Is Big Thunder Mountain Scarier Than seven dwarfs?

Both are essentially “kiddie coasters” with no big drops or anything particularly thrilling, so it's tough to say which one is tamer. 7 Dwarfs is tamer since it's a tad shorter and the slow part in the mine is really slow. And yes, for either ride, sitting in the front minimizes the intensity.
