Kingda Ka at Six Flags Great Adventure has reopened! POV Filmed With Permission from Six Flags Great Adventure #rollercoaster #sixflags #sixflagsgreatadventure
I rode this around the time it first opened, I think it was back in 2004 if I recall. Waited 3 hours in line for a ride that lasts only 23 seconds. It was worth it.
@@BertDaMonkeyit is more intense with inversions and unusual orientations. It’s a better ride. But that 400 ft peak of kingda ka is not more intimidating that anything on X2 to me
I went to Six Flags last week. I was SOOOO scared to go on this ride but there were literally no lines so I decided to do it. IT WAS SOOOOO MUCH fun that I rode it 3 times in a row.
Then don’t go on a weekend I guess 🤷🏻♂️ I went last Thursday and for the first two hours the park was open, didn’t have to wait more than one train for a single ride. After 1:00 a handful of rides had lines 5-20 minutes tops but most still had literally none, including Ka. It was awesome
@@brandonr3741 lol yea I grew up in Jackson, I know the rules, its just pathetic they dont have a better system and then they create a long line system just to sell you a pass that lets you skip it. Its jokes. I just get a free flash pass by saying I have Epilepsy and get to just get times for the coasters. Overcast days are the best days, riding Nitro in the rain is the best ever, King da Ka is over rated and boring tbh.
@@UMadUCauseBad oh cool. Nitro was my favourite coaster there, but I loved them all (except green lantern lol). Kingda ka is gimicky but I definitely enjoyed it, I wouldn’t fancy waiting in a long line for it though. It’s a quick burst of ultra concentrated adrenaline and then it’s over.
@@brandonr3741yep!! me and my fam went last summer on a Thursday at like 5pm and didn’t have to wait on not one line, we just walked right in😭 we went on skull mountain 3 times!!!
@@Thea20286 are you dumb? they make 40 mil every year, and thats not including six flags qiddiya, which is gonna cost a fortune, and theres salaries to think about, also i made a mistake, kingda ka costs 25 mil, and theres 27 six flags parks, so 25 million x 27 is 625 million. do some research before commenting "buddy"
rollercoasters close for maintenance often. it could be as simple as a cable snapping needed to be fixed (happens on lift hills and hydraulic launch coasters sometimes), or fixing track wear, changing trains, whatever.
Traveled all the way from GA just to ride this coaster and it was definitely worth it. The other rides at this Six Flags are pretty great too, especially the Jersey Devil
One time the coaster couldn't make it to the top so we went backwards and had to start over. It's over so fast. El Toro is the coaster that will kick your behind. Pics of the people afterwards are straight up comedy!
Having a sunglasses in the front row certainly helps a lot. I did the same thing recently. The wind is an assault to your face due to how fast it’s going, and having those glasses will allow you to open your eyes. My only criticism about the ride is the twist during the drop. Twist/turn or anything that makes it more or less than a 90 degrees drop always greatly diminishes the drop thrill. But despite that, it’s my 2nd favorite roller coaster.
this ride is sm fun i went when i was 9 and i passed out the whole time then again when i was 11 it was so fun my gums nd skin were like flapping back😭 to this day i go on it every time i go to six flags
Those cameras make it so much more condensed looking...like, not as high as it really is. I LOVE this coaster....you have to watch it from a phone view or mounted camera...or just go and ride it!!!❤
I have ridden it several times- like the acceleration and other than that like loops and more. Remember lightning loops? The first and we thought it was the greatest… I think that there will be another similar to kingda kah that will add more riding fun
This ride has a top speed of 128 mph that’s insane. I’ve been on rides but not recently of them going 60-80 mph but 128 that’s insane. Till I bought me a 720 hp Camaro zl1 with a manual.
One of my all time fav rides, went on 5 times in 1 day the season it opened, and many times since. It's almost like a modern, higher version of the old Batman/Robin Chiller ride (huge build up, huge drop). But, still, my fav ride in this park will always be Nitro. Nothing like it. Especially if u sit in the front or back row and close your eyes as soon as u leave the gate and wait until you drop
My friends and I did the Zumanjaro drop of doom, the ride attached to this one, while we were on acid and it ruled. Six flags on acid rules as long as you invest in good flash passes and don’t have to wait lol
@@danielcubillasginenez162the other way around actually. This opened first and the plans for Ferrari land were drafted shortly after and they changed to make it a tiny bit taller and a tiny bit faster. When it was built the speed was just not there but the tiny height does make it technically the tallest
@@spochysrandomnetwork kingda ka opened in 2005 and was commissioned in 2002 , announced in 2004. Ferrari world didn't even open until 2010 In Abu Dhabi with formula rossa surpassing kingda ka for speed but not height. Ferrari land at Port Aventura in Spain opened in 2017. Red Force opened in April 2017 and has a height of 112 m and speed of 180 kph . Kingda ka is taller at 139 meters and faster at 206 km/h. TLDR kingda ka was first by a lot and remains the tallest of its kind and is second fastest. Red Force launch is great because it's LSM not hydraulic. But many of us coaster enthusiasts prefer hydraulic because of the immediate acceleration. The instantaneous acceleration on that cannot be met by LSM. That said I think the best of its kind is still top thrill dragster. Source : working in the industry and having been on all of these coasters.
@@spochysrandomnetwork are you high? In what sense is the one at ferrari land better? Its worse in every sense. Kingda Ka is faster, taller, faster acceleration, was a large bunny hill at the end, it is a hydraulic launch. Red Force has literally none of that.
I like this coaster. Not saying its the best but is one of the best launch coasters i have been on. I personally think Storm Runner is better just because it has no headbanging but this is still a good ride!
@@skizmx well most of the hydroulic ones. of the ones i did i still prefer the LSM's on Xpress platform 13. and mayby even bluefire. and deff. space mountain that winch launch is so good
No you don’t feel anything or get that weak stomach feel trust me cuz if I went on it and I hate that stomach feel that I would never go on it again but I keep going on it over and over again

