Apparently Sansei's archives show that Fuji Q Highland's Giant Coaster was actually 25 meters tall instead of 40. Apparently the 40 meters stat came from the altitude instead of the height. This came from a Parkvault article that came out shortly after my video did. The information in this video was based on what information was publically available at the time.
People are falling down the roller coaster and they are falling for 2829272927 feet and they died in 1910 and they were alive again in 2021 but they didn't have any children in the ride but THEY WAS SRCAMING TO DEATH
@@imverypoorlmao8068 Goliath is pretty high (in my opinion, i rode it and it felt like i was going up the chainlift forever) but it was still far from setting a record. Goliath came out Feb 11, 2000, and it's 255 ft, while Millennium Force was 310 ft (if you want to count Superman, then thats 415 ft tall, but Goliath is complete circuit) which is a 55 foot difference. Wasn't gonna set any height records, but still high enough if you don't want to ride Millennium Force and Superman. Top Thrill Dragster and Kingda Ka are very high; a good majority of people who want to ride a "really high" coaster won't want to ride those, I'd assume
@@saviourscorpius Millennium Force didn't open until May 2000. However, Fujiyama's height is listed as 259 ft, so I don't think Goliath broke the height record, but it might have broke the drop record.
This will be the last reupload of this video. I have corrected the height stats on Magnum XL-200, and added in segments for Atomic Coaster and Mindbender. Thank you for your patience. Also, this video lists coasters by structural height and not drop height.
@@AmigaX The first time, I had to correct Magnum XL-200's height (I listed it as 200 ft. instead of 205 ft). The second time I had to add in segments for Atomic Coaster and Mindbender.
Can we just get an honorable mention in chat for Phantom's Revenge? Largest drop when it was created as Steel Phantom back in 1991 at about 228 I believe. Although it was only about 162 feet tall.
Loved this! I'm from St. Louis, so my home park has always been Six Flags St. Louis. The park had always advertised one of its coaster, Screaming Eagle, as the tallest roller coaster in the world when it opened in 1976. So it was really interesting to earn that it had already been beat 10 years before it opened!
I rode the Screamin' Eagle 🦅🎢 when it first opened! Also, enjoyed the sky glider (cable seated) ride they used to have. Back then the amusement park was called Six Flagg's over Mid America, in Eureka, Missouri.
You'd love it but only if you can afford the express line pass. Otherwise, the lanes are so long that its not worth it imo. It is the best amusement park ive ever been to but you absolutely need express lane pass. Top Thrill Dragster while technically being shorter and slower than Kingda Ka, was much more intimidating imo given its theme, music and whole dragster start up. It is really a one of a kind coaster experience that you cannot imagine until you try it yourself. The only bad part is that it ends in like 15 seconds lol... But those moments waiting up until those 15 seconds are anxiety enducing. Kingda Ka felt was like a huge blast into into space but its longer track, slower acceleration and lack of an intimidating theme made it feel null.
It really makes me lucky that I live only 45 mins away from CP, never needed to buy one in my life, would recommend going in early summer or late summer to get the best lines for all the rides. (Can ride millennium, top thrill, etc multiple times in less than an hour)
@@vector9586 I'm 5 hours away in EC Indiana, and I am jealous as hell right now. I already told my kids (17 and 11) that I'm moving as close to Sandusky as possible when they're adults lol. My little girl Berea is already looking up colleges in the area.

I love how the records branch out as rollercoasters evolve into different varieties. Wicked Twister still holds the record as the tallest inverted coaster, Son Of Beast and T Express hold wooden records, I believe Hyperion is the tallest inverting rollercoaster, and Fury 325 is the tallest non launching coaster
Dragster's promo shows that you'll be looking 11 stories down on Millennium Force, and indeed it's the only place in the park that will make Millennium appear small.
they would have to make it an S&S thrust air and give it an obnoxiously long launch track so they can kick up the acceleration every time they lose the height record, by the time they finally lose the record for good they'll have the most intense launch on earth
dragon mountain was 186ft tall in 83 but theres some weird technicalities to that stat so i hope im wrong bc i dont want you to have to re upload again bc youve already done so much work lol. keep up the great work peter
@@ThemeParkCrazy yea thats what ive read as well. i was on it many years ago and its not like theres a drop anywhere near that height so its all bc of terrain
I was always told that Top Thrill Dragster was the first strata coaster. What they were not specific about was that TTD was the first FULL CIRCUIT strata coaster! Superman Escape from Krypton was just the first strata overall.
