In 2023, I rode a long list
of spectacular roller coasters. We're talking roller coasters I've loved for years, brand-new roller coasters that completely wowed me, and roller coasters I've grown a new appreciation for. While I didn't travel as much in 2023
as I have in previous years, I still managed to visit
several different theme parks. I also reflected on the coasters I haven't ridden
in a few years to re-evaluate them. And in doing so, I've changed up my list
of Top 25 Roller Coasters. These are all roller coasters that I've ridden, and they can be found across a total of five
different countries and three different continents. Now if my list of top roller coasters
differs from yours, that's to be expected! If you know the exact science behind ranking
roller coasters, please let me know how that works. *My* list is based off the amount of fun I have on
each coaster and how impressive I find them overall. We'll be seeing coasters both big, small,
intense, and gentle. So, if my list triggers you,
instead of reporting my channel, drop a comment below on what your favorite
roller coasters are and let's get a discussion going. Without further ado, let's dive
into my top 25 roller coasters. Kicking things off at Number 25, we have the
intense and unique Mr. Freeze at Six Flags Over Texas. This launching shuttle coaster, built by
Premier Rides, packs a punch. The valleys between its ride elements are tight,
subjecting riders to very high positive G-forces. Especially on the second lap when you are
launched down the vertical spike into what I find to be the one of the
most intense moments on any coaster, a crushing pullout into a tight overbanked turn,
slamming you with positive G-forces. The upside-down top hat features good airtime
and laterals on the ascent and descent of both laps. And hanging upside-down while looking through
the cool support structure is icing on the cake. When I last rode in 2019, the only option
was to be launched out of the station backwards. Leading to an awesome ascent up the vertical spike
facing down at the ground. But now riders have the option of launching forwards
or backwards, thanks to the neat sliding station tracks. I'm curious how the experience is the other way around
and if a forward ride would affect my overall ranking. At Number 24, we'll have to travel around the world
where we find Fujiyama at Fuji-Q Highland in Japan. Built in 1996 by the infamous manufacturer TOGO,
Fujiyama pays tribute to the nearby Mt. Fuji. This roller coaster is incredibly tall,
has a good amount of jank to it but not too much, and features many great moments of floater airtime. But my favorite part about this coaster
is that it feels like it never ends. With over 6,700 feet (2,042 m) of track,
the ride takes 95 seconds from when you head down the first drop
to when you enter the final brake run. And that's without the interruption of
a second lift hill or mid-course brake run. The long layout is packed with long drops
filled with floater airtime, this awesome 90-degree banked turn at ground level, and these ending janky turns
with airtime pops thrown in. The ride's brake run is even placed high in the air,
meaning this coaster could have been even longer! Paired with just a lap bar, this is one of
my favorite coaster experiences. Just know that if you're a fan of
an ultra-intense coaster, this isn't that. It's more of a long floaty dream. Next up at Number 23, let's travel
back to the United States for RailBlazer at California's Great America. This single-rail roller coaster
built by Rocky Mountain Construction, or RMC, is quite the opposite of Fujiyama. It's small in height, short in length,
and ultra-intense. The tiny eight-car trains
absolutely haul through the layout, making all the ride elements feel like
