Sean Evans, a professional roller coaster rider and YouTube content creator, makes six figures despite being afraid of heights. He explained, “I’m always there shaking and trembling. I always get butterflies in my stomach … but as soon as that roller coaster goes down its first drop, the fear washes away at that moment.”
He started a YouTube channel called “Lift Hills and Thrills,” where he shares his adventures exploring theme parks around the UK. Despite his fear, he has ridden about 130 roller coasters and set a park record by riding “Nemesis at Alton Towers” 64 times in six hours. One of his most-watched videos, featuring him on the Velocity ride at Flamingo Land Resort in England, made him around $4,000. He’s living his dream, turning his hobby into a full-time job. Evans encourages others to conquer their fears and remember they can overcome them.