Its a similar case to Moonsault Scramble at Fuji-Q Highland. It was the first one to break 200 feet, but since it doesn't complete a full circuit, it isn't considered to be the first hypercoaster.
@@Valhalla05 Cedar Point created the rules for the term hyper just to manipulate the public into thinking they built the tallest coaster. There's no reason to follow it
@@Sythe5665 There would have been a term for those coasters with or without Cedar Point. Also, grow up, it has nothing to do with "manipulating the public", it's just something they did to help market the ride and it caught on with the coaster community.
Great presentation, thanks. I really dig some of those earlier roller coasters, wish some of those had been preserved. I wonder if some of those oldwr launch designs could be improved upon and used today…
Fantastic video (like usual)! That research must have been a lot, but probably fun as well. Coaster history is really interesting ngl. (May I suggest doing one for steepest? I think that would be very interesting as well)
Wonderfully researched video 👍🏼 the first drop on Shockwave was fantastic💙 Vortex had great airtime, and Magnum was very intimidating! Superman Escape From Krypton is still in my top 20 coasters based on just the sheer speed of that backwards launch! Millennium Force blew my socks off 🧦 when I rode it for the first time! 🤯😅 Kingda Ka is my favorite coaster of all time because I can’t get enough of the crazy intense launch into the sky for what feels like forever!

I've only been on Dragster once and I got hit by a fly on the way up so I didn't enjoy it much, but recently I went to Great Adventure and got on Kingda Ka 3 times. I enjoyed every second of it.
Growing up near CP in the 90s/00s was super fun. Even if I've never liked heights, all the hype around the new coasters every year was contagious. Magnum is still one of my favorite rides in the park. Been meaning to go this year, but haven't had the chance to make it yet...
I’m not a big coaster buff but I love Cedar Point. The rides are pretty fun even if you’re not a thrill seeker. The mine ride is a good coaster for starters like myself.
After riding all of the newer ones this last time I went there, I was pleasantly surprised how well Magnum stands up next to the others, still easily one of the best rides there.
Hey for being there for all coaster fans and for people like who are there between fan fanatic your knowledge of coasters are well needed In our community. Thanks again Chris
Love your channel man. I'm a coaster lover myself. I was born in Santa Cruz so I grew up riding the giant dipper. I was thinking, if you haven't done it yet. Maybe try the top 10 highest ridership coasters, the top 10 worst coast break downs/accidents, top 10 worst designs, or top 10 oldest coasters in operation.
Can you do a video on the Giant Dipper in Santa Cruz, California? It's a very old historic wooden roller coaster made in the early 1900s that still runs today. It's had a few fatalities over the decades including a 15-year-old boy who randomly stood up on it and got crushed, some people claim it's haunted. I think it would make a very interesting video plot, I haven't seen any roller coaster channels talk about it yet.
I loved this video. However, I gotta represent for my home park and back it up. If I am not mistaken, Great American Scream Machine opened in 1973 at Six Flags Over Georgia as the tallest, longest, and fastest roller coaster in the world.
Brought someone to cedar point that had been to six flags many times and he actually liked the dragster over kingda ka saying that the dragster was smoother and felt faster for some reason
Hey, great video as always! I bet I'm not the only one of your fans from continental Europe, is there any chance you could include stats in meters (height, length) and kilometers per hour (speed) in your videos? Right now I have to stop the video, go to rcdb and check these stats myself, and it would be far more comfortable to just have it next to feet and miles directly in the video :D Thanks in advance and keep up the great work!
