Kingda Ka has Officially Closed Forever | Why Six Flags is Taking Down the Worlds Tallest Coaster

For 19 years, Jackson New Jersey has been home to the worlds tallest roller coaster, and the fastest operating coaster in the United States. Kingda Ka has stood as a global icon with its 456 foot tall top hat, giving riders the experience of rocketing to the sky at 128 mph. It was beloved by many, and now, has given its final rides. Six Flags Great Adventure confirmed the attractions closure, alongside Zumanjaro Drop of Doom (the worlds tallest drop tower), Green Lantern, Twister, the Parachutes, and Skyride.
