Fans of extreme entertainment invariably line up at the entrance to the roller coaster attraction in the largest amusement parks. The structures of this plan offer visitors to ride at breakneck speed in a trolley, bending around steep turns, entering dead loops. But this is not the worst thing that the designers of such attractions have come up with for people who are eager to tickle their own nerves. In the presented material, we will consider the most terrible roller coasters in the world.

A brief excursion into history

The first designs of which resemble modern structures were organized in the USA in 1886. However, the status of the oldest attraction of this kind is the "Russian Hills", built near St. Petersburg, even during the reign of Catherine II in 1784. Therefore, in most countries, such entertainment is called a roller coaster.

The first structure that had a dead loop was built in the USA in 1976. Since that time, the creators of such entertainment have set a course for the construction of slides, which should, first of all, frighten and surprise thrill-seekers.

Kingda Ka

The presented attraction has long secured the status of the highest roller coaster in the world. The largest lift of the giant structure is 139 meters high. During the movement, the trailer accelerates to 106 km / h. It takes only 3.5 seconds to reach this speed. Further, the trolley rises to the peak of the steepest hill and breaks into a free fall.

The tallest roller coaster in the world is located in New Jersey. They have been operating since 2005. During their operation, a whole mass of emergency situations arose during the operation of the attraction. The gigantic structure repeatedly suffered serious mechanical damage. Rope connections and engines also touched upon the problems. In 2009, the metal structure of the attraction was struck by lightning several times.

Given the above, it's safe to say that Kingda Ka fully deserves the title of "the scariest rollercoaster in the world."

Formula Rossa

The attraction, located in Abu Dhabi (UAE), has secured the status of the fastest roller coaster in the world. Within 5 seconds, the trailers of the structure accelerate to 140 km / h and continue to move without losing momentum throughout the entire trip.

Visitors who are “lucky enough” to be seated in the front row are offered special goggles. Without their use, there is a high risk of irreparable damage to vision.

Tower of Terror II

The scariest roller coaster in Australia is part of the Dreamworld entertainment complex (Queensland City). Their name, which in translation into Russian means "Tower of Fear", speaks for itself.

The attraction was launched back in 1997. For 13 years, about 8 million visitors to the amusement park have swept on it. In 2010, the designers decided to modernize the attraction and make fundamental changes to it. As a result, the already large rollercoaster became even more intimidating.

After the reconstruction of the attraction, its visitors soar to a height of about 35 meters at a speed of 160 km/h within 7-8 seconds. Next, the trailer with the riders goes into a terrifying free fall from a steep hill.

The attraction is located in the German amusement park Europa Park, in the town of Baden. Entertainment became available to park visitors in 2002. To this day, Silver Star retains the status of the most gigantic roller coaster in all of Europe.

The trailers here move along rails thanks to the implementation of a complex system of chain hoists. The scariest part of the presented roller coaster is a hill with a height of 73 meters. Once at the peak, the trailer literally drops fans of extreme sports into the "abyss". At the same time, its speed reaches up to 130 km / h.

Eejanaika

The attraction is located in the city of Yamanashi (Japan). The designers themselves call it none other than 4D slides. In the course of movement, the trailer here repeatedly goes to rapidly soar upwards, performs loops around its own axis. Caught in chairs, people literally rotate 360 ​​degrees. Therefore, for those who managed to visit the amusement park in the city of Yamanashi, it is Eejanaika that tops the list, which includes the scariest roller coasters.

Superman: Escape from Krypton

These roller coasters are located in the popular California amusement park Six Flags Magic Mountain. Their height is 126.5 meters. The free fall of the trolley here is carried out from a vertical peak 100 meters long. At the same time, the speed of movement reaches 160 km / h.

smiler

It's no secret that the leaders in the construction of the steepest, highest and most dizzying slides in the world are American designers. However, a few years ago, a new attraction was opened in London, which fully deserves the title of the most terrible in the world.

Entertainment, which is located in the British amusement park, was called Smiler. The design implemented 14, which is a record number among all the rides in the world. In addition to the dizzying upheavals, crazy speed awaits visitors to the presented roller coasters. During the movement, the trolley goes around zones with realistic optical illusions, which additionally pump up fear.

