This monster's been king of the hill for years, thanks to its 456ft height and
418ft drop length. And it's about to get even crazier, when Six Flags adds a
separate drop tower ride directly underneath Kinda Ka's loop. It's called
Zumanjaro, and at 415ft, it'll snag the record for tallest drop tower ride when it opens later this year.

Kingda Ka
climbs a top-hat tower at 90 degrees. In this case, the apex of the tower
reaches a staggering 456 feet, or 36 feet taller than Cedar Point's former
champ. We're talking over 45 stories in the air. Riders don't have much time to
either appreciate the view or get freaked out, however. The trains crest the
tower and plummet 418 feet straight down the other side before entering into a
270-degree vertical spiral.

It's over in
the blink of an eye. Well, OK, 50.6 seconds to be exact -- but what an
exhilarating not-quite-a-minute.
