now needs to sell aspirin in the shop... :roll:

reason: if we all say the worst coasters that we've been on then we know that we shouldn't waste 45 **** minutes waiting for a **** ride ok?
