Do you think roller coaster loops are scary?

Hey, peeps. Starting school (on Tuesday) our class has been psyched because we go to Hershey sometime in June. Our teacher last year went with students and went on the Farenheit (which goes straight up, down, then a lot of loops) and I wanted to know if it's loops or any loops are scary for you. Is it scarier than a drop? Thx.

Update:

never been on a loop one. :) Not sure if I should or not.

    Hey! That's great that you get to go to Hershey, it's a really great park!! When I was younger, I used to really love loops - even more then drops..now I think I like height/drops more then inversions, but they are still both great ride elements. Anyway, loops really aren't that bad. If you had never been on a looping coaster before, then you might want to go on SooperDooperLooper - it's at Hershey and it only has one loop and the ride isn't intense at all...it also almost never has a line, so you should hop right on that ride first to "test out" a loop! Farenheit is a more intense ride then SooperDooperLooper, but it's really fun - one of the best coasters there, and I'm sure you'll love it. Loops aren't scarier then drops in my opinion (but I don't think drops are scary either, they are enjoyable)...they really aren't scary at all, it's just that your view changes during an inversion (and your body feels weird from the changes in g-forces - but it's a neat feeling!!), which makes it exciting! So don't worry, you'll have a blast there - try out all of the rollercoasters if you can!

    Have fun!

    I personally think farenheit is amazing! The loops aren't that scary. If you close your eyes you can barely tell that you are going upside down. The drop is definitely scarier. But when you are on a roller coaster it's fun to be scared!

    Well, this is just my opinion. For me, loops are NOT scary at all! Drops are WAY scarier then loops by far! But still, I just started going on roller coasters a few days ago. I always close my eyes for all the things like loops, cork-screws, drops, ext. I really dislike cork-screws. But that's just me. Hope that gives you an idea.

    I dont find any coaster scary. I do find some more enjoyable than others. I dont like getting beat up on rough ones. Loops are not scary neither are drops, the scary stuff is the flatrides that are rusty adn falling apart. Those scare me more!
