Look at those advertisements. Once it used to fit in with the ride ( Green Painted Cars ) But now its just looking like graffiti is being slapped onto it. Six flags is going down to shit. It wouldnt suprise me if they closed or went bankrupt in the next coming years :L
@jordanthecoolcracker It's made by the same manufacturer, calm down dude, if you don't like Kingda Ka, keep it for yourself cause this one is faster, better and higher than Top Thrill Dragster. Saying this one is a copy of Dragster is just like saying Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 is a copy of Roller Coaster Tycoon 1.
@gagacody umm sry bro but kingda is holdin the record for tallest coaster in da world @456 feet sryy to tell ya but its better then top thrill dragster
@Goldenkey13 I haven't rode "Kingda Ka", only "Top Thrill Dragster", and let me say, I find it extremely hard to top its brilliance. First off, since "TTD" debuted first, people will already get used to the feeling so when they got on "Kingda Ka", the trick would seem outdated. Second of all, taller and faster could mean even less if you OTS-restraints. With TTD's lap bars, the freedom is amazing. Now am I saying either coaster is better? No, only have been on TTD. How is KK better? Honestly?
But remember, Top Thrill Dragster will ALWAYS be an original and the first kind to shoot people above 400ft! To be honest, TTD is a real Strata Coaster!! Sorry KK fans!

Hey Robb, will you do offride shot like this for my favorite coaster, The Rattler at SFFT next time you guys have a trip to Texas? I know most people hate the ride, but I love it. Nobody seems to have much in the way of offride shot for the ride.
Are those magnetic brakes on the top of the hill new? I don't remember them being on the ride the last time I rode it, though I was honestly more focused on the view at that point. :p
@JerseyShore117 It's just too intense for my liking. I'm pretty sure (I really cannot be bothered with the maths right now) that Stealth's 0-60 is quicker than KK and TTD. It also hurts my back a little :/
@JerseyShore117 It's impossible to describe to someone what it's like who hasn't been on it as it doesn't feel like acceleration, rather just the speed suddenly hits you and feels instantaneous ! Awesome, but just a little too powerful for me.
I always wanted to see the gut's to the beast in operation! Ha looks way more controlled then I thought it would, that's some good engineering going on in that thing at 1:35 I expected it to shake a bit, such a smooth handling of unimaginable horsepower and force! Truly a marvel.
@luigidude44 Only the POV is old footage. The rest of it was shot in August 2011. Like it says on the video, the very first thing you see, the POV was provided by the park. The rest of the footage, was shot by us. Since the park doesn't allow cameras on the ride, we had to work with what they had available. These are some of the best off-ride shots you'll see of Kingda Ka as guests are normally not allowed in these areas and backstage in the hydraulic room. Hope you enjoyed it!
@themeparkreviewTPR I went to Six Flags in August 2010 and I got right under the ride too. I didn't know it was restricted area but I got the same shot if the spiral from below
You wait in line for hours for a minute ride. I'd have to say Top Thrill Dragster and Cedar Point is better, in my opinion, but Kingda Ka is good too. Rode it right in the front(:
I really enjoy these elements when you go "back-stage"! ;) but is it possible that you could make an interview with the people working there, or someone's opinion 'bout it, you know what I mean? That would be very interesting in future episodes to watch, than just a POV! :)
@NicaraguaHD wait till your at the top then tell me its not tall lol i went on that and it was AWSOME the only really scary part was coming down, but i rode it like 5 gabillion time
@LeeClaxton Like you can do better with your shit videos of not even being on the rides, these guys have mounted cameras so STFU. And thumbs up whore below me.
Look both up on Wikipedia and rcdb and it states that it is the fastest in the world... and look at the Guinness book of world records... that also states that it is the FASTEST coaster on earth
@LeeClaxton Its mounted idiot so its not shitty at all. I bet if you went a freaking Junior Coaster you would have a worse POV cause youd be scared.So don't go saying other peoples POV's are suckish if your's would be worse.
Went on it at night in front row waiting a hour for front row awesome ride