a singular never-ending maneuver. As the train hauls through the ride course, you'll find insane moments of ejector airtime
that pin you up against the restraint. You'll weave over and under
different parts of the ride, and even the small first drop is mental,
especially in the back rows. The crazy part is that RailBlazer is considered tamer
than Wonder Woman at Six Flags Fiesta Texas, which is an identical mirror image to RailBlazer. I've never ridden Wonder Woman as it was closed
on my first visit to Fiesta Texas in 2019, but it's hard to imagine an even more
insane experience than RailBlazer. At Number 22, we have another contrasting experience
to RailBlazer, Millennium Force at Cedar Point. Built by Intamin Amusement Rides,
it has one of the best first drops in the world and offers one of the best
graceful, high speed sensations through its nearly 6,600 feet (2,011 m) of track. Unlike what many claim, I've always found plenty of
floater airtime on the ride's two large camelbacks. Like Fujiyama, Millennium Force
is not really an intense roller coaster. Although it *can* sustain more
positive G-forces on hot summer days when it cycles the track in less than 60 seconds. But even with a similar track length to Fujiyama,
its ride duration is over 30 seconds shorter, and it has a much smaller list of ride elements. However, I find that Millennium
offers a magic to it that not many coasters do. You also can't beat the incredible open-air trains
and minimalist T-Bar restraints. I always say that Millennium is objectively
not the best coaster at Cedar Point, but at heart, it's my favorite on the peninsula. Hopefully, Cedar Point can make
the operations of Millennium stellar again. Watching their flagship ride
operate at 700 riders per hour is just painful. At Number 21, let's trek into the woods of Connecticut
for Boulder Dash at Lake Compounce. This wooden terrain coaster,
built by Custom Coasters International, or CCI, is completely unique in that it's built into
the hillside of a small mountain. The coaster hugs the hillside as it
charges over endless floater airtime hills, races through unbanked turns
offering amazing moments of laterals, and even dashes over large boulders
sitting on the hillside, hence the coaster's name. Since opening in 2000, Boulder Dash has won
many awards and it's pretty clear why. This is quite the unique wooden roller coaster.
Now, I haven't ridden Boulder Dash since the ride's first drop was retracked with steel
Titan Track by Great Coasters International, or GCI, and I hear rumors that more Titan Track
may be on the way to other portions of the coaster. I've never experienced Titan Track,
so I'm not sure how I feel about that. So, I'll be sure to get more rides on this
coaster while it's still mainly wooden. Before we discuss why Time Warp at Canada's Wonderland
is my 20th favorite roller coaster, let me tell you about our video sponsor, Vessi,
who make my favorite shoes to wear at theme parks. Vessis are super lightweight and ultra-supportive, making them perfect
for walking around all day in a theme park. Even better, they're also waterproof, meaning you can show up to a park on a rainy day
when crowds are at their lightest and skip the waits, all while your socks remain dry all day. I'm currently rocking the Vessi Sohos
on a regular basis. They feature all the amazing qualities I just mentioned
and come in a sweet vegan leather finish. Vessi also has many other shoes in their product line
that are perfect for different occasions, like the Alta High Tops which are
perfect for walking in the snow. Better yet, Vessi also makes amazing accessories
like the waterproof Overcast Jacket, as well as these knit waterproof gloves. Not only are these gloves 100% waterproof,
but they're also stretchy. They keep your hands warm
thanks to an insulation lining inside, and are touch screen compatible.
