  • skip to 2:13 for the rollback

  • I believe they people who are working there just want more fun and do that twice a day. :D

  • that coaster is beast but God it just kept breaking down over and over and over and over

  • Which is better Kingda Ka or Xcelerator?

  • @iTurf707 Kingda Ka. But Top Thrill Dragster is way better then Kingda Ka

  • @NorthwestCoasters17 soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo not true

  • @coasterkid95 TTD has always been the best Intamin excelerator. 

  • its not that fast and doesnt seem like a long time of fun

  • I went on this thing today...I blacked out for like 3 seconds once it took off and when I opened my eyes we were already headed down hill

  • this ride is the funnest thing ive ever done in my life

  • ive been on this. it ROCKS

  • Everytime I go to kingda ka I ask my dad to sit the back so theres a rollback evrytime

  • @Vorox144 LMAO!

  • @Vorox144 bro inbox me the next time u go

  • @Vorox144 :D that is hilarious

  • Every time i go to six flags kingda ka I ask my day to sit in the back so the roller coaster does a rollback Its awesome

  • is it worth it to go to six flags on a tuesday during school in may? the lines will be shoter, but the park isnt open as long. Thanks

  • they use a catapult from an aircraft carrier to launch it.thats the only way to get it up there

  • HOW DO WORKS KNOW HOW HIGH THERE R LOL :)

  • wat? I guess they look down

  • ya maybe sorry nvm idk wat i just ask it didnt make sence lol

  • it looks fun i want to go on when they have a roll back!

  • i wanna go on this soo bad...someone describe the cars to me cuz i really wanna make sure i dont go in the orange car

  • Both car are really fun. They have 4 all togther. But, it eally dosent matter. You just wanna be lucky to get in one. Honestly, its the most amazing ride in the world. 45 stories high, 128 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds... its crazy. lol I went on it twice and it was really fun.

  • @WaffleFight I've been on it 15+ times and I haven't been on a rollback yet): I can't wait til I'm on one ahahaha.

  • you should give it a race.

    BTW the orange car has a some rare problems, it has like the record for most rollbacks

  • i wana be on it when it rolls back lol so fun

  • the ornage car never makes it..

  • haha :D vicitm! there's no british themepark which is better than !one! german themepark :D !!

  • Thorpe Park... are you german?

  • no i'm not german :D

  • alton towers?

  • Where is Kingda Ka?

  • New Jersey, jacksonville

  • Cool thanks

  • I've been on Kingda at least 7 times and everytime it did not rollback. lucky

  • I would ride either until they did a rollback

  • how was it?

  • 2:11  - Its then when it rollbacks!

  • Have u ever been on Kingda Ka when it did a rollback?

  • No, but I have been on Dragster at Cedar Point back in 2003 (the opening year) when it did. As there pretty much the exact same ride, im pretty sure that it would be the exact same feeling.

  • I have been on the Dragster 5 times and 2 of them it rolled back.

    The kingda Ka i was on it twice and it rolled back once

  • It sure did the 2nd though!!!

  • the first time it did not even rollback!

  • Wow That Is AWESOME KINGDA KA IS THE BEST

  • yeah this ride is only faster than xcelerater in knotts berry farm CA By only 4 sec of thime

    ......... this ride is still cool

  • What does this mean?:: how come the green car makes the orange car dosen`t?

  • I hope it has really good brakes!!! I woulld freak out!!! They didn't even look scared!!!

  • the brakes are magnetic,

    that means: they will always work. Even if there is a electric faillure

  • OMG thats got to suck

  • new jersey. six flags

  • where is that ride

  • Its at Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey. They also have pretty much the same ride at Cedar Point Ohio called Top Thrill Dragster, only Dragster is 36ft lower and around 8mph slower. But you dont notice that in all honesty when your actually on them.

  • how come the green car makes the orange car dosen`t?

  • Judging from how slow it was climbing the hill I would say the ride E-stoped towards the end of the launch causing the speed of the train to decrease resulting in the train rolling back.

  • Number 1.

  • I dont care who copied who?

    Honestly Xcelerator was the first of its kind.Sure you can put thumbs down but it's a fact!Check the years they were made in!

  • I agree. Xcelerator is also an awesome coaster :)

  • And it has more than just one or two little drops.

