I was scared out of my mind the first time I rode Wildfire. At the time I was not at all into coasters, but obviously that one ride changed it all. You know it's a good ride if it's able to turn a wimp like I was into not only a coaster connoisseur, but an avid SDC fan all around. Trust me, it's like everyone says: after the first ride you just keep coming back for more. You'll be sorry you didn't get on sooner.

As the scientist, I think the lead ride op may occasionally dress up as Hartio Harris, but I don't see it every time. It's another one of those things that was a really nice touch when the ride first opened, but now they've forgotten about it.

^I was also terrified. I wasn't even ten years old when the ride opened but I forced myself to ride it! I didn't love it at first like I do now but it wasn't awful. I eventually got on it again and now it is my favorite ride at SDC. Now, I'm not scared to get on a roller coaster I haven't ever rode anymore.

Glasses aren't a problem.

You saw people riding with glasses on?

I always ride with my glasses on, they don't even come loose - but you may not want to risk it.

I don't like Batman as much because I think it's too fast and spins around too much.  I have no idea where I am or what's going on.  On Wildfire I'm not as disoriented and can enjoy the view.

Batman at SFSTL has rust all over the track.   Six Flags St. Louis doesn't always take care of their coasters very well.

The ride videos are active on Wildfire now.   

A video photo package is $25 if i remember correctly or you can get just the dvd for $16.  Don't quote me I slept before I wrote this!

I'm going to get one the next time I work so I'll get it uploaded when I get home..

I am moving though so it could cause some troubles....
but betamike is going to the park maybe he should ride and get the dvd for us!  :-)

I always ride with a strap on my glasses.

I agree what we have say about Wild FIRE!

One girl of friend's daughter rode together.  My friend expect me not to scared her as boo or say ahh we going fall! 

Anyway--  it her first time she rode and she couldn't believe what she see and it like she just jump into sky and ride like crazy that delight her day!

WildFire is what I am looking instead hitting my head...