Allowing you to easily navigate YouTube and catch up on your favorite block zone content
while waiting in line for a coaster. Head on over to Vessi.com/ElToroRyan to check out
their awesome styles and get 15% off your first order. On second thought, I just remembered
that Time Warp is much higher on my list. My *real* Number 20 is the famed Phantom's Revenge
at Kennywood in Pennsylvania. This once massive Arrow looping roller coaster
has been turned into an absolute airtime machine that takes full advantage
of the unique terrain it sits on. It's one of the few coasters where
the second drop is much larger than the first. And as large as the terrain coaster is, it primarily
consists of low-to-the-ground bunny hops that trains hardly slow down for,
sending riders flying from their seats into the oh-so-amazing lap bar restraints
that allow for ample airtime. While the ride is rather short in duration,
it makes up for that in many ways. You start off with a slow and vintage
Arrow Dynamics lift hill that leads into a classic Arrow Dynamics curving drop,
only to have the ride go mental after the second drop. Morgan Manufacturing really knocked it out of the park when they removed the inversions
of the old Steel Phantom. Now, is this the best roller coaster
in the state of Pennsylvania? Keep watching the video to find out. At Number 19, we have another epic terrain coaster
and that is the troubling Lightning Rod at Dollywood. This ride has quite the problematic history,
opening as an all Topper Tracked wood coaster to then be primarily retracked
with all steel track a few years later. And now the iconic launched lift hill will also be
replaced with a chain lift for the 2024 season. But regardless of all the problems and changes,
when Lightning Rod is open and operating, it provides one of the best
coaster experiences out there. From the perfect use of its hilly terrain
to its massive floaty opening maneuvers, the ride experience just seems to get more and more
intense the further into the layout you venture. The ride intensity kicks up
with this twist-n-shout and after that, it's nonstop pops of ejector airtime
including the famous quad down. I love that the train just gains more and more speed
and then slams into the final brake run. I do find the launched lift hill
to be a great part of the experience, so hopefully the introduction of a fast chain lift
doesn't hinder the experience too much. Next up at Number 18 is another RMC coaster,
and that is Twisted Timbers at Kings Dominion. Of the smaller-sized RMC coasters I've ridden,
this is easily my favorite. This reincarnation of the original
Hurler wooden roller coaster features an endless sea of ejector airtime hills, with a good mix of longer sustained moments of ejector
airtime that can be a bit more rare with RMC coasters, as the company tends to focus
more on quick pops of strong airtime. I love the barrel roll down drop and three
back-to-back airtime hills at the start of the ride. Like Lightning Rod, Twisted Timbers seems to get
more intense as you journey further into the layout, with the airtime pops becoming
closer together and much stronger. Some of the airtime moments can even be too much,
but I absolutely love that about this coaster. Plus, the ride has a pretty good duration
from first drop to final brake run, especially considering that the lift hill
is only 111 feet (34 m) tall. In March of this year, I took
the 5-hour drive to Kings Dominion and after just a single ride on Twisted Timbers,
I felt like my entire drive there was already worth it. That's how you know this is an epic roller coaster. At Number 17 is easily one of the most intense
coaster experiences I know of, and that is Skyrush at Hersheypark. From its crazy wing seating
to the ultra-fast cable lift hill, the insanely steep first drop with its absurd kink partway down the drop
leading to a second surge of airtime, and the other crazy moments
of ejector airtime that follow. The ride is far more intense than what
Hersheypark desired, and that is perfectly fine by me. The ride's next tallest hill is less than half
the height of the 200-foot (61 m) tall lift hill, meaning the train basically never slows down until the track profiling tames down
on the approach to the final brake run. Trains absolutely haul
over the low-to-the-ground hills, delivering pretty lethal doses of negative G-forces
that fling you into your restraints. And in between the hills are high speed turnarounds
that rattle as you experience high positive G-forces. The only downsides with this coaster is that it's rather short in duration,
and the lap bar restraints are downright awful. But hopefully the rumors are true
and Skyrush re-opens in 2024 with the newer generation lap bars
found on Intamin's latest roller coasters. Now, is *this* my personal favorite roller coaster
in the state of Pennsylvania? Stay tuned. Next up at 16 is the gargantuan Fury 325
at Carowinds near Charlotte, North Carolina. This support cracker is one of the most
picturesque roller coasters out there, both visually and from a stats perspective.
At 325 feet (99 m) tall with a 318-foot (97 m) drop, a top speed of 95 mph (153 km/h),
and 6,602 feet (2,012 m) of track, these are some of the most impressive
roller coaster stats in the theme park industry. And the ride experience is also one of the best
from the coaster's endless first drop, to the twisty outbound section of track
that weaves over the entrance pathways into the park, leading into the airtime driven finale
that delivers some of the strongest airtime moments you'll find on any roller coaster
built by Bolliger and Mabillard, or B&M. The entire coaster has an
amazing sensation of speed to it that I find a league above the similar
sensation found on Millennium Force. And the ride does so while featuring a much more
interesting layout and combination of ride elements compared to Millennium Force. The only
mildly tame section is this long drawn-out helix, but even this isn't all that bad
and helps extend the ride's incredible duration. Without question, I can easily see
why many rank this coaster even higher than I do. But is this my personal favorite B&M coaster?
