  • it may be a copy but it looks better

  • wow, what a copy off dragster.

  • Top Thrill Dragster is way better it was the FIRST stratacoaster and the best! no offense to Kingda Ka Lovers.

    TTD 4 Life <3

  • They copied off of the dragster

  • @legomodder54 they are both made by the same people...

  • the one at cedarpoint it way better

  • @hannah20cute This is 36 ft taller, 8 mph faster, and the drop is 18 ft higher, plus it has a 129 ft hill after the tower. How is Top Thrill Dragster better?

  • @DarthZorgon

    This is rougher and more uncomfortable due to the over the shoulder restraints, the height and speed differences aren't noticeable, and the 2nd hill is also negligible due to the roughness. The theme for TTD is also much more exciting, and the anticipation buildup is perfectly executed. This is after riding both this summer.

  • the fastest is in ferrari world, in abu dhabi:)

  • no its not the fastest anymore some ride in italy beat it at 150 miles per hour

  • hehe like how the person say "oh shit" when he sees the way down ^^

  • Way to copy the Dragster, Kingda Ka. -_-

    I get a pass with my friends to Cedar Point every summer so I'll always be a Dragster fan. Plus, it was the first to make records. Not the second one that doesn't compare. Sorry to all those who like KK, that's just my opinion. :b

  • @Gracieglimmerr made by same company..... -_-

  • @Gracieglimmerr I dont have an opinion on which one is better. I've been on both, and TTD seems to be smoother and a better made ride, while KK seems to be more intense and out of contol, which i like. But Kingda Ka didnt copy anyone. They were both made by Intamin, and when six flags went to them and asked for a record breaking roller coaster, thats the route they took in terms of design. A 450 ft lift hill would take up too much space, and be way to expensive. (although it would be awsome)

  • @Gracieglimmerr why does everyone say they were made by thee same company? Cedar point isnt Six flags geez

  • @Gracieglimmerr well it is made by the same people

  • The Top Thrill Dragster has a good theme, a smoother ride, and no shoulder harness. Kingda Ka is barely any faster or taller, and loses some excitement with the addition of the shoulders.

  • Kooch555 I agree top thrill dragster is the king. Kingda ka has shoulder harnesses and top thrill dragster doesn't so ttd us more thrilling

  • total agreement...the top thrill dragster is the king!!! maybe if the kingda threw in a few loops at the end it would be better but yeah...total copy....+30 feet.whos actually counting at that point??..the crest of the top thriller is like 450 feet....i'm a total pussy on two storey scaffolding.....isn't 450 high enough??

  • Grr everyone says this copied off of the dragster, well how come in the world record books under like tallest/fastest coaster it says "KINGDA KA" ??? so yeah,

  • MADE TWO YEARS AFTER TOP THRILL DRAGSTER AND THIS IS A COPIED COASTER ALSO ONLY THIRTY FEET HIGHER

  • @A13XHTV made by the same company

  • omg iv been on the dragster but this is intense!!!

  • Everyone keeps saying that Kingda Ka is a total rip off of TTD and they're the same thing, etc etc... The point is, Intamin AG made them both. They're BOTH Stratacoasters, so of COURSE they're going to be alike.

  • I've ridden every coaster that's come into my path, been riding since I was 6....BUT I don't know if I'm built to handle this one...IT'S A MONSTER!!!!!...WOW!!!...It scares me just to look at it..

  • On 7/28/2010 i ride this roller coaster master

  • It's a shame they wasted all that speed on such a short ride.

  • @sjtom57 if some of those rides are any longer it can make people pass out, because human bodies arent made to go that fast and so high, so quick, fo a long time

  • I don't really think it's a copy because hey, it's six flags who own all these park so they can't really make a rip off of something that already belong to them.

  • @bouchandre Ehh, actually, Cedar Fair Entertainment Company owns Cedar Point, so Six Flags does NOT own Top Thrill Dragster.

  • Top Thrill Dragster and Kingda Ka were both build by Intamin, the designs are similar. The fact is, Kingda Ka is 36 feet higher, 8 mph faster, and has a second smaller airtime hill. I don't know why everyone can't be content that both TTD and KK are great coasters, but the truth is, in every conceivable objective measurement Kingda Ka is superior.

  • maye some1 needs to get soon this and the ttd are exactly the same thing xcept ones red and the other1 is green

  • You said a no no word

  • i thought top thrill dragster was bigger but i read the six flags site and this sets the record. but if you watch the top thrill dragster video pov then it seems bigger

  • this ride is the stupidest thing ive ever seen, total rip off of the dragster >=P

  • @sammaster60 They are made by the same company. They can't ripoff their own ride.

  • six flags tomorrow :D

  • whats your favorite roller coaster? replay me back. mine is volcano at kings dominion va

  • Sorry but it's not the fastest anymore =[. STILL THE BEST THOUGH!

  • i rode Kingda Ka in six flags great adventure in New Jersey IT ROCKSSS

  • so did i! im going to six flags today!

  • spam

  • HOLY FUCK! this ride is huge!

