What do think of Kingda Ka? The videos of it are Scary. There is this video where someone (Ride Inspector) is on top of the ride and it is pretty scary to look down? What are your perspectives, riders? I am curious about this ultimate roller coaster ride. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HN8nv4tVFuA, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ki3g_aMo_9Y&feature=related. I would be very traumatic, if I would go to that ride, especially I have the fear of heights. What are your words?

Well, first of all, facts. The ride goes 128 mph and is over 450 feet tall. I have been on the ride and i must say it is quite a rush! I sat in the front seat, right when the voices say "Arms down, head back, hold on! you know that youre about to go and i got very excited! The ride feels absolutely INCREDIBLE! The launch is so intense, youre get completely watered up from the air, and your mouth gets filled with air like you are in one of those wind tunnels! it is an incredible experience. Coming down is once again amazing, the siral jerks you into the side of your seat, and your freefalling at the same time! a truly amazing experience. The air hill is also very excellent. You get a nice long strong, kick of air time. The whole ride is very short, but being on top, looking down, just seems like youre up there for 10 seconds, even though its 1. I feel like you need to ride this monster! its really amazing, and videos capture NO WHERE near the experience!

I enjoyed Kingda Ka, even though it is such a short ride. The "scariest" part of the entire ride is waiting to launch, while staring down the launch track and vertical tower in the distance... The launch is incredible(even though I prefer Hypersonic's launch at King's Dominion) and it seems that you will never stop accelerating. If you wear sunglasses or eyeglasses, you might not want to wear them even though you have a strap to secure them. I was still afraid they would be damaged or lost!
It takes less than a second to climb the tower and reach the top, where you have just a split second to enjoy the view before you plummit back to Earth. I really didn't feel it-I was still recovering from the launch. After that, there is a camelback floater hill, and you are back in the station.
Over all-fun ride, but short.

TOTAL copycat of top Thrill Dragster but fun nonetheless, although neither should be considered roller coasters because they are so short a more apt term would be "experiences"