It's not, actually, at least this year. My favorite B&M is actually Flying Dinosaur
at Universal Studios Japan in Osaka. This flying roller coaster is the absolute best
adaptation of this ride model that *I've* ever ridden, although I still need to ride FLY at Phantasialand. Unlike B&M's earlier flying roller coasters, such as the three Superman Ultimate Flights
or even Tatsu, Flying Dinosaur is intense all the way through. It exhibits forces I've never felt
on other flying roller coasters, like several moments of airtime that can be found
on its rather steep drop, both ends of its pretzel loop, and this speed hill midway through the ride, as well as strong positive G-forces while you are
in the flying position and not on your back, leaving you pinned to your vest restraint as you
realize that is the only thing keeping you in your seat. The ride essentially features
two pretzel loops back-to-back, thanks to this ridiculous 540-degree roll that leaves
you on your back as you ascend a large raven turn. Even this helix towards the end of the ride
leaves you pinned against the restraint the entire time, which feels completely bizarre
on a flying roller coaster. If you do get the opportunity to ride Flying Dinosaur,
I wish you luck with its ridiculous line. Next up at Number 14
is GhostRider at Knott's Berry Farm. Originally built by CCI, this spectacular wooden
roller coaster was beautifully redone by GCI in 2016 and has ridden glossy smooth and relentless ever since. Now, I never rode the coaster before the remodel
but love it for all it is in its current state. GhostRider has one of the best ride durations out there
at about 1 minute and 20 seconds from first drop to final brake run.
It doesn't have the most spectacular first drop but it's one of those coasters that gets better
the further you venture into the layout. The opening hills are fun with sustained
floater airtime and decent lateral forces, but the excitement really picks up
with this drop next to the lift hill. It delivers a solid punch of airtime, followed by
several low-to-the-ground airtime hills with laterals all contained within the structure of the ride.
And that's the theme with the ride's ending. The insanity continues into the ride's ending helix
that leaves you pinned to the side of your seat. And even after so much track, the ride
feels like it hasn't slowed down. The only thing abysmal about the coaster
is its low capacity and horrible operations. I'd love to see this ride operated with three trains
like it would be at a park like Kings Island. Thankfully, my Number 13 coaster is at a park
with fantastic operations, and that is Outlaw Run at Silver Dollar City!
This was RMC's first ground-up roller coaster and the first to debut the company's
first-generation trains, and they knocked it out of the park. Alan Schilke's creative layout through
the hills and woods of Missouri is outstanding, from the awesome first drop,
low-to-the-ground ejector airtime pops, hill-hugging wave turn,
and double barrel roll ending, it without a doubt has one of the best sequence
of roller coaster elements out there. And something I like about the coaster
is that it's not perfectly smooth, at least it wasn't on my last rides
on the coaster back in 2019. This Topper Tracked wooden roller coaster
has a few kinks and bumps to it, and that's something I like with wooden roller coasters
as it makes them feel more alive and less perfect. The only major downside with the coaster is that it's short at just over 30 seconds
from first drop to final brake run. Luckily, the amazing ride experience makes up for that,
and this is a must-ride coaster at nighttime. It's easily one of the best night rides out there. Up next, at Number 12, is my personal
favorite roller coaster in all of Mexico, and that is Superman El Ultimo Escape
at Six Flags Mexico. I always say that this Morgan hyper coaster was the
biggest surprise of a roller coaster experience to me. I was absolutely wowed by the ride's powerful
floater and ejector airtime, as well as the powerful lateral forces
in both of its helices. My favorite moment is this airtime hill
that leads into a helix. Riders in the back cars are lifted from their seats
and then thrown sideways at the start of the helix. Then, with no slowing on the mid-course brake run, the ending hills are filled with glorious
and sustained moments of airtime. I truly hope I do not overhype this coaster for you, as I had never heard a glowing review
