Oh my @rileys. They aren't the same at all. I cried and literally fell to the ground when I got off terror. I can do it now but I meditate the entire time. I find rises drop fun.

Oh rise is nothing. Tot I finally found the hand holds on the side so I tolerate it once for dh who loves it.

Rise is like missing the last step down a staircase. Tot is like jumping off your roof.

Definitely not the same! I add the emphasis because the tiny drop on RotR is so small compared to ToT. I can't do ToT

(Insert laughing emoji here) If you can't do the drop in Rise don't even attempt ToT.

LOL, @MO! Plus I get motion sick on TOT now. In 90s, it was just the one huge drop at first then a smaller 2nd. I loved it. Sheer terror. This whole random bouncing like Tigger assortment of drops is less sheer terror and more puke feeling.

Add in the factor that the number of drops and height varies each time. Rise drops once. TOT will drop several times. Each time trying to kill me again.

What they all said! Rise is a little swoopy dip to "launch". ToT is a stomach dropping fall-repeated with more bounces- I love it, & the GotG version evem more- doesn't sound as if it's for you!

Ummm "Tower of Terror" never sounded like a fun time to me.

Tower of Mild Dispepsia just doesn't have that thrill ride feel, though.

@Ali, I once overheard a kid asking their dad, "What are we going on next?" Dad said "Tower of....uh....something." :D

TOT is the only ride I have never ridden at WDW.

Ended up skipping it and dd came out the ride making the puke motion face and said never again lol

lol @JJT! Every time my DS16 and I go on ToT (which we finally got brave enough to do last year), he mumbles "why do I do this to myself?" But yet, we go again. The sheer adrenaline of anticipation... Also funny "Tower of uh...something" Ha!

Hard to believe after all these years that originally ToT was just a single drop. And it was a big deal when they added the second drop. And now . . . .

@hodg is right. I have extremely bad motion sickness, but I can handle TOT which I ADORE. I'd encourage most everyone to give it a try.

Also, the theming makes it seem more, well, terrorizing. If it was brightly lit and called something like happy jiggly bounce hotel, I bet the drops wouldn't feel as scary.

I'm definitely going to start calling it Happy Jiggly Bounce Hotel.
