It's so fun but i don't know if its dangerous if so, what are the risks of going on the spinning rides at theme parks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
They're safe: There's a lone case of a probable subdural hematoma from a roller coaster, by analogy with "shaken baby". I think these rides are far safer than many other fun things. Enjoy yourself.