of the ride going in. I walked into the coaster expecting a milder ride
like Wild Thing at Valleyfair but got so much more. I cannot wait to get back to Mexico
to get back on this amazing roller coaster. At Number 11, we have one of the most
unreal roller coasters on the planet and that is Steel Vengeance at Cedar Point. This RMC conversion of the former
Mean Streak wooden roller coaster combines just about everything
that a coaster lover wants into one ride. It takes the lovable RMC product
to the scale of a hyper coaster with endless airtime hills, floaty inversions, and a non-stop ride duration where you take
several laps through the same structure. The only thing it's missing are strong lateral forces... well, there are some in this
quick downhill zero-G stall, but it's not like the laterals you'll find
on Wildcat's Revenge at Hersheypark. Either way, this is still
a pretty much perfect roller coaster and it's absolutely deserving
of being someone's Number 1 ride, and I can also see why it
might not be everyone's cup of tea. At times I've found it a bit repetitive,
but I no longer find that the case and am itching to get back on
this superstar of an attraction. Also, shouts out to the Steel Vengeance ride crew who continuously crush it with three-train operations.
We love to see it. Kicking off my Top 10 coasters,
we have one of the hottest new roller coasters, and that is ArieForce One at FunSpot America Atlanta. This is the first RMC coaster that was designed
by Joe Draves, and he crushed it. ArieForce One features one of the best layouts
out there and is non-stop from start to finish. Honestly, its weakest moment is the first drop,
and by no means is it a bad first drop. The Raven Truss Dive offers incredible floater airtime
as you twist through the truss structure. The zero-G stall is perfection. The outward-banked airtime hill
flings you from your seat, as does the double-up. The quick barrel roll is absurdly fast, and the low-to-the-ground turn as you chug along
at 55 mph (88 km/h) is just insane. If you didn't already know,
ArieForce is a terrain coaster, and this curve is the lowest moment of the ride.
This leads into one of the most insane moments on a coaster, a quad down that manages to be
far more intense than Lightning Rod's quad down. I've heard many criticize it for being
too much, but I happen to really dig it. If you last rode with a loose lap bar,
it does execute better with a lap bar properly positioned against your waist. At Number 9, we have the legendary Shivering Timbers
at Michigan's Adventure, built by CCI in 1998. If you're a lover of sustained floater airtime,
this is the ride for you. It's over a mile of non-stop floater airtime hills
that seem to repeat forever. There's even great moments of lateral forces,
like on the far end turnaround and massive 630-degree ending helix. The ride also paces phenomenally, even though
it features nearly 5,400 feet (1,646 m) of track off a 122-foot (37 m) tall lift hill. Every single hill delivers excellent floater airtime.
If you're familiar with The Voyage at Holiday World, it's as if you got rid of the twister portions of
that coaster and replaced them all with airtime hills. Because of that, I can see some airtime lovers
preferring Shivering Timbers to Voyage, even if Shivering Timbers lacks the terrain change
found throughout Voyage's layout that makes it epic. Be careful, though; last I rode Shivering Timbers it had two quite nasty potholes on the ascent
up the first and second camelbacks. Other than that, the ride was actually quite smooth! Next up at Number 8, we have my new
favorite coaster in the state of Pennsylvania: Wildcat's Revenge at Hersheypark. I was a fan of the original wooden Wildcat coaster, but I'm so glad Hershey went with RMC
to remodel the coaster in such a big way. Like ArieForce One, Wildcat's Revenge is a bit more
intense than most of RMC's prior coasters. I absolutely love the work Alan Schilke did for RMC and I love that Joe Draves is taking RMC's coasters
to a whole new level. Wildcat becomes noticeably more intense in its
second half, and that's for a few reasons. One is the lateral forces experienced on the slightly downhill double down
and quick left turn into the final brake run. Two is that these lateral forces are also experienced
with airtime, making the sensations feel insane. And the third reason is a snappy pop of ejector airtime
that occurs in the coaster's first barrel roll, especially towards the front of the train.
