No, the height is pretty damned terrifying! It looks like nothing in the video but it is over 45 stories high and you drop straight down! You can see parts of Australia when you're up there! But at almost 130 mph, the speed isn't just a joyride either! I went to Cedar Pointe to ride their version of it (Top Fuel Dragster) to ride it for the first time, but of course it gets shut down and I missed the opportunity 😡 I don't think they even have a reopening date yet. Damned Ohio! Their two super coasters almost made up for it though...
i rode this 3 times in 1 day, one time with fog everywhere, when you got to the top, you were just above the fog and it looked crazy cool, all you could see was just a thick layer of clouds a couple feet below you and stars and the night sky right above you, it felt uncanny, i’ll never forget that experience
Sir! I LIKE UR DISCRIPTION OF EXPERIENCE FROM TOP AND DOWN OF RIDE OF ROLLER COASTER WITH HIGH SPEED AND ALTITUDE PLZ ASSURE US OF SAFETY GUARD FOR RIDERS.- H.S.
My jaw literally dropped. It's one thing seeing the speed in a ride pov, but seeing it from the side, you really get to see how fast it's going. I think I'd melt into the seat
You pretty much do melt lol, they offer pics on the way out and everyone's face is just MUSHED back The speed is cool (0-128mph in like 3.5 sec) but the drop is craziest part (456ft) Still, to me, the best ride at this park will always be Nitro. Check out a POV video of Nitro at Six Flags Great Adventure
I screamed like a little girl when that shit launched me skyward. I blacked out near the apex and my bro had his shades float off his face in a zero G moment.
Holy crap! When did you regain consciousness? And did it take you a moment to reorient yourself or did you know exactly what just happened? I'm curious what it feels like to black out on a coaster!
@@Irish_Georgia_GirlI blacked out on a coaster when I was 14. And the funny this is that you don’t even realize what happened 😂. It only takes a few seconds before regaining consciousness. When you wake up that’s like nothing happened and you keep screaming lmao
I'm glad I stumbled across this video. I'm 13 and still felt sad for being scared of it, seeing other people my age doing it with no problem and loving it. It's like a part of me was preventing me from riding a roller coaster, but a part loved it. I'm slowly starting to try things to get out of my comfort zone. I think you just have to go for it, and not think. To laugh. Cheer !
@@salocin6125 no offense, but I have studied the power sources of speed in roller coasters and while yes I suppose that it can help with cooling the water pressure powers the 128 mph ride launch.(I’ve actually traveled to New Jersey to ride this one ^v^)
@@daniellelampert9911 no offense, but i have eyes and i see water exiting along with the cable. you dont power hydraulic launches by pushing the cable with water behind the train😂
Honestly people forget that rollercoasters aren't even about the fear of heights, but he actual drop giving you a CRAP ton of G forces, the put in into perspective, a rollercoaster could give you 5 G's, this is FIVE times the normal pull of gravity (also worth noting that jet fighters pass out because of G's lol)
@alishacruz9573 My friend asked if I would wear a diaper going on that ride and I said yes I would, because knowing me, I'd definitely pee my pants. No way in hell am I going on that.
It looks bad, but it's meant to do that. All coasters have to have some flex. If the coaster didn't flex a little bit, it would actually break from the stress. The flexing removes some of the stress from the train.
They are! It will be out next year supposedly! "Top Thrill 2 Have a need for speed? Get revvved up in 2024 and buckle in as Cedar Point introduces Top Thrill 2, the world's TALLEST and FASTEST triple-launch strata coaster.

The shaking is perfectly normal. It's for shock absorption. Ever seen a video of this one earthquake in Japan I think it was.... with all their skyscrapers shimmying and waving just like that... except more drastically? Freaked me out when I first saw it as a kid, but learned that they're supposed to do that...in fact that's why th didn't collapse! Because they'd been built to absorb the shock and be flexible. But dang it looks weird af! They're just a waving and wiggling like dancers.
