In 2017 Orlando, Florida will officially be home to the world’s tallest roller coaster, The Skyscraper. Construction on the 570 feet high thrill ride will begin next year on International Drive. US Thrill Rides founder Bill Kitchen said, “The unique design of the coaster means more incredible, heart-pounding inside and outside loops, dives, spirals, and inversions in a vertical area than riders have ever before experienced,” about the ride that travels at 65 miles per hour.
Currently Kingda Ka in Six Flags: Great Adventure in NJ holds the tallest title standing at 456 feet high. Watch a demo-video of the coaster below.
