Content creator defies vertigo and heights fear to forge global career on high-adrenaline rides
HE SUFFERS from vertigo and he hates heights - but it hasn’t stopped Sean Evans from tackling hundreds of rides as a professional rollercoaster rider.
The 34-year-old, from Stoke-on-Trent says he loves his job because it will ‘never get boring.
Sean’s fear of heights dates back to his childhood - after he challenged himself to go on a rollercoaster during a secondary school trip to Alton Towers, he was so petrified he avoided rides for years to come.
But during the Covid-19 lockdown he found himself drawn to old YouTube videos of content creators exploring theme parks and enjoying rollercoaster rides.
Inspired by their experiences, Sean started his own YouTube channel called Lift Hills and Thrills documenting his theme park visits.
Since then, Sean has tackled about 300 rollercoasters, despite his vertigo, which gives him ‘24-hour migraines’
