World's tallest fastest roller coaster

 KingdaKa_Kingda Ka shattered all world records for speed and height when it debuted in 2005 at Six Flags Great Adventure. Park in Jackson New Jersey.  This 418-foot-tall coaster is truly the "King of Coasters." Kingda Ka rockets riders horizontally from 0 to 128 mph in 3.5 seconds before vertically catapulting them a mind-blowing 456 feet (45 stories) into the sky at a 90-degree angle. After a brief moment in the clouds, rides descend 418 feet back down to earth in a 270-degree spiral, only to experience another breathtaking moment of weightlessness as they soar over a 129-foot-tall hill and then glide back into the station. Kingda Ka will anchor The Golden Kingdom 11-acre jungle section, the largest expansion in the park's 30-year history.  
A video virtual tour ride is available.
Note:  Kingda Ka is undergoing testing and is open and closed intermittently while they make adjustments to the ride.
