I had thought Japan had come out with something after Kingda Ka but I was wrong. It is still the tallest at 456 feet. I have been on Top Thrill Dragster. What a Rush.

Kingda Ka - Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, NJ. The ride is very similar to the Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio and was built by the same company. However, it is taller and faster. The rush of a 130 mph launch is unbelievable - you can literally feel the flesh on your face getting pushed back. Then there is the 90 degree vertical drop straight into the ground on the way down. I will say, however, that the Top Thrill Dragster is better done than Kingda Ka in terms of presentation. The whole drag race idea with the Christmas Tree lights, the grandstand, like in a real drag race, and the speed display are all missing for Kingda Ka. In Kingda Ka, you pretty much have no presentation at all. The rides are really much the same - really, do you notice a couple of extra feet in height and a few less miles per hour when you're on a ride that lasts all of about 30 seconds?

Kingda Ka at Six Flags Great Adventure (Jackson, New Jersey) is currently the tallest (456 ft) and fastest (128 mph) roller coaster in the world.

whoever said topgun doesnt need to ever answer a question about coasters.
AND SOMEONE SAID THEY THINK IT IS AT EPCOT!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA. DOES EPCOT EVEN HAVE A ROLLER COASTER? IF THEY DO IT DOESNT RANK IN THE TOP 1000 FOR HEIGHT OR SPEED. NOW THAT IS COMEDY.
i was gonna say the one at cedar point, but i am excited to learn of the one at six flags in NJ! it is only a little faster and little higher than cedar point's, but i was unaware of it. thanks