The airtime pops are also quite intense, like the airtime on ArieForce's quad down,
just more spread out. Wildcat's Revenge quickly became
my new favorite coaster at Hersheypark and is a coaster I prefer
towards the front of the train. At Number 7, we have Intimidator 305 at Kings Dominion, which is another contender
for one of the world's most intense roller coasters. Unlike the other 300-foot (91 m) giants on this list,
like Fury 325 and Millennium Force, Intimidator 305 is wicked intense.
It actually features my least favorite drop compared to Fury and Millennium,
but what follows is just pure insanity. You are crushed with positive G-forces
in the coaster's first low-to-the-ground curve, often causing me to grey out. Next is an epic moment of sustained ejector airtime,
followed by more low-to-the-ground track taken at probably around 80 mph (129 km/h)
as you whip from side to side, experience low-to-the-ground airtime, and take more high-speed turnarounds
with high positive G-forces. There is a trim brake midway through the coaster,
but that was actually designed into the ride as the coaster still carries insane speed
all the way to the end, snapping its way into the final brake run.
Like other coasters on this list, the only downfall with Intimidator 305
is that it's rather short in duration. At Number 6 is Superman the Ride
at Six Flags New England. My rides on this legendary Intamin coaster
in July of this year led to probably the biggest climb ever
in my coaster rankings. When running properly, Superman is easily
my favorite traditional hyper coaster. It's got an incredible ride duration without the interruption of a
mid-course brake run or any dead spots, plenty of positive G-forces
in the valleys between hills, many moments of strong sustained floater airtime
as well as more powerful ejector airtime, and two helices in ride's second half
that deliver powerful sustained positive G-forces. There's even a few moments of lateral forces like on the ascent of *this* hill
leading into the spaghetti bowl, and on the second helix, probably due
to the ride's imperfect track design, which is an interesting quirk
with the ride in general. The only downside with Superman
is its absolutely awful restraints. But when the ride is running fast, it becomes obvious
why the coaster won so many awards in the 2000s. If you're not a fan of Superman because of
the U-Bricks, I do recommend giving it another try. I found a way to sit in the train
that works well for me that isn't super uncomfortable
and I'm sure you can also. Kicking off my Top 5 coasters, we have
the absolutely epic Voyage at Holiday World. Like many other coasters on my list,
this is another dream of a roller coaster. It's a mammoth of a ride, and basically feels
like a hyper coaster with its long opening drop and large opening hills that deliver
some awesome moments of sustained floater airtime. The Voyage takes the concept of Shivering Timbers
but makes it bigger, and in my opinion, does it even better. Instead of being built on flat terrain,
Voyage is built on a hill. So the entire outbound section of track goes uphill,
but the entire return run is downhill, meaning the train just gains more and more speed
as it heads toward the station. The pacing of the coaster never lets up
as it races over low-to-the-ground airtime hills or roars its way through
many of the ride's twists and curves. And for a wooden roller coaster, Holiday World
does an outstanding job maintaining it as the ride has honestly
felt smoother each year I ride it. And a night ride on The Voyage
is just out of this world, especially when the trims are off on the block brake. But even when the trims *do* hit,
the coaster is still superb. At Number 4 is VelociCoaster
at Universal's Islands of Adventure, which I'd probably consider
the world's most perfect roller coaster. VelociCoaster combines the greatest innovations
of modern roller coaster technology, the enormous budget of a Universal theme park, and the extraordinary ride experience
of an Intamin roller coaster, all into one package. The ride's presentation, atmosphere,
theming, and preshow are all great. The ride vehicles are state-of-the-art
and extremely open-air and comfortable, also allowing for quick operations
that help the long line move at a quick pace. The LSM launches aren't as punchy as Intamin's
hydraulic launches but work much more consistently. And I love that the coaster is split
into two distinct halves, with the first half being slightly less intense and
more compact, but still featuring great pops of airtime, and the second half being much larger
with crazier ride elements like the Mosasaurus roll that delivers
insane upside-down airtime. Overall, the ride has a
great duration from start to finish, is rather smooth besides some occasional
rattling from the onboard speakers, and is also intense, but not *too* intense,
that almost all can enjoy it for everything it is. Next up, at Number 3, is the roller coaster with
my absolute favorite airtime moments on the planet, El Toro at Six Flags Great Adventure.
