Dodonpa - Fuji-Q Highland

This video highlights some of the sights and sounds of Dodonpa, one of the world's fastest (0-106 in under 2 seconds) roller coasters. Located at Fuji-Q Hightland in Japan, this is one of the few rides I have ridden that I left shaking.....in a good way of course.

the only resemblance in this and hypersonic  is the hill and drop a 90/90 hill

[SeanFlaharty]

@jmichael1holmes - Actually, the hill does look and feels a bit different than Hypersonic's. The large tower hill on Dondonpa is more 'spread out'...if that makes sense. Also, the initial trains used on Hypersonic were the same type used on Dondonpa. I can't remember how many different types of trains Hypersonic had but they were different in later years before the coaster was removed.