  • whatever

  • yep,I agree

  • bohemoth sucks a u fuggin kidding me usa has a has like 15 rides like that bo hemoth but there BETTER

  • I saw that one, and thought, the behemoth atracts people just for the inclination, not the speed, it makes it boring, I like fast ones, and I would like to go to the kingda ka, but I'm in mexico, and my parents have no money, neithrer do I, so I gotta say, fucking economy

  • kingda ka got struck by lightning in may... it is still closed and is scheduled to open in middle of august.

  • it opend 2 nmonths ago

  • its been opend for like 2 years now

  • @kkillahhx3

    no it was closed down for almost a full season because of a lightning strike

    but it originally opened in 2005

  • the kingda ka is just a copy of the top trill dragster

  • I agree jocks

  • no it's bigger and different colors and faster and just plain BETTER!

  • @omg24no i agree its like people built the kingda ka and went 'look we built a roller coaster thats 30 WHOLE FEET higher than the top thrill dragster where such badasses'

  • this is a peice of shit

    behemoth in canada owns this

  • lol ive been on behemoth and it might be longer but this is higher and faster :p behemoth is stil pretty good tho

  • lol i went to six flags last friday and i wanted to ride it for the first time ever but it was closed lol, how do they keep this ride open when they close it so many times?

  • because when it IS open the line is about three hours long.

  • rip off of top thrill dragster this ride opened in 2005 dragster opened in 2003 and they like almost exactly alike!

  • But this is taller by like 15 feet.

  • I'd be sooo scared to ride this :) Wow, I scream my head off going 45MPH, but 128?  Wow! That's sooo insane!!

  • Comment removed

  • they cant just have lap bars and go upside down

    if it does go upside down they have to have shoulder restraints

  • Comment removed

  • "Hh Shit, Yeaaah Boy"

    hahahaha :)

  • the audio sounds like some horribly made explosion sound effect XD

  • Looks like someone isn't aware of how restraint systems work. Top Thrill Dragster, almost identical to this, has lap bar restraints.

  • Not only the biggest and fastest, but shortest. -_-

  • @Brightfur10 This is longer than Top Thrill.

  • OK one thing this ride sucks major over the shoulder restrains like the ones on this kill TOP THRILL DRAGSTER has bar restraints it gives you so much more room and when you get to the peak you can lean over for the feel that your free falling who cares if there is a little hill at the end or if its 18 feet taller or 8 mph faster

  • coastercat288:

    Someone sounds like a jealous CP fanboy.

  • he is saying the truth. ur a jealous SFA Fanboy. i think The Top Thrill Dragster IS the better one because it was built first and this is just a copied version. just with a little hill at the end.

  • PivotWithBiscuits:

    1) Actually, I'm a fanboy of neither park. I live in St. Louis, far from both Cedar Point and SFGA. Both parks are overrated.

    2) I like Top Thrill Dragster better than Kingda Ka. Tell me where the hell I said Kingda Ka was better. Seriously, where? Stop making up crap that I never even said.

    3) Intamin AG is the manufacturer of Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster. Common sense tells us that a company cannot copy their own creation. Try saying a Ford copied a Ford.

  • Exactly no fuckin park copied eachother it's called a type of roller coaster. If intamin copied itself with KK B&M must have copied itself hundreds of times with their megas.

  • omfg567:

    Haha, for a moment, I thought you were telling me that they were made by the same company-when I've said that dozens of times. Thanks for backing me up.

  • very true. shoulder restraints can be numbing. Which is why i prefer tall, fast rides with no loops. you get only the lap restraint.

  • yeah, or crotch area restrainst such as mantis of cedar point, i have blacked out from hitting my head back and fourth on that

  • If you blacked out you fainted, you may have greyed out but not blacked out.

  • Do you, on this ride, have shoulder restrains, things that go over your shoulder, or bar restraints?

  • shoulder

  • worlds tallest and fastest

  • U.S version of stealth

  • Actually you have it backwards:

    Stealth is the U.K. version of Kingda Ka.

  • I wish I could've gone on it yesterday but it was shut down

  • and wat is the roller coaster at the end?? looks scary

  • its not reall that scary

  • @amzad89 Great American Scream Machine. been up since 70's i think. i heard it was comin down for another stand up coaster in 2011.

  • wait hows u film that video on the ride??

  • Go to Thorpe Parke !

    FK This

    Stealth ROCKS

  • Im from england, and stealth is good, but its less than half the height of this, and this is 128mph compared to stealth's 80-odd, theres a bit of a difference. saw: the ride is the best thing at thorpe park. TTD at cedar point is the best of these type of coasters anyway, you only have lap restraints!

  • Ia mglad I have never ridden that coaster, I'd probably pee my pants then throw up on someone. I cant take so much force!

  • it is fun as hell, i havent ridden this one but i rode top thrill dragster which is nearly identical to it

  • Dont get me wrong people, i dont hate kingda ka but i still think that Cedar Point is more deserving of the tallest and fasterst coaster. afterall it is the roller coaster capital of the world. and i dont really give a shit if u piss and moan about this comment, Its just my opinion.

