Is it normal to be scared of roller coasters?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, it’s completely normal to be scared of roller coasters. The height, speed, drops, and feeling of not being in control can be thrilling for some people and genuinely frightening for others.
Roller coasters are designed to make your body feel like it’s in danger, even when the ride is operating safely. So it makes sense if the steep drops, loud noises, or anticipation set off a real fear response. Lots of people don’t enjoy them, even if their friends do.
You don’t have to ride one to prove anything. It’s fine to sit it out, or try a smaller ride only if you actually want to—not because someone’s pressuring you.