Every coaster track shakes it has to, if it didn't move it'd shred itself the first time it was used. Even skyscrapers move around a lot for the same reasons
I’m one of those crazy people who isn’t afraid of any ride and will literally ride anything, yet this ride absolutely terrifies me. Even though I’ve ridden it three times!!!
That looks awesome. Because I'm short-sighted I take my glasses off on roller coasters and I don't get the visual stimuli/fear others do. I need high doses to get a decent rush. This looks the business 😍
Cedar Point had to send an employee to climb up and literally give the coaster a shove when it got stuck like that. It happened a lot. These coasters had serious teething issues as it was cutting edge technology. I think in the end they were innovative but kind of failures and not that economically successful. I think Top Thrill is being torn down.
Sometimes, depends how the carts are weighted. It's never happened to me the few times ive been on it. I've seen it come to almost a full stop up top but then make it over, never seen it come back down backwards. Though it occasionally happens, supposedly
I don’t know if it’s ever gotten stuck at the top but it will roll back at full speed and land in the catch back, which safely brings you back to the station, they then give you the opportunity to get off and put new people on, then they send you back out
I sure hope so. Doesn't look like they'll be doing the tallest but I can't wait for my dragster to reopen as whatever it's gonna open as. 8.1.23 well know!
If you’re new to coasters and are terrified to ride this, just know that the height and drop are virtually nothing after that launch. You don’t even realize how far you drop before the ride is over. It’ll be the craziest 35 seconds ever, but so worth the rush.
Sometimes it doesn't make it to the top and plummets down backwards. It's awesome. Except that they have to close the ride to get an engineer to double check nothing broke.
They definitely dont have to get an engineer. Ive worked this ride. Something as simple as a gust of wind can cause a roll back. They just send it again.
@@adamisveryweird3854 stop talking out your neck. They use an lsm brake system to stop the trains and theres literally no higher standard for braking in the world. Theyre literally magnets. The entire problem with both TFD and kingda ka is the hydraulic launch system. Go mansplain somewhere else.
@@chrisbruchak4519 Yes, rollbacks can be caused from a gust of wind, but you are right that it is mostly the launch system that causes this. Also, dedicated magnetic brakes are not LSMs or LIMs, they're alloys, usually made of Copper or Aluminum. Those fins interact with fixed permanent magnets on the train, creating a braking force in the opposite direction due to something known as eddy current.
Rode it yesterday, my first major coaster. You couldnt even see how high you were, and you didnt really see the drop. Just the launch that is forceful, fely like the trsck wqs 10 miles long
It was out of service when I was there in June. My best friend never rode it because ever time throughout his life when he'd go there, it was always shut down.
Same!!!! And even if someone offered me to have s*x, I STILL would never get on it! And Idgaf what some people say or think of me, I STILL would never get on it! Period!!
I’ve been on this ride close to a dozen times. The launch is insane. Blink and you’re halfway up. First row is nightmare fuel. Back row you’re legit worried you’re gonna fly out. Last time i went i had both hands up first row for the first time and it’s possibly the scariest experience I’ve had.
Honestly the craziest part, is how it’s over before you even have time to process what just happened! But 10/10 super fun, would definitely plan another trip to NJ to ride again
I been on this with my kids so many times. Hell of a short ride. Everyone thinks on there first time that the tall section is the scariest part, oh how they where so confused, the launch is what rips your soul out your body.
I tend to avoid King Da Ka because of how much of a bad headache I get after but when I do I always expect the “being at the top” part being the worst but man that launch is so fast that I can’t even scream or react I’m just frozen in place.
These trains are really heavy! They weigh about 15 tons, so they don't get top fuel acceleration, but it still easily beats a Tesla. Restraints for rides are really heavy because they not only need to work, but they also need to open and close easily and quickly, and fit a variety of people comfortably.