Steel Dragon 2000

The roller coaster, located in the Nagashima Spa Land entertainment complex, has long lost its status as the fastest and highest. However, they still have the greatest extent. They remain the most expensive in the world due to the record weight of steel structures that went into construction. The designers of the structure were forced to resort to the creation of an extremely massive structure due to high seismic activity, which is observed in the region. The combination of the above factors makes the Steel Dragon 2000 slide quite intimidating in the eyes of visitors.

Finally

Here we have reviewed the list of the most dizzying roller coasters in the world. In fact, each structure presented in our review fully deserves the title of the most terrifying attraction, since each extreme has its own individual fear factor.

The first most extreme slides appeared in the US state of Virginia in Six Flags Magic Mountain Park. They were a construction with the world's first dead loop.

Attractions, called roller coasters, are built in almost all countries of the world, including Russia. The Top of the most terrible of them included those that are in Japan, Australia and the USA.

The scariest rollercoaster in Russia

There are much fewer roller coasters in Russia than in the same America, Australia or Japan. They are not included in any of the compiled speed or altitude ratings.

Until now, there are disputes about the country in which the roller coaster was invented. According to one version - in America, according to another - in Russia. In many countries, this attraction is called not an American, but a rollercoaster. Read on for some of the scariest rollercoasters in Russia.

Omsk, amusement park

Rollercoasters appeared in Omsk in 2001. The attraction was built in the amusement park. The slides are distinguished by rather sharp changes in height, in addition, they also have one dead loop.

Not all of these slides seem extreme. Nevertheless, having swept on this attraction, you experience a unique feeling of fear and delight.

Novosibirsk, Central Park, slides "Galaktika"

Among the Siberian cities, not only Omsk, but also Novosibirsk can boast of an extreme attraction called roller coaster.

The roller coaster in Gorky Park in Moscow is known throughout Moscow. Now they are not functioning. They are well replaced by slides in the Izmailovo park.

Top scariest rollercoasters

As you know, the most terrible roller coasters are in America, Japan and Australia. However, Europe is also joining the race for the title of the countries with the most terrible rollercoasters. Of all the roller coasters that exist today, a rating has been compiled, which includes the most breathtaking, the highest and the scariest of these rides.

Germany, Rust (Baden), Europa Park, Silver Star

The highest roller coaster in Europe is the Silver Star attraction, built and launched in 2002.

The attraction uses a system of chain lifts. The slide raises to a height of seventy-three meters, after which it circles and drops extreme sports enthusiasts at a speed of up to one hundred and thirty kilometers per hour. The site has a site not only about the scariest rollercoasters, but also about all the rides.

Australia, Queensland, Dreamworld, Tower of Terror II

The name of the roller coaster in Queensland is the Tower of Fear. It was launched for the first time in 1997. More than eight and a half million Australians managed to ride this attraction.

The re-launch was carried out in 2010, while the "Tower" became even scarier. At a speed of one hundred and sixty-one kilometers per hour, those who ride in just seven seconds rise to a height of thirty-five meters, after which they fall in horror to the bottom.

Japan, Mie Prefecture, Kavuna, Nagashima Spa Land, Steel Dragon 2000

For several years after its launch, the Steel Dragon 2000 or Steel Dragon roller coaster was considered the tallest and fastest in the world. Now this attraction has lost its leading position, but remains the most expensive and longest of these attractions.

The high cost of the "Steel Dragon" is due to the huge amount of steel used in its construction. Thus, the designers made the attraction resistant to earthquakes.

USA, New Jersey, Six Flags Great Adventure, Kingda Ka

Kingda Ka is the highest slides to date, their height reaches one hundred and thirty-nine meters. They are called a real long-liver in the world of roller coasters.

More than once, Kingda Ka had problems. So, in 2005, due to various kinds of mechanical damage, the rope system and the starting engine suffered. In 2009, the attraction was struck by lightning.

USA, Virginia, Kings Dominion, Intimidator 305

The roller coaster named "Intimidator 305" was named the best new roller coaster in 2010 and received the Golden Ticket award.

"Intimidator 305" translates as "Intimidator 305". It's scary even from the name. In fact, this name justifies itself, because it is not without reason that this attraction received an award.

Japan, Yamanashi Prefecture, Fujiyoshida, Fuji-Q Highland, Dodonpa

Dodonpa is a slide that cannot boast of either the longest length or the highest height. Among all of them, they stand out with the greatest acceleration.

The beginning on this hill is not the most frisky, which confuses the riders. Suddenly, Dodonpa accelerates in 1.8 seconds to one hundred and seventy-one kilometers per hour, throws riders up, and then throws them down in a vertical loop.

