One of my favorite experiences was the day I went on the Rip Cord at Cedar Point. I was such a rush, and one the the most fun things I have ever done.
====Before I got on, I watched other people being dropped 15 stories and fly past me at nearly 65 miles an hour. I was honestly completely terrified, but my dad had already paid for me to get on. There was no turning back. I felt my heart race as I was being put into a harness. We walked into what seemed like a big black box. As they hooked what seemed like every cord possible to me, they told me to lean forward. Next thing I knew, I was hanging in mid-air.====

====I tried to close my eyes on the way up, because I'm scared to death of heights, but eventually I relaxed a little. I could see the entire park around me. They yelled up at me to pull the cord, and as soon as I did, I got that weird feeling in my stomache. I couldn't barely catch my breath to scream, but that didn't seem to be a problem for my sister or stepbrother. I thought they were going to break my eardrum.====

====After I was unhooked, I begged my dad to let me get on again. Although I felt very dizzy from the first time, I couldn't wait to be able to do it again. I wasn't so nervous the next time, so I thought it was twice as fun. I couldn't walk straight for about fifteen minutes afterwards.====
