For those looking for something a little more high octane, there's Munich Looping, the world’s largest transportable rollercoaster, the Aeronaut Starflyer, the XXL and the Blizzard.
However, for those who aren't keen on big rides, they can watch other people getting thrilled with the Cirque Berserk show Tornado.
It promises to be an "adrenaline-fuelled circus stunt" show from a troupe of daredevils.