Why isn't there anywhere a MASSIVE coaster with three of these, loops, etc which lasts 25/30 mins? I'd like to go on that - you could make the middle/end as good as the start of the terrain was right. It would be epic 🤘
@@PlatinumEagleStudios guess it depends how much you like the coaster right? To each there own..im just saying...I've actually been there many times and got walk ons
@@jeffbizie And that's when the ride is worth it 🙂. But I personally think it's bad if the line is like an hour long. You gotta agree with that. I'm pretty sure you would hate waiting like an hour just for a 25 second ride.
@@PlatinumEagleStudios I would agree with that..I do not like waiting in line lol. I always get flash pass ,fast lane/quick que. I was only stating I've seen the ride line not always a full que..not that it's worth it🤣 but yes I do agree. I wouldn't even wait longer than 40 to ride fury325 or iron gwazi if i didnt use fast lane/quick que and those are some of my favorite coasters lol.
I have one word for this nightmare: WHY???? Not in a million years, for perfect health and all bills paid forever with MY Ryan Reynolds sitting next to me, would get me on this thing.
It’s not the height that’s crazy, it’s the launch.
Ikr!
I’ve seen crazier so think of it as height
That's how am with Popeyes macaroni and cheese. God love that stuff! It's so delicious. Makes me nut

Idk how the roller coaster can manage that freefall without falling or getting damaged its just impressing of how human technology works.
Ive rode it & it's fun but unless you get at opening & ride it. It's not worth it bc it's such a short ride & such a long wait in line
Not true..ive been there on days its 20 minute wait..just depends when your going
@@jeffbizie True, but it's still not worth it if it is really busy. Waiting like an hour for a 25 second ride is obviously stupid.
@@PlatinumEagleStudios guess it depends how much you like the coaster right? To each there own..im just saying...I've actually been there many times and got walk ons
@@jeffbizie And that's when the ride is worth it 🙂. But I personally think it's bad if the line is like an hour long. You gotta agree with that. I'm pretty sure you would hate waiting like an hour just for a 25 second ride.
@@PlatinumEagleStudios I would agree with that..I do not like waiting in line lol. I always get flash pass ,fast lane/quick que. I was only stating I've seen the ride line not always a full que..not that it's worth it🤣 but yes I do agree. I wouldn't even wait longer than 40 to ride fury325 or iron gwazi if i didnt use fast lane/quick que and those are some of my favorite coasters lol.
I have one word for this nightmare: WHY????
Not in a million years, for perfect health and all bills paid forever with MY Ryan Reynolds sitting next to me, would get me on this thing.
Why not?
@@lemmofemmo because it’s insane and terrifies me- ‘nuff said really in first response!!!
@@elaineb4490 it's like 20 seconds
@@lemmofemmo and that would seem like 20 years to me.
because we like fun and you don't
That looks sooooo fun!!
The rollercoaster: time to go crazy
*proceeds to make 20,800 hp*
That coaster is struggling.
Yeah l notice that noise before they start scared me 😮😮😮😮
@@tamara40 Those noises are normal.
Did anyone see that person falling off☠️☠️
No, just you
people don’t fall off rides unless the regulations aren’t followed
That was a bird....
I love the sound of the winch winding
Bro got some speed
One of my favorites. This coaster is definitely for the adrenaline junkies like myself. One of the best coaster’s I’ve ever ridden.
Literally the ONLY thing on my bucket list..
That looks extremely fun 😀
I’ve gone on so many school field trips to six flags I’m telling you this ride is not for the weak. I’ve seen grown men cry & ditch the line.
As someone who went on this ride on a rainy day August 2017 it was so epic!
Is anyone gonna talk about how the whole thing was shaking at the very end
No, because this ride has operated safely since 2005 and it's designed to do that.
Lmao dude with his arms didn’t realize how strong that force would be.. he couldn’t even hold them straight.. didn’t know what to lol
once u ride this roller coaster, ur gonna feel like u can ride any other roller coaster in the whole six flags
This roller coaster is so much fun. I can’t wait to do it again. Next time I go to Six Flags NJ
