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

One of only two gigacoasters (complete circuit coasters with a height between 300 and 399 feet) in the world—the other being Millennium Force at Cedar Point—Steel Dragon 2000 holds the record for longest track length at an astonishing 8,133 feet. With a maximum speed of 95 mph and a height of 318 feet (it’s the 5th tallest coaster in the world) it runs almost four minutes long, so if you don’t like the ride, you just have to wait it out. Besides the three drops of over 200 feet, it’s been said the best part is the “air time” you get while racing over the bunny hills on the way back to solid ground.
