The world's tallest and fastest rollercoaster is to be unveiled this year when Cedar Point theme park in Ohio, USA opens for the summer season in May.
The $25m, 420ft tall, 120mph Top Thrill Dragster is currently under construction and will be the first rollercoaster to break the 400ft tall threshold.
The ride, which covers eight acres with 2,800ft of track, has been designed by Cedar Point and Swiss-based rollercoaster manufacturer, Intamin and has a capacity of 1,500 people per hour in its six 16-passenger trains.
Top Thrill Dragster is the ninth record -breaking ride introduced by Cedar Point since 1989, including breaking the 200ft and subsequently the 300ft height barrier. Details: www.cedarpoint.com
