Six Flags open world's tallest, steepest and fastest wooden roller coaster. Daredevils will be flocking to Gurnee in Illinois this summer for the chance to take on Goliath - the world's tallest, steepest, fastest roller coaster. The latest attraction which opened at Six Flags Great America on Thursday is a wooden roller coaster that breaks three world records. Those brave enough to take a ride on it will be plunged down a 180ft near-vertical drop, as the roller coaster twists and turns at speeds of up to 72mph.
Jack Rabbit may not be the oldest roller coaster in the world, but it is one of the oldest continuously running roller coasters, since it has never been closed for non-operation. When it first opened, it was considered the fastest roller coaster in the world, and it has a 75-foot drop and is 2150 feet long.