I think the tallest roller coaster I've been on was Nitro at six flags back in like 2005. Also, I got an amazing view because the cars got stuck at the top of the first hill. So I didn't really get to "ride" it the first time, but it certainly was interesting.
I used to think the worlds tallest rollercoaster was 100 feet tall. (I was 8). Then I saw boomerang at six flags Saint Louis and I asked my mom and she said “that’s about 100 feet” then my brain went “oh my, it’s the words tallest rollercoaster!” A couple years later and I learn abott ur kingda ka and learn that most coasters today are over 100 feet XD.
The one thing I learned through all your videos with historical backgrounds is that every single amusement park in the US at some point burned to the ground.

I was born and raised in NE Ohio and spent my summers going to Cedar Point & Kings Island in the 80’s. I have to say I’m disappointed that you didn’t mention The Gemini coaster built in 78 @ 125’ an awesome wooden racing coaster that still stands.
i like how you mentioned mindbender since its super iconic but on january 30 2023 it permenantly shut down and was dismantled to make way for new atractions and they are family thrills inside of a big area and i would love for you to talk about it in a video
honestly, the kingda ka surprisingly gets scarier every time you go on it, theres a sign that states "On occasion, the Kingda Ka train will not make it over the hill, the ride has been designed to safely roll back down the hill." the scare factor of that sets in and it feels more likely to happen, living in Nj, ive been on it many times but it hasnt happened to me im pretty lucky
Every tall, dangerous coaster: I am the most dangerous coaster ever! Action Park: Alright everybody! We need some plastic bottles and masking tape! We are making another coaster Action Park Employee: We ran out of masking tape though! Action Park. What! How! We had 200 Tonnes of it! Action Park Employee: There was the 9999999999999999999th lawsuit and they took away the masking tape! Action Park: Ok then! Get the emergency Flex Seal! Action Park Employee: We don’t have any! We can’t use it to build a.. safe attraction Action Park: How dare you use those words! GET ME SOME PVA GLUE NOW!
"No manufacturer has ever managed to build higher than Kingda Ka" I think it may be more accurate to replace the word "managed" with "bothered". Eltororyans video on Maverick is a great testament to this
Looks like everyone’s too afraid to say this, so as a Japanese I’m gonna say this. It takes some f***ing balls to name a roller coaster that’s just 50 miles away from Nagasaki “Atomic.” I honestly think it’s hilarious.
@@ThemeParkCrazy Correct. However, Desperado did outdo PMBO in equalling Steel Phantom's drop record (225ft), so could be considered the Real co-tallest full circuit at that point. Also, important we don't forget Goliath @ SFMM (255ft drop) surpassing Fujiyama (230) three months before opening of MF. Honorary Record Holders. Btw..... OUTSTANDING effort TPC :)
Hi, considering there are Roller Coasters enthusiasts watching all over the world, can you consider adding metric system information to your next videos. Its just a quick info that would be useful to the rest of the world.
I want to ride kingda ka. I think they should keep it around. Mind you I'm a year late on commenting but hey. If you have the tallest roller coaster in the would wouldn't youi keep it?
The tallest coaster I've ever been on is Goliath at Six Flags Magic Mountain! that first drop has stayed with me since my first time on that coaster. I miss riding Roller Coasters. :'( the thrill is unlike any other.

the "Wild One" has been named Lil Dipper for about 5 years now so he got one wrong
it’s pretty cool to see something you live so close to and never knew about. thanks for this !
23:03 Yeah no kidding! It’s always intamin that breaks the records, the records the company broke are the following:
Tallest
Fastest
Most Expensive
16:40 One of my favorite rides ever is the Magnum. On god, there’s a never a line for it at Cedar Point. It’s such a hidden gem.
amazing editing & narration!
