Scary Moment O.o

My ears were ringing and my heart was beating at the speed of light. I was truly horrified in that moment. I did not want to, but my brother made me. He at the time was seventeen, very bulky, and towered over me at 5'8. I on the other hand was twelve, not so strong as to free my hand, and only 5'2. I had never been on one of those crazy people things, and I really didn't want to then. That thing went so extremly high into the sky. Oh my the speed was just as fast as my racing heart. I heard the screams and thought to myself 'wow I'm going to die if I get on that thing.' I tried everything I could possibly think of like 'I don't think I fit the height limit or age limit' and one of my cousins says 'well see that guy over there, he didn't stop you from coming this far- so no duh your tall enough, now stop acting like a chiken.' Then i turned around and faced my brother with a fake as possible face that looked 'sick' and said 'my stomach hurts real bad' and my brother looked down at me and told me ' so then don't puke on me.' UGH! I was getting real frustrated with my lame companions, they wouldn't listen to a thing I said! After about five mintues i started to get a little jumpy and a minute later I said outloud 'I have to go pee REAL bad' and my brother again looked down at me- thought it over for a few seconds [yes! he was going to let me GO!] and replied 'I guess you'll be okay, I mean your all wet from that water ride anyway.' That was it, "REALLY!? Your such an IDIOT! UGH!', but no matter what I did or said I was still was going to end up locked on that horrific seat- that would surely lead to my death. Alright then, it was cool- so that's what I told myself. So when it was finally our turn; I walked up to the seat with my head held high, gave it a good stare... and walked off towards the exit. Yes! I was FREE! Really? No, ofcourse not- beacuse just as the exit was inches away it was too far. My brother grabbed me by the shoulders, looked down into my eyes and laughed with real amusement and said, 'your real clever kid, but sorry to say your not going anywhere except that seat' [almost seemed like he was proud of me to almost have him fooled]. And so I was dragged back to the seat, thrown into it, and locked up; just wonderful!. I guess the good thing was that I was sitting next to my brother and one of my older cousins. But the bad thing was that I WAS sitting on that SEAT! That seat that was going to get me killed, such a horrific- monstorous thing it was. It seemed like an eternity for the workers to check all the seat belts, which sould have been a good thing except as each second went by the crazier I became. My head was screaming for me to get off, my hands were sweaty and slippery against the metal bars, and my brother was laughing at my cousins joke. Thier so concerned about my health. So I just sat their and thought, 'its not so bad, I mean its only what a minute or two?' right ofcourse because I had a minute of my life to spare. Whoa, out of nowhere all i see is the platform going down and myself being pulled forward. Then all of a sudden it felt like the devil was out to get me, because the sun was blinding my eyes and everything was burning hot. As we were being pulled higher and higher into the sky, I made the mistake of looking down. That was the moment, I thought that my eyes were going to fall out of their sockets. Good grief the thing probably took us 300 feet into the air. As I recall, I think if I had the guts to let my hand reach into the sky- I would have been able to feel the fluffyness of the clouds. But i didn't even have that much time to think about anything because i was falling! [Down, down, down, down,down, down, down, even if the sky is falling down] I was plunging down so fast, that i thought i was going to crash head-first into the hot burning black asphalt [and die ofcourse]. But just as i was finishing up with my last words [more like thoughts, because my mouth was to busy screaming my lungs out], I was thrown back up! It happened so fast, I was racing back to the sky so fast, then everything was weird for a second because i was perpendicular to the ground, and then i was falling AGAIN! Ahhhhh! After that everything was just to fast and furiously crazy: there was another perpendicualr moment, two twirling in the sky like tinkerbell moments, one more heart pumping plunge down to earth, and then NOTHING! Wow, it was finally over after what? A decade? My heart was flipping out on me, my brain was hammering a hole through my head, and oh my goodness my throat was dry from the fire. Which was a bummer because i couldn't scream my lungs off on my brother, but glaring would do just fine. Just like it's fine to go on a rollercoaster, in fact i learned that it's the one thing you can get on and scream your mouth dry wothout having people give you the 'you crazy' stare.
