Tried it once ...... never again!!

[NagathaCrispy]

Just caught a bit of the Winter Olympics on TV and was reminded of the one and only time I tried skiing. It was one of the worst and most terrifying experiences of my life and I will definitely not, never, ever be doing it again!!

Ditto, my only experience of scuba diving .... still having nightmares years later!!!!!

Both these activities are on my "Tried it once but never again" list. Anyone else got a Never Again experience?

Oh yes, me too! Looks like actual shit too. No idea why anyone would voluntarily eat it.

Roller coaster when I was 9. What was my mother thinking. Haven’t been on one since and I never will.

caving nope not ever ever ever. School trip holiday camp thing where we all either had to go rock climbing/abseiling or climb up tall tree stump, stand on top then jump off (with harness). Nope never again. We then were made to crawl through made up tunnels on our stomachs. Absolutely never to all this again.

flumes in swimming pools and resorts, easy hard difficult. Nearly drowned in one when I was 9.

Oh my god @thisoldcity just reading your post makes me feel panicky.

Skiing!

Walking up Snowdon.

Cannabis.
Squash.

All these were done once,I have a long list of things I wouldn’t even try once.

Go Ape, I was stuck for one hour at great height terrified with no way down, stuck in a queue with other terrified people not moving due to overcrowding.

Skiing. Well, I've tried 3 times because DH and DS love it but it's cold, wet and out of control in a bad way.

Speed.

A big theme park ride.

Seafood. Tried a lot of it once on holiday, didn’t love it and had serious D&V for days afterwards. Decided I just do not need it in my life.

I could've written this!

Also truffles (the kind that grow under trees, not the chocolate ones; I'll try those all day long).

I came here to say this. I pissed myself.

Hot air balloon in a tiny wicker basket being scared of heights and no way out of the situation.

Parasailing or whatever its called when youre dragged along by a small boat with a parachutey thing. I agreed because I was tipsy and omg it was terrifying 😳 I think had I not been drunk I would have had a heart attack.
I cant even think about it properly.

Cosmetic surgery abroad- nearly died. Very traumatic and terrifying.

Everyone saying edibles needs to give them another try though! I can't believe anyone could hate them or find them scary!

Scenic helicopter ride. The Lake District.

Parkrun. I do regularly go running by myself but I wouldn’t do parkrun again if you paid me

I love scuba and skiing. Ive been night diving and cave diving.
Bu the Smiler ride at Alton Towers, I felt like I had been in a car crash. Never again will I ride the Smiler 😂

Random exercise class - I thought I was pretty unfit (not horrifically) but I didn’t realise I would have to leave 15 mins in thinking I was going to die of heat/sweat/lack of oxygen. Turns out I had undiagnosed asthma, what fun.

Why aren’t there exercise classes aimed at unfit people? We are the ones who need them!!

Yes, it sounds pathetic but I wouldn't go on the Waltzers again. We were in this giant teacup and they made it go round really fast. I felt so ill, I thought I was going to die.

Me too. I've done a ton of miles on motorbikes but quad bikes were so different that all my reactions were off. Plus I couldn't get out of the habit of putting my foot down when coming to a stop. Horrible things.

A certain type of sex that I don’t want to spell out. It’s painful, unpleasant and even dangerous.

😂

Camping.

Would never dream of trying most things OP have mentioned as I know I would hate them.

Parachuting
Bungee jump
Scuba diving
Sushi
Flying Ryanair
Darts live championship game
Go Ape....aged 57 and had to be helped off the 4th platform....still scarred

Skydiving - it was amazing and I was 22. Now I have DC there is no WAY I’d risk my life in that way again. (I know that statistically it’s probably more dangerous crossing the road but yswim).

I love skiing, scuba diving and go ape so I'll take all your slots at those things thanks.

Festivals, went to V festival once and I hated every second of it. Being freezing cold and uncomfortable all night, boiling all day, everything was a wall of noise, cups of wee being thrown through the crowd, lugging our tent through 57 fields to find somewhere to camp. Fuck it, fuck it all.

“…..has a strong, distinctive odour coming from the colon….”. What the hell?

I hate heights. Near me there's a rickety stairway from the beach up the cliff to a cafe at the top. Lots of people were going up and down it, so I went up. In flip-flops, plus I found you could see right through the steps. It was only the thought of the cake at the top that kept me going! Thankfully there's a roadway walk down.