This Intamin prefabricated wooden roller coaster delivers four ejector airtime moments
that I absolutely obsess over, and it does so while being
an actual wooden roller coaster. The long trains, combined with the steep first drop,
lead to my favorite first drop anywhere. While Skyrush at Hersheypark
has a far more intense first drop, I'd still take El Toro's first drop
over Skyrush's all day, any day. The following two camelbacks deliver my two
favorite moments of airtime on any roller coaster as you experience nearly 4 seconds
of sustained ejector airtime on each hill. I also love the rest of the ride,
such as the high-speed turnaround, this awesome moment of floater airtime
in the back of the train, and the ride's ending twister section
as you dash left and right. The ride has certainly gotten much rougher over the past
few years, and I've found the coaster harder to re-ride, but I still don't find the ride nearly as rough
as other wooden coasters I've ridden like Hades 360 at Mt. Olympus. And the ride isn't consistently intense all the way
through, but I happen to love El Toro just as it is. Overtaking El Toro this year, we have the
RMC superstar Iron Gwazi at Busch Gardens Tampa. Following my most recent rides
on the coaster in May of this year, I realized that Iron Gwazi has my favorite layout, or combination of ride elements
on all of the roller coasters I've ridden. And I love how the ginormous coaster is stacked
on top of itself with so many crossovers. The outward-banked helix of an airtime hill is insane, and the death roll that follows
is probably in my top 3 ride elements of all time. The more I rode Iron Gwazi, I realized that there
isn't a single moment of the coaster that I don't enjoy, and the ride is also intense but not *too* intense
like Wildcat's Revenge or ArieForce One can be, which means I can re-ride Iron Gwazi with no problem. And finally at Number 1, my absolute favorite
roller coaster is Time Warp at Canada's Wonderland, which, without question, was the best roller coaster
choice for such a busy amusement park. Hats off to Paramount Parks. Okay, real talk. Why the [BEEP]
is that ride at that park? Coming in at Number 1 is still Eejanaika
at Fuji-Q Highland in Japan. This is unquestionably the most bizarre
and intense roller coaster *I* have ever ridden. If you're a fan of X2 at Six Flags Magic Mountain,
you need to book a trip to ride Eejanaika ASAP. Eejanaika takes the 4th Dimension
roller coaster concept to the next level. The first drop actually terrified me
with its delayed somersault into the pullout. The full-full inversion was completely bizarre
with its combination of airtime and seat rotation, and even the brake run manages
to be a better ride element than what is offered on most other roller coasters.
I could go on for much longer about this ride, so I'd recommend checking out my full video on why I say
Eejanaika is the world's most insane roller coaster. It is seriously something special and I cannot wait
to go back to Japan so I can ride it some more. Also, Alan Schilke -- if you're somehow watching this, Congratulations. My favorite two roller coasters
are your creations. So that will do it for my list of
Top 25 Roller Coasters. I hope my list didn't trigger you
and that you did not hit the report button. Please feel free to comment below
your thoughts on my list as well as your own personal list
of top roller coasters, if you have one. If you enjoyed the video, be sure to like it
