Six Flags has opened a jaw-dropping new roller coaster at its brand-new park, Six Flags Qiddiya City, and it’s already rewriting the record books.
The Falcons Flight ride towers nearly 640 feet tall, stretches over more than 13-thousand feet of track, hits speeds in excess of 155 mph, and lasts more than three minutes, earning bragging rights as the world’s tallest, fastest, and longest coaster.
The park, which is Six Flags’ first in Asia, is located less than an hour outside Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and also features several other record-breaking rides plus 18 attractions designed for families and younger guests.
Officials hope the massive new destination will boost tourism and give locals a world-class theme park without leaving the country.
