It doesn\u2019t happen often but when it does it\u2019s the best feeling. Going through the exit with little to no words to say as you\u2019ve just been blown away, is a fab feeling. But here\u2019s 3 rides which have done exactly that to us. We\u2019d love to know yours as well!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Wickerman – Alton Towers:<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

We all remember the snowy opening day right? Well we booked a day off in the hope of catching a soft opening & we got lucky. I had fairly low expectations of this coaster even though I was hyped for it. I remember hitting the brake run of the first ride and I just couldn\u2019t find the words to describe how much I enjoyed it. It had blown me away. It was everything & more than I ever had expected and I just felt so surprised by it. Who knew it was going to ride THAT<\/strong> good??\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Red Force – PortAventura World:<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Honestly, it\u2019s a beast! The roaring sound off ride alone makes the waiting to ride quite intimidating. Then looking up at the height made me very scared. But I kept thinking of Stealth as it was the only thing I have to compare it to. Wow, it blew Stealth out of the water. That launch is like no other we\u2019ve experienced. The pure intensity is immense. It was everything I had hoped it to be but a lot more too.\"\" <\/span><\/p>\n

Hollywood Tower Hotel of Terror – Disneyland Paris:<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Genuinely I convinced myself prior to visiting I weren\u2019t going to ride this. I didn\u2019t want the death feeling of a drop tower that I usually get. But then I didn\u2019t wanna miss out neither. So plucked the courage up and I definitely didn\u2019t regret it. It\u2019s simply the best ride I\u2019ve ever experienced!\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Have you ever experienced been left speechless by a ride? If so what ride & why? Let us know in the comments or across our socials.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Thank you for reading….<\/p>\n
