This is a video clip about Kingda Ka, the record-breaking roller coaster at Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey that originally aired on The History Channels' "Modern Marvels" program. It includes interviews with one of the ride's engineers, info about the technology behind the ride, ride footage, and a look back at the history of roller coasters. (This is The History Channel after all.)
Review:
Because it was produced for television, the clip is very slick. Coaster junkies (and more casual fans) will love the onboard ride footage and other scenes such as a tour of the hydraulic building that powers the coaster.
