BE FEARFUL.
OP, you need to find some information about those rides that use those similar to those raft-water rides, but instead it is a trackless section of a roller coaster. One of those can be found at "Knoebels".
I've never, ever been on a Six Flags roller coaster. However, I have been on most if not all of the roller coasters at Hershey Park. The launch was so loving fast on one of the red ones, the one next to the black roller coaster if anyone has been there.

Superman Tower of Power – 2007

This Six Flags mainstay isn’t a traditional roller coaster; it’s more of a vertical drop ride where passengers legs hang free. But what happened at Six Flags Kentucky in June of 2007 was so grisly that it earns a place on this list. When a group of teenage girls headed up on the ride, they were horrified when a number of support cables broke loose and started whipping them in the face and torso. They screamed “Stop the ride!” as smoke began billowing from the sides, but they were cranked all the way to the top and dropped, the steel cables snapping back and forth viciously. Many of the passengers were injured and one girl had both of her feet completely amputated.

Oh god, I remember that incident. Still sends shivers down my spine..

its really fun but it doesnt go to the point where you cant even think during the ride. on this one you actually get to think of how fun it is also there's a really nice view of a full moon and fireworks if you go on at the right time

My favorite coaster is Fahrenheit, in Hershey Park. I only rode it once, when I was about 9 or 10.

I was just barely tall enough to reach the Twizzler (54-60 inches). But when I got on, I clearly knew I bit off much, much more than I can chew. I took the front row seat, oblivious to the fact that I will experience a life changing event. In the process of going down the 95 degree drop, I officially became a man. I could hardly remember anything, as I spent most of the ride crying and flailing my hands instead of relishing the glory of going down a loving 121 foot rollercoaster, but god.

Also, Tidal Force.

After getting on that ride, everything was wet.
EVERYTHING.

I never take the front seat, ever. I think the only time I did was on Manta, and that was a pretty unforgiving choice.

I'll add you and the previous few people to the OP.

went to movie park germany a month ago, stuff was fun
there was a wooden rollercoaster there, not sure what it was called but it was super fast and it was great.

there was also a rollercoaster where the seats hung from the rails, it was also great.
