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.
Among those records: Valravn will be the world's tallest dive coaster, at 223 feet high; the fastest, at 75 mph; and the longest, at 3,415 feet long. It will have the most inversions (three) and the highest inversion (at 165 feet).
