Do you have a Disney World ride you just don’t want to ride anymore?
We know we all have our favorites and we’ve seen some of the longest lines for many of those, like Flight of Passage in Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Rise of the Resistance in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. But do you have a ride that maybe you enjoy, but you’ve just had to give up on it for various reasons — because we do!Â
Yep, while we may LOVE some of the rides in Disney World, there are some we have just stopped riding. Hey, it happens.
Mission: SPACE
A lot of folks might not realize it, but Mission: SPACE in EPCOT might be the most thrilling ride in all of Disney World. This ride literally puts you on a centrifuge (a spinny thing) just like the ones used to train NASA astronauts that simulate what it’s like to go into space, with G-forces and all. Y’all, that is EXTREME. But hey, we all think we’re going to be thrill seekers and do it, right?
Of course, we often regret it immediately after (this could be the MOST nauseating ride in all of Disney World, too). We are NOT astronauts, and we recognize that. So we just skip Mission: SPACE Orange and if we must, we’ll hop in the much tamer non-spinning Mission: SPACE Green version of the ride.
Here’s A FULL LIST of the Thrill Rides in Disney World!
Space Mountain
Space Mountain in Magic Kingdom is a classic and it’s one of those rides we always WANT to ride, but is it just us or has this ride become more uncomfortable as the years have passed? Okay, maybe we’re just getting older, but this ride feels a lot more rickety than it did when we were kids.
The last time we rode Space Mountain, it felt like every bone in our body was shaking, and once we got out of the ride vehicle, we vowed never to do it again. It was fun while it lasted… We much prefer the other mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
Now, don’t get us wrong, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is a LOT of fun and we love how the vehicles rock back and forth on the track while you’re riding it. But what we don’t like is that the line for this ride is ALWAYS long (sometimes more than an hour) and the ride itself is less than three minutes.
The queue isn’t THAT great either (and maybe Disney missed an opportunity there) to make that long wait worth it for such a short ride. However, with that being said, if you really want to ride it, buy that Individual Lightning Lane for a shorter wait. Us? Well, we’re not going to rope drop Magic Kingdom for that ride — instead, we’ll rope drop Gaston’s Tavern, grab a cinnamon roll, and NOT wait in that line.
Does Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Have a Drop? Is It Scary?
So, we know, we know, never say never, but we do tend to avoid these rides when we’re in the parks. We’re not saying you should, too, but we’re warning you that not EVERYTHING about these rides is great and you might find other rides that suit you and your party better.
We’ll continue to cover EVERYTHING in Disney World, so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for more.

Which rides will you never ride again in Disney World? Let us know in the comments!
Space at WDW is the WORST. However, at Disneyland it is a much smoother ride a definite don’t miss. HyperSpace? Worth the trip to CA -a DONT MISS EXPERIENCE!!
Dinosaur animal, kingdom is especially rough
With neck and back issues, many of the “E-Ticket” roller coaster rides are off the table. I will never ride 7 Dwarves Mine Train again. I love the Dinosaur ride in Animal Kingdom but it does leave me wanting to visit my physical therapist when done. My wife will never do Space Mountain again, once was enough for her. For me it is a nostalgia ride as I first rode it back in 1976 and have only been on it about three times since. Wife and son will never ride it again. LOL.
Space Mountain, used to love it, but last time, very scary with my neck. Skipped last two visits and never again.