Can you do a video on the Giant Dipper in Santa Cruz, California? It's a very old historic wooden roller coaster made in the early 1900s that still runs today. It's had a few fatalities over the decades including a 15-year-old boy who randomly stood up on it and got crushed, some people claim it's haunted. I think it would make a very interesting video plot, I haven't seen any roller coaster channels talk about it yet.
I loved this video. However, I gotta represent for my home park and back it up. If I am not mistaken, Great American Scream Machine opened in 1973 at Six Flags Over Georgia as the tallest, longest, and fastest roller coaster in the world.
Giant Coaster opened 7 years before GA's GASM and was around 30 feet taller. Also, I love SFOG and I'm excited to go back 😁.
Brought someone to cedar point that had been to six flags many times and he actually liked the dragster over kingda ka saying that the dragster was smoother and felt faster for some reason
Hey, great video as always! I bet I'm not the only one of your fans from continental Europe, is there any chance you could include stats in meters (height, length) and kilometers per hour (speed) in your videos?
Right now I have to stop the video, go to rcdb and check these stats myself, and it would be far more comfortable to just have it next to feet and miles directly in the video :D
Thanks in advance and keep up the great work!
Long live the king🔥👑
Rest in peace kingda ka 2005-2024🕊❤️
Yoo I actually did this on my second channel "ZeroG-Thrills" but you did it better, great video.
Six Flags be like: We did it once, and we're gonna fuckin' do it again.

Falcon's Flight enters the chat.
hey when you were talking about the shuttle coasters, there was also another one, it was the thunder looper at Alton Towers in the UK
I think the tallest roller coaster I've been on was Nitro at six flags back in like 2005. Also, I got an amazing view because the cars got stuck at the top of the first hill. So I didn't really get to "ride" it the first time, but it certainly was interesting.
Great video. "Top Thrill Dragster" is my favorite. Mainly because of the launch and approach speed but also because it goes all the way over.
6:48 america lost their biggest and brightest thinker. The mans ideas were so bright it turned his head into a lightbulb. RIP
I used to think the worlds tallest rollercoaster was 100 feet tall. (I was 8). Then I saw boomerang at six flags Saint Louis and I asked my mom and she said “that’s about 100 feet” then my brain went “oh my, it’s the words tallest rollercoaster!” A couple years later and I learn abott ur kingda ka and learn that most coasters today are over 100 feet XD.
Not to nit pick, but tidal wave was also at the Marriotts in Gurnee, IL i think they're the same. Correct me if I am wrong.
It was, but the general point I was making is that the model as a whole was a record breaker.
The one thing I learned through all your videos with historical backgrounds is that every single amusement park in the US at some point burned to the ground.
All of these companies creating coasters that are just a few feet above the record.
intamin: Hold my beer
falcons flight is gonna out do the record but with more than 170 ft over the top, and obviously, its from intamin
Never knew mind bender was the tallest at one point
This was extremely interesting and entertaining. The research and editing prowess on display in this piece are more professional than 95% of what I see on YT. I know your passion is coasters and I don’t know how much of what we see/hear is your own work vs. that of partners, but whatever effects Covid eventually wreaks on park viability worldwide, you have a knack for content and will be able to present for any number of industries. Keep up the good work!
I was born and raised in NE Ohio and spent my summers going to Cedar Point & Kings Island in the 80’s. I have to say I’m disappointed that you didn’t mention The Gemini coaster built in 78 @ 125’ an awesome wooden racing coaster that still stands.
Although the structure is wood, the track is tube, so considered a steel coaster, but yes, deserves a mention.
evolution of worlds shortest coasters now
That could be an April Fools Joke.
I remember the wild one always being one of my favorites when I was younger. I had no clue it was so historic. Thanks for this video!
Lets pour one out for our boy Falcon's Flight.
i like how you mentioned mindbender since its super iconic but on january 30 2023 it permenantly shut down and was dismantled to make way for new atractions and they are family thrills inside of a big area and i would love for you to talk about it in a video
Hey! I’ve loved ur vids! Can u do a vid on best six flags coasters? Please include six flags over ga thanks!
honestly, the kingda ka surprisingly gets scarier every time you go on it, theres a sign that states "On occasion, the Kingda Ka train will not make it over the hill, the ride has been designed to safely roll back down the hill." the scare factor of that sets in and it feels more likely to happen, living in Nj, ive been on it many times but it hasnt happened to me im pretty lucky
I know Kingda ka was actually featured in math problems in some textbooks.