USA, California, Six Flags Magic Mountain, Superman: Escape from Krypton

The name of this Californian extreme attraction is "Superman: Escape from Krypton". It is known that it was originally called "Superman: Breakout". The name changed in 2011 after some improvements that made the slides more scary.

Today "Superman" rises to a height of one hundred twenty-six and a half meters, developing a speed of up to one hundred and sixty kilometers per hour.

Japan, Tokyo, Tokyo Dome City, Thunder Dolphin

The name of the Tokyo coaster is translated as "Thunder Dolphin". These slides cannot boast of height, acceleration or speed. Their unusualness is in a special "trick".

The fact is that the path passes through a concrete ring. In addition, on the slides, the riders go around the building at a distance extremely close to the building, which cannot but tickle the nerves.

UAE, Abu Dhabi, Ferrari World, Formula Rossa

Today, Formula Rossa slides are considered the fastest in the world. In five seconds, they are able to accelerate to one hundred and forty kilometers per hour. Those who are in the first row on this attraction are given special points. Without them, extreme sports enthusiasts could damage their eyes.

Slides "Eejanaika" can be called bells and whistles, and this is not a figurative expression. This attraction is called 4D slides. Flying, falling and making loops, riding, sitting in chairs, rotate three hundred and sixty degrees. It seems that it is impossible to create a more terrible attraction.

The scariest rollercoaster in the world today

It is known that America is the leader in the number of the highest, scariest, fastest roller coasters. Recently, the Smiler rollercoaster was erected in London, claiming to be the scariest rollercoaster in the world.

Slides are located in Staffordshire in the amusement park. They were called the most extreme for the number of dead loops - there are fourteen of them. In addition to dead loops and speed, fans of extreme sports expect optical illusions that contribute to the fear.

The steel structure of a roller coaster with an attribute in the form of a dead loop was built for the first time in the United States of America in the second half of the 70s of the XX century. Over the years of their existence, they have undergone a number of changes, and today the presence of a dead loop is not the most extreme thing that is offered to lovers of sharp emotions. The height of the ascents, the length of the descents, the total duration of the route, the speed - this is what surprises the most terrible roller coaster. It is interesting that in a number of countries they are known as "roller coasters", since their prototype is the fun of the time of Catherine II - artificial ice hills, reinforced with wooden supports.

Formula Rossa, Ferrari World, Abu Dhabi, UAE

The undoubted leader among roller coasters is Formula Rossa, which, after being built in the Emirates in 2010, became the fastest and scariest on the planet.

The developers sought to realistically recreate the atmosphere of Formula 1: within 2 seconds, the trolleys accelerate to 100 km/h, and in the 5th second - already up to 240 km/h. In connection with such speeds, goggles are a mandatory attribute for passengers to protect their eyes from insects flying in the air and possible injuries associated with large overloads.

Interesting! Another reminder of Formula 1 will be the fact that Formula Rossa is laid out in the same pattern as the famous track of the "royal races" - Monza.

It takes 1 minute 32 seconds to overcome the 2050 m long track. G-loads during the movement reach 4.8 G, which is comparable to the sensations of astronauts when a spacecraft enters orbit. The work of Formula Rossa depends on weather conditions: at wind speeds of more than 10 m/s, the attraction is closed for visiting, at speeds of more than 5 m/s, staff are allowed to make their own decisions about the possibility of skiing.

Kingda Ka, Six Flags Great Adventure Park, New Jersey, USA

The title of the highest in the world rightly belongs to the roller coaster Kingda Ka, built in 2005. In addition, they take 2nd place after the Arab record holder in terms of speed characteristics.

The attraction itself consists of 2 parts, which can be launched simultaneously, adding additional adrenaline to the passengers of both of them. The first one, Zumanjaro, consists of 3 elevators with the highest free fall design.

It is around Zumanjaro that the rails of the Kingda Ka slides are located, rising 139 m. The trolleys rushing along them accelerate to 206 km / h in 3.5 seconds, and when they reach the main peak, they fly down a spiral path at a speed of 160 km / h. During the 28 seconds that the trip to Kingda Ka lasts, here you can experience not only a feeling of delight mixed with fear, but also feel weightlessness.

