Put it this way - my mom got incredibly sick on Star Tours, can't do any of the raft rides at Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon to say nothing of any of the other thrill rides...
... and she LOVES LOVES LOVES Soarin'! So don't be nervous - you'll be fine!

Soarin is a ride for EVERYONE! The only reason people may not ride the first time is because they expect it to be a Mission Space type thrill ride.
In reality it's a family adventure that makes you really feel like you are flying around the state of California!
It's such a relaxing ride, just thinking of it makes me smile.

don't go on the ride if you are afraid of heights.
You are only sitting on a nylon seat with your feet dangling over the edge (the ground will be up to several stories below you).
you are only strapped in with a seat belt, no over the shoulder harness.
I personally don't find the attraction relaxing knowing i could at any time slip out from under my seatbelt to my concrete grave below.
Have fun!

Seriously though, Soarin' is extremely smooth and not scary at all.

You'd probably not land on concrete - you'd either land on that wire guard railing before the screen or the screen itself and the metal work that supports it. Either way, you'd gain enough speed falling to probably be fatally impaled or sever atleast a limb or two.

I'm assuming you'd go through it - not slide. Kinda hollow-like with the screen stetched over the metal frame. However, massive metal grid supporting it, so I assume that'd kill ya.

Definately check it out, I have a fear of everything, but I love this ride. I do not ride any thrill rides at all, but this is a great ride.

If you are afraid of heights, don't look down!
Just keep your eyes pasted on the big screen and it should be all good!

The feet dangeling aspect may be unnerving to some, but the seatbelt is quite a good restraint. I would expect this to be updated to include a 3 way restraint (center loop through which the seatbelt fits). That may have made the ride difficult for larger people to ride, however. Its still pretty difficult to slip through a seatbelt especially when most of your weight is towards the back/bottom of the seat.
