    2nd ride I ever rode in my life. Not just SDC but anywhere
    Fire in the Hole was my first.
    I was only 4 and I screamed and cried like a baby

      I was told when I was riding it that the spayers coming out of the first dark area didn't always shut off. Of course they do but people were trying to mess with me.

      In my opinion, the record now belongs to a better ride. Though, then again, I am biased towards big rollercoasters, so… I know not everyone will agree.

    I remember riding this when i was 10 with my parents and brother.
    (Note: I was like 86 pounds at the time.)
    My parents forced me on and I was like "Whatever. It's just a log ride with a drop" So I got on and i think i sat between my mom and my dad.
    I was just looking around until the drop. And when the drop did come, I realized that the grip handles were very wet and it was hard to get a good grip. I started to panic trying to find a good grip before the drop came. So I just held on to my dad and pushed my feet as hard as i could against the foot holders. During the drop. I could feel myself lifting from my seat slightly. I screamed my little butt off during the rest of the ride until the ride ended.
    Never riding again. Even if I weigh more now.

      it is one of the most intense log flumes out there, however you do not get that soaked compared to Snake River Falls, that one is like Niagra falls

    I rode this ride once and never vowed to never ride it again. I thought everything was just fine when I took off, but when I saw us pulling into the tunnel where the hill started my heart dropped and I moved into the very back of the tube, and I just held on tightly. I closed my eyes and we went over the hill. it felt like we lost gravity for a sec then we got to the bottom within 2 seconds. Still terrifying!

      @t5thetraveler  11 месяцев назад

      I agree, I can remember being on ride and thinking oh boy, what am I going to talk about so this long tunnel is not awkward for everyone, I should have prepared something, I had no idea it was that long, defiantly wouldn't want to get stuck in there and have to walk back out

    This log ride gets you SOAKED. I way prefer the one at Dollywood because as long as you dont sit in the front it gets you just the right amount of wet to cool you off
