Expedition Everest gets our vote for scariest roller coaster in Disney World. Rock 'n' Roller Coaster and Space Mountain both take place entirely in the dark, but even their surprises don't compare with what Expedition Everest brings to the table.
The closing of the 30-year-old ride — which Princess Diana visited in 1993 — follows years of calls for change because it features several characters from Disney's 1946 film Song of the South, which featured racist stereotypes.
Expedition Everest isn't for the faint of heart. Not only is there a steep 80 foot drop, but it reaches high speeds of 50 mph and goes both forwards and backwards. It's a thrilling, intense ride. There are also a lot of dark moments and a scary yeti that appears.
Yes, you can definitely bring your Yeti thermos to stay hydrated in the theme parks. Walt Disney World Resort has been proactive in adding water bottle refill stations throughout the theme parks.

RNRC is the most physically intense but Everest feels scarier to me because it has outdoor portions so you can see how high you are and how fast you're going. I always find dark coasters less scary. Also lift hills are scarier than launches because of the anticipation. YMMV of course.
Climbers who ascend higher than 26,000 feet on Mount Everest enter the death zone. In this area, oxygen is so limited that the body's cells start to die, and judgment becomes impaired. Climbers may also experience heart attack, stroke, or severe altitude sickness.
