Are you saying that laying down on a roller coaster would make it less nauseating? Admittedly I have not tried it but I don't think that would work.

- gaius 13y agoIt would, but not for the reason you think: lying on your back activates the mechanism you still have from when you were a baby that stopped you getting motion sickness when you were being carried by your mother. We advise people suffering from seasickness that one thing they can do is lie on their backs, and it often is enough by itself.
