What do loops on roller coasters feel like?
The force of your acceleration pushes you from the coaster-car floor, and your inertia pushes you into the car floor. At the very bottom of the loop, the acceleration force is pushing you down in the same direction as gravity. Since both forces push you in the same direction, you feel especially heavy at this point.
Are upside down roller coasters safe?
Gravity keeps pulling you toward the Earth when you go upside down, but inertia pushes you against the floor of the roller coaster car. This pushing force is stronger than gravity.

Why does my stomach drop when I ride a roller coaster?
This is because what we feel as weight is not caused by the force of gravity pulling us down. It’s caused by the force of the floor (or the chair, or the roller coaster seat) pushing against our body and holding us up. When we fall – when there is nothing to hold us up – we’re weightless.
