Kingda Ka

The fierce Kingda Ka is simply the tallest, fastest roller coaster on Earth. This remarkable thrill ride breaks all world records for coaster speed and height, zooming from
0 to 128 mph in 3.5 seconds and catapulting you 45 stories into the sky.

  • Get propelled horizontally at 128 mph via hydraulic launch
  • Hang on tight as you shoot 90 degrees into a quarter-turn
  • Blast 456 feet high, then plunge vertically into a 270-degree spiral
  • Experience weightlessness as you swoop down a valley and up a 129-foot camel hump
