  3. It is the tallest ,Fastest, and it has the largest drop out of the steel rollercoasters.

    Though it is not the longest or the most steep

    Longest: Steel Dragon 2000 with 8,133 feet long.

    Steepest: Vild-Svinet with 97 degrees

  4. kingda ka IS ( so far ) the tallest fastest coaster on earth like i said so far

  5. Yes, Kingda Ka at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey is the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world. It was built by Intamin AG and opened in May 2005. It is 456 feet tall and launches from 0-128 mph in 3.5 seconds. It surpassed Top Thrill Dragster's record of 420 feet and 120 mph in 3.8 seconds. Top Thrill Dragster is located at Cedar Point, which has the most roller coasters in the world at 17. Top Thrill Dragster and Kingda Ka were both built by Intamin AG. Many roller coaster enthusiasts (including me) are mad at Six Flags Great Adventure because they built Kingda Ka purely for record breaking only. They are the same type of roller coaster. The only differences are that Kingda Ka is 36 feet taller and 8 mph faster than Top Thrill Dragster, plus Kingda Ka has a 129 foot tall camelback hill at the end of the ride. Top Thrill Dragster opened in 2003 and Kingda Ka in 2005.