The ride is really fun you should try it. Holding your hands up is a different story.

The sort of quiet "woo" had me dying. BRO if i was going that fast going directly down on that thing I'd be screaming my voice box into extinction
Lol, that's a perfect way of saying what I'd do too. That and I'd pass out for sure. I dislike roller coasters.
You move so fast screaming is almost impossible because of all the force
Nice to see Timothy Chalamet enjoying himself
LMAO

I've went on this ride but going up is way more scarier than going down, and you go so fast in one second, it can make you pass out.
The camera man that’s running along the track with them:
LMAO 😭
I knew I couldn't be the only one who had that thought 😉
Right??!!! 😂
Are u joking
@@Coolmanyayayasigmas no bro we’re being 100% serious
This ride is on my bucket list if I ever make it to America
I rode this when it was at Cedar Point. Best adrenaline rush ever!
This is at Six Flags Great Adventure, NJ.
@@TessA-es3if do u mean dragster?
This is the roller coaster equivalent of eating cake icing. Did I mention I love cake icing? Great POV Collin!
These guys are so chilled…they look like they’re piloting this!!! 🤣😂🤣
"Reopened" raises immediate concerns for me lol
Snapped Cable caused it to close. It happens to all of these ride models.
rollercoasters close for maintenance often. it could be as simple as a cable snapping needed to be fixed (happens on lift hills and hydraulic launch coasters sometimes), or fixing track wear, changing trains, whatever.
The ride closed because when it started going up the hill it went backwards, it’s all fixed now. Nobody was injured
Ok good to no.
If they roll back the ride has been designed to brake the coaster to a safe stop
Insane! Great filming!!!
Best pov of this ride ever.
Thats a hard "Hell No" for me!!!
Thats a hard Hell yes for me
I went on this today. The feeling you get from it is so hard to describe. And the view you get at the top while going down is so crazy.
Props the camera man
Thank you!
Rode this several times. 1st time I was bruised up and down my arms from squeezing so tight in fear LOL best one out there
As someone who loves roller coasters I can feel the drop from the screen 😂
You move so fast you don't even feel the drop
Great camera work!! That’s killer.
Traveled all the way from GA just to ride this coaster and it was definitely worth it. The other rides at this Six Flags are pretty great too, especially the Jersey Devil
Jersey devil was a pleasant surprise