  • lol that wasnt even close to getting over

  • when it rolls back doesnt it start over again until you actually make the huge drop

  • yeah u get to launch again

  • i love this ride so much. but i just doint get one thing when u wait in line for w.e row u choose to sit. how come tht one flag thingy hangin with all the info. y does it say 458 ft into the sky.. i thought it was 456 ft high

  • i was there today and was actually wondering about that cause i saw it too.

  • When I went on TTD it was much more reliable. It didn't break down once. When I was on line for Kingda Ka it broke down twice. Once when I was 6th for the front then another right when I was at the gate =O. Then it shutdown for like 2 hours like 15 minutes after I got off. Still my favorite coaster though.

  • mastertaylor, it's technically a "break down", it's more like all the boosters didn't launch and they had to restart.

  • ya, and they also can't run it when the wind is over 25 mph, or around there

  • Top Thrill Dragster got built through out the winter of 2002 and opened 2003. Kingda Ka Opened in 2005. TTD could not have 'copied' KK because it was built 3 years before it !! TTD I have to say is the better ride of the two. KK is awesome as well, but TTD has a better restraint system and seems so much smoother (due to no vibration). But your right about the stats. The only thing your not taking into account is over launches that can push the top speed of both coasters up by between 7-8mph.

  • I agree with you xtremecoasters, TTD does have a way better restraint system. It gives you more of a thrill.

  • you're right about the restraints, TTD's restraints are a lot cooler, it makes the drop seem scarier than Kingda Ka's because there's less holding you in. I still like Kingda Ka better though, the airtime hill at the end is so awesome, you can barely keep your eyes open, the final stretch on TTD seems boring to me =O.

  • no your wrong though it says 458 feet in the station they announce just before you go to the launch area you are soaring 456 in to the air ha you just got oned

  • Don't you just hate it when morons like this think they're so smart... TTD opened in 2003, Kingda Ka didn't open until 2005, secondly They're different rides because Kingda Ka features a 130 ft. airtime hill (ok.. somewhere in the 130s) but anyway, thirdly they're both designed by the exact same company, so basically it's equivalent of copying yourself...

  • The point is that they all copied xcelerator at knotts berry farm.

  • ralph627: Retard. Top Thrill Dragster was built in 2002-2003. Kingda Ka was built in 2004-2005. How can Top Thrill Dragster be a "Fu**en imposter" if it came 2 years before Kingda Ka? Get your facts straight!

  • Yeah go ahead and say that until you realize that its built by same company idiot.

  • kk looks better!!

  • i've rode both kka & ttd, and i prefer kka :D

  • your all wrong people i went on that you go 130 miles perhour in just 3.5 seconds and its 456ft hight, man when i went on that nearly everybody shit there pants

  • Afraid not. Its 127mph. Thats the official speed. Look on RCDB. This has the stats and speeds of all coasters in the world. It will probably reach 130mph with an overlaunch as TTD reaches 126/127mph with an overlaunch. KK is pretty rough if your not in the front cars though Dragster321. Its not Vekoma coasters rough, but its a lot rougher than TTD. Ive been on both, and TTD is the much better ride all round. Everything about it is better.

  • The front row is as smooth as glass. The wind keeps your head against the headrest and prevents head rattling. Definately ride in the front for the best ride possible on KK.

  • its 456 feet high and 128 mph

  • it doesnt really shoot 128 mph. thats just the average. its normaly anywhere from 126-130.

  • Kingda Ka is faster and higher. I have not rode it, but opinion seems to be mixed as to which is better.I dont mind a bit of roughness if it means I get higher and faster, & im sure it cant be that bad. Not as bad as you are saying anyhow. I have ridden a lot of other Intamin rollercoasters including Dragster, & every one has been butter smooth. When your getting onto 130mph in speed, you have got to expect a little vibration. But again a great video. I have not seen Kingda Ka rollback before !!

  • Man, it nowhere near makes it over the top !! I have to say that while KK is good, its just not as good as TTD. You cant tell its any higher or faster than TTD (7mph is nothing when your already going 120mph), and the shaky launch that wobbles and vibrates combined with those OSR's that you whack you face into when going through that twist on the way down just take away from it. Maybe with better cars it would shine, but you shouldn't have to sit in the front 3 cars to get a painless ride.
