Why are roller coasters scarier than skydiving?
Why are roller coasters scarier than skydiving? While a roller coaster is designed to push your body to its limits, skydiving is a much smoother, much freer experience. It's hard to describe, but if a roller coaster was the ocean, it would be choppy and rough, whereas a skydiving is like a serene lake, much calmer and almost tranquil.
Is it scarier to go skydiving or roller coaster?
The “scariness” of skydiving and roller coasters are both subjective, so it depends on what it is about each adventure that scares you. While roller coasters are designed to give you a thrill, tandem skydiving is more of a personal, life-changing experience that results in utter joy and accomplishment.
