My own setances
I usually don't go to an amusement park because I have acrophobia.
I really hate the white-knuckle moment when I ride some scary rides such as roller coasters, viking etc.
However, my friends encouraged me not to chicken out when we went to an amusement park so I've ridden those scary rides and I broke out in a cold sweat.
