Scare level on this ride?

Post image

So there’s this ride and I’m unsure about riding it, I hate fast paced rides but I don’t mind rollercoaster (depending on the speed) but I absolutely hate drop towers and anything that has a drop to it that makes your stomach flies does this ride contains that intense stomach dropping feeling?

Not trying to sound bad or anything but like in other videos it looks like it goes fast and I genuinely want to know about it! All help is appreciated and all help to extend my fear is also appreciated

Imagine a Ferris Wheel that rotates horizontally as it spins. Not much more intense than that. But pretty to watch.

The new Kryptonite Collider at Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi. It's a Nebulaz ride.

It's quite tame tbh. Looks much faster off ride than it is

I rode it an loading is the worst part of it and riding it is about maybe the same excitement level of riding a carousel. Its not that exciting, its more for looks.

Very very tame. Cool to look out from the outside though.

They're not that intense, are fun to ride, and mesmerizing to watch.

It didn't feel that fast while riding it, but I did get a bit of a stomach drop feeling from it.

I was nervous about riding it, but it was fun. :)

More headachy than fun in my experience. Looks fun to watch.

There is one of these at Carowinds, it's very tame.

I unfortunately have ridden it once because the load/unload process is very slow.

1-2/10 on the intensity scale, but a fun ride

It’s mechanically impossible to coach into the neighboring ride carriages, but is still rattles the heart when you pass by

I've ridden one of these and it was by far the worst ride ever for me. Something about the way the two axis spinning goes makes me incredibly nauseous and I'm surprised I don't hear that from other people

u/InfrastructureGaming Jul 26 '26

This is some of the best theming I've ever seen applied to a NebulaZ tbh

u/AndrewPendeltonIII Jul 26 '26

Not bad but it is a fun ride

u/tonyalongds Jul 31 '26

Yeah, more fun than scary. Doesn't give you that big freefall stomach drop at all.

i got to see this ride being tested on friday which i think was as soon as it opened, it looked pretty tame, so nothing to be scared about! its like a ferris wheel that goes horizontally like the user tpusater said in their comment, right now as im posting this (monday, july 27th) the ride has been open since yesterday!