  • i just went on this yesterday. front seat baby. im lucky i did , this ride closed down literally 4 times yesterday.

  • they need to add more to the TTD & kingda ka (though ive never been on kingda ka) still it would be more fun if they added some more lenth to them or mabye a loop or somthing

  • yea

  • Does anyone who has ridden Kingda Ka know why it is so goddamn shaky after the launch (prior to ascent) and at the bottom of the spiral?

    Is it just because the sheer speed of 128 mph makes any slight imperfection in the track magnified to a violent jolt onride?

  • top thrill dragster rip off

  • erinnet113: Intamin AG manufactured Top Thrill Dragster and Kingda Ka. You might want to do some research before spewing incorrect crap. It is not a rip off.

  • im with u on this one, its such bullshit. Cedar Point deserves the record for tallest and fastest coaster.

  • Why do you react on your own comment..:S

  • wtf r u talking about i was repplying to someones

  • is it 128mph at take off or on the way down?

  • During the launch. It reaches 0-128 mph in 3.5 seconds. It only hits about 120 on the way down.

  • that was scary!

    just

    holy smoke

    crap

  • How many Kingda Kas are there? I know one in Japan and in Ohio But where else?

  • theres one in Jackson, New Jersey.

  • the one in ohio is not kingda ka its called the top thrill dragster the second tallest ride in the world

  • nope none expect for GADV thr r similar ones tho like TTD at cedar point in ohio

  • i wnet on this twice and at the top you feel like you just stop

  • ppl who say they hate kingda ka should have a gud enough reason to hate it and i dont mean ttd came first, thats a pussy excuse or kingda ka is a copy. b4 u say shit like that how about u research b4 you people start running ur mouths because kingda ka and dragster came from the same company they just made kk a little faster and a little bit taller stop bieng so fucking selfish and let another park have its moment in the sun.

  • For those that say this ride is a copy of Dragster think for a second. Why do you care? Because they made a faster and taller version in another park so more people can enjoy the basically the same ride? You people are getting all upset because more people can enjoy something you like? You think people should have to travel hours away to ride something when it's easily possible to ride it in their backyard. Maybe you people should stop being shelfish and enjoy a coaster or two.

  • @lildeadman21000 i wouldnt care except for the fact that this park is making millions from a coster design they sole from cedar point.

  • @lildeadman21000 ha okay we"ll stop being (shelfish)

  • actually top thrill came first i bet the person who designed kingda ka ran out of ideas and just added a small camel hump

  • actually retard Warner Stengel created Kingda ka AND TTD and to all other reatards who this kingda ka's a "copy-cat" its the same frickin creator so grow up!

  • oh yeah but TTD own KK and yes ive ridden both.

    TTD= 9.5/10

    KK=8/10

  • There's a new record breaking coaster in town!

    For 2009

    youtube(.)com(/)watch?v=Mh3HZw Zg49k

    Remove the ( ) And the space between W - Z

  • ok dragster was first yes. its also 36 ft taller which does make a diference.and cuz people are really paying attention tha "omg im in a dragster",no they are looking at the 400+ tower sitting infront of them..ttd still sucks!

  • dragster is slow and smaller how is it better.and it doesnt even have the second hill..dragster sucks!!

  • 1 dragster was first

    2 dragster goes 8 miles an hour slower

    big deal.

    and its more fun cause your in a racing invironment

    inside drag racing cars

  • also the restraints are crazy on dragster.

  • search this channel (Juiceblogs)if you get to it sub and if u sub him send me a message that you did and i will put your username in my next video

  • I think the dragster's better

  • "Oh shit..."

  • sweet

  • to anyone who's been on it, do you feel the butterflies in your stomach? because i went on stealth which is 220ft and i didnt feel anything so just wondering if its the same on kingda ka

  • ya you feel it, but its not scary cause its so fast, the scariest part is waiting in line

  • Stealth is 205 feet

  • i went on it. its not even that scary when your on it. only the 2 seconds when your on top is. its just so intimidating. i was almost shitting my pants waiting in line. but when it starts you dont even realize your on it because it goes up and down so fast.

  • i rode thi, big fun

  • lol "oh shit!, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH­HHH"

  • its over with too fast.

    it should be longer.

    but still looks fun (:

    not worth waiting hours for though.

  • fuck you

  • f*** thats fast!!!

  • top thrill dragster and kingda ka are made from the same company, just in different locations.

    I don't see why everyone get's so worked up about it.

  • has any1 ever heard of THE ORIGINAL TOP THRILL DRAGSTER AT CEDAR POINT? yeah do it now noobs

  • no one cares. find something better to do.

  • b4 you sat something as stupid as that, know what your talking about...

  • nice typo noob. i suggest we all get a life like branRD says

  • learn what your talking about...

  • dude no one cares

  • the thing i hate about stealth/kingda ka..ect.. is you have to wait nearly 1-2 hours and the ride is so quick its over in 10seconds, crazy shit huh?

    jee! i still love the heck out of the rides tho!

  • AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

  • Woo. That looks like a huge XCelerator.