The Japanese themselves and tourists of the country can test their courage on the Steel Dragon 2000 with a track length of 2479 m, which is the largest indicator among such attractions. The trolleys cover the entire path in 4 minutes, accelerating in some areas up to 150 km / h. According to the authors' idea, the silhouette should evoke associations with the teeth of the dragon's back, so the track consists of several "teeth": the first 97-meter, followed by two more 76 and 64 meters.

$52 million was spent on the construction of the structure, as the creators needed to ensure maximum resistance to earthquakes that are common in Japan. In 2003, an accident occurred on the Steel Dragon: a wheel flew out in one of the cars, as a result of which a passenger received a back injury, and a knocked-out wheel wounded a tourist in the thigh while swimming in the pool in the park. The attraction was repaired for 3 years and only in 2006 did it start working again.

Top Thrill Dragster, Cedar Point Park, Ohio, USA

Among the scariest rollercoasters, Top Thrill Dragster deserves special attention. During construction in 2003, they cost the organizers $ 25,000,000. The train consists of 5 trolleys, accommodates 16 people and moves at a speed of up to 190 km/h. With a rail length of 850 m, the travel time does not exceed 20 seconds.

With a maximum structure height of 128 m, the biggest adrenaline rush comes from the dangerous Top Thrill Dragster section with a 120 m twist drop where the train travels at an angle of about 90°. Throughout the journey, the roar of car engines is heard and smells are felt that imitate exhaust gases, which should evoke associations with real street racing.

The lightning speed of movement, the height of the rises are not the only things that amaze modern roller coasters. Not far from the famous Mount Fuji, the Japanese attraction Dodonpa is built, which is distinguished by the world's largest acceleration.

After the start, the trailers pick up speed of 172 km / h in just 1.8 seconds due to the use of an optical drive system. The maximum elevation of the slope is 52 m, followed by a descent at an angle of almost 90°. The extreme ride lasts only 55 seconds for passengers, during which the trailers pass 1189 m of rail.

Smiler, Alton Towers Park, Staffordshire, UK

In the English city of Staffordshire, there is a rollercoaster called Smiler - the record holder for the number of inversions, which is confirmed by an entry in the Guinness Book of Records. During the trip of 2 minutes 45 seconds, the passengers of the extreme train overcome 14 different kinds of coups and dead loops. To enhance the thrill on the slides, various optical illusions are used, for example, giant needles moving towards people.

In June 2015, there was a breakdown on the attraction, as a result of which 5 passengers received injuries of varying degrees. Smiler was closed for repairs and structural safety improvements until 2016, after which there were no more accidents.

Shambala, PortAventura Park, Spain

The largest roller coaster in Europe - Shambala - was built in the Catalan park Port Aventura and is the leader in three indicators among the rides located on the continent:

• the maximum lifting height is 76 m, which corresponds to the height of a 25-storey building;
• the highest speed of trolleys is 134 km/h;
• the longest descent is 78 m.

In total, for 1650 m of the track, you have to “take off” and “fall” 5 times. A distinctive feature of Shambhala is the opportunity to experience the so-called “air time” effect, when, when the trailers take off, passengers hover above the seat for a few moments.

The project worth 25 million dollars was implemented in 2012. There are 3 trains with a total capacity for 96 people, and the duration of the route is 60 seconds. Both adults and children over 140 cm tall can experience extreme sensations on the track with double spirals, a tunnel and dead loops.

Russian record holder

Attractions located in Russia are far from world record holders in terms of speed or altitude. However, we also have a roller coaster that allows you to experience the full range of emotions from delight to fear. At the same time, the largest of them called "Quantum Leap" is located in Sochi Park.

The height of the attraction is 58 m and the speed of the trolleys is 105 km/h, which makes it the highest and fastest in the country. At the same time, passengers will have to overcome the dead loop in the forward and reverse direction, that is, with their backs forward.

The main highlight of the Quantum Leap is 2 vertical pillars, along which the Quantum Leap trailers take off: on one of them, passengers sit face down, parallel to the ground, and on the other, horizontally with their backs down, after which they “fall” with incredible speed. The length of the tracks is 360 m, along which 8 trolleys with a total capacity of 32 passengers move within 2 minutes. Huge speed, sharp turns and 360° flips create overloads up to 4G.

In addition to the above attractions, in different parts of our planet there are many more roller coasters, which are visited by millions of fans of extreme entertainment every year. Wherever they are located, before riding the largest of them, you need to reasonably assess the capabilities of your body, because you will have to withstand descents from a height of 100 meters or more at a speed of at least 130 km / h.