@Ringsofearth I’ve seen it in physics books too. I’ve actually rode TTD in 2010.
I remeber that Cedar Point’s coasters circa 2004-2005 were featured in my 7th grade math Textbook.
Lucky you. When I was in middle school, our math textbooks had Manhattan Express on them.
@@BAKU2K2 what state? Nevada?
@@DoswarePictures Florida. (unless if you're referring to the coaster)
Every tall, dangerous coaster: I am the most dangerous coaster ever!
Action Park: Alright everybody! We need some plastic bottles and masking tape! We are making another coaster
Action Park Employee: We ran out of masking tape though!
Action Park. What! How! We had 200 Tonnes of it!
Action Park Employee: There was the 9999999999999999999th lawsuit and they took away the masking tape!
Action Park: Ok then! Get the emergency Flex Seal!
Action Park Employee: We don’t have any! We can’t use it to build a.. safe attraction
Action Park: How dare you use those words! GET ME SOME PVA GLUE NOW!
Pour one out for all those Arrow Loopers...
"No manufacturer has ever managed to build higher than Kingda Ka" I think it may be more accurate to replace the word "managed" with "bothered". Eltororyans video on Maverick is a great testament to this
yall the "Wild One" has been called Lil Dipper for about 5 years now
I recently rode Kingda Ka and it’s insane! When you go up the top hat, it’s so high that your ears start to pop
Looks like everyone’s too afraid to say this, so as a Japanese I’m gonna say this.
It takes some f***ing balls to name a roller coaster that’s just 50 miles away from Nagasaki “Atomic.” I honestly think it’s hilarious.
That was a great video!
How about doing the history of the largest drop?
Me: YAY! Another upload
TPC: no it is a re-upload
Me: aw man...
you forgot fury 325 as the full circuit lift hill coaster . i think it definitely should of got a mention, but awesome video overall
I thought desperado held the title for a short time, in primm Nevada. Also Viper at magic mountain?
Desperado opened after The Big One, and Viper opened after Magnum XL-200.
Viper held the record for the tallest looping coaster for many years tho.
@@ThemeParkCrazy Correct. However, Desperado did outdo PMBO in equalling Steel Phantom's drop record (225ft), so could be considered the Real co-tallest full circuit at that point. Also, important we don't forget Goliath @ SFMM (255ft drop) surpassing Fujiyama (230) three months before opening of MF.
Honorary Record Holders.
Btw..... OUTSTANDING effort TPC :)
Coaster: *has a “.” in the stats
Theme Park Crazy: I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see that.
Hi, considering there are Roller Coasters enthusiasts watching all over the world, can you consider adding metric system information to your next videos. Its just a quick info that would be useful to the rest of the world.
Love your videos! Please make captions/subtitles available if you can
It wouldn't be a Theme Park Crazy video if it wasnt a reupload
I'm going to carowinds tmr and can't wait to ride the fury 325
It’s really fun
Aw you forgot The Fury 325 in Charlotte, NC!
Fury 325 opened in 2015 long after Kingda Ka took the record
Great video man, u damn well did ur research. Keep up the great work man!
I’d like to see the evolution of the largest drop too
I want to ride kingda ka. I think they should keep it around. Mind you I'm a year late on commenting but hey. If you have the tallest roller coaster in the would wouldn't youi keep it?
Good video but you did skip over Steel Phantom at Kennywood. It’s second drop surpassed Magnum in 1991.
The tallest coaster I've ever been on is Goliath at Six Flags Magic Mountain! that first drop has stayed with me since my first time on that coaster. I miss riding Roller Coasters. :'( the thrill is unlike any other.
