Some days ago I was wondering... "What is the tallest rollercoaster ever existing ?"

The answer is short, but strong : the KINGDA KA.

So, what special stuff does this kingda ka have ?

It's just about 140m tall (space mountain in eurodisney is 40m tall), it doesn't last much time, but let's say it : you have to be fucking crazy to ride this thing.

You reach 200km/h in 3.3 seconds, the train has to be propulsed at this speed to reach the top of the rollercoaster, but sometimes... sometimes it's not possible for the train to reach it, you have what they call a rollback : the train follows the same path, but backwards !

Let's take a look at this picture, do analyse with precision the left side of the image, the train rails are making a loop in this descent ! At this moment of the fall, you can reach... weightlessness.

As a conclusion, to convince you that you won't be strong enough to ride the kingda ka, let's have a look on what is a rollback... on tape.

Fear my friends, FEAR.