This was my fist rollercoaster omg it was so scary I started crying but when it took off all my tears flew away!!!
Good one guys 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 now that’s a video !!! Thank you!
Dude turned into Palpatine the second the coaster started moving. Phenomenal Pov.
The entire ride from launch to back at base is 27 seconds... You can do it 🤘my favorite ride ever
The launch in the video doesn't relay very well how tall this ride is, but it does seem like you get the feeling when you crest the top.
This was my favorite roller coaster ever!!
This is the six flags I go to and i must say, king da ka is definitely an awesome ride
Everyone gangsta till one screw falls out
this ride is sm fun i went when i was 9 and i passed out the whole time then again when i was 11 it was so fun my gums nd skin were like flapping back😭 to this day i go on it every time i go
to six flags
That was the most chill “yeeaahhh” at the top
It’s such a fun ride, but def anxiety provoking during the long wait!
This is a ride where people can fart and leave the smell at the entrance and not get caught 🤣
🤢💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
HIS FACE THO😂😂😂😂

Proof that the camera man never dies😂
It’s the fact you have your arms like that the whole ride. My scary ass woulda went straight to holding on the pull over thing.😂😂
Bro is so calm
That's sound of the Ka's Hailing Speed is Sooooo Dope❤❤
“Light work, no reaction”
Awesome 360 footage bro
We stood in line for 2 hours for this ride, the ride was over in 2 minutes🥴
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Universal sells skip the line passes!
I have ridden it several times- like the acceleration and other than that like loops and more.
Remember lightning loops? The first and we thought it was the greatest…
I think that there will be another similar to kingda kah that will add more riding fun
I'd definitely wear sunglasses or eye protectors! what if a bird flew into your face?
That’s only ever happened once, so our chances are pretty good haha
Peep his hair before and after😂
It looks like such a rough uncomfortable ride
its not really, unless you get the first few rows
kingda ka rollercoaster is twice this cranes height. Let that sink in.
Him not screaming: 👁️👄👁️
And?
Tbh people who scream at rides are so overdramatic
@@your_paralys1sdemonokay tough man

Everybody deserves an Oscar in a situation like this they was so calm
An Oscar is for acting. How stupid are you that you think that applies to every short on RUclips?
Lol do you know what an Oscar is even awarded for?
Was just on this yesterday! I thought my face was going to be blasted off and left behind as I blasted off into space lol
Flat earthers would say the video is fake
lmao
One of my all time fav rides, went on 5 times in 1 day the season it opened, and many times since. It's almost like a modern, higher version of the old Batman/Robin Chiller ride (huge build up, huge drop). But, still, my fav ride in this park will always be Nitro. Nothing like it. Especially if u sit in the front or back row and close your eyes as soon as u leave the gate and wait until you drop
On a clear day, you can see both NYC and PHL from up there.
Do you have time to see both lol
When I’m about to go on a ride and there are like adults on it screaming, it makes me scared
I thought they had metal bars to rest their arms on for a second. Nah, they are quite literally just holding their arms out.
The way I would Scream, cry, and Throw up at the same time 😭
King da ka only closed to see what top thrill dragster was up to
Exactly but I cant wait until Top Thrill 2
How that stays on the rails at that speed is absolutely insane
That's my exact theory
Am i the only one thats more afraid of the launch then the drop
Yeah i don't know why but the inclines on coasters have always scared me more than the drop.
@@austinmaclean801 It always feels so scary to me idk what it is, and drops idk why but I don't really feel it anymore
I rode it and that’s exactly my feeling. The launch was INSANE. So much so that the uphill and back down again felt like a relief!
Nope
My friends and I did the Zumanjaro drop of doom, the ride attached to this one, while we were on acid and it ruled. Six flags on acid rules as long as you invest in good flash passes and don’t have to wait lol
I was still wondering if it would still be open when I went. Thanks for keeping me updated and nice pov!
Bros face almost ripped off
Video doesn't do it justice. When you're there, and you look at the insane height of that drop.....NO THANKS!!!
My fav coaster 😊
This ride in the back is crazy intense, you'll have a small headache after
