When it was built in 1996, Fujiyama broke several records as the tallest roller coaster in the world, the fastest, and having the highest drop.

With a summit height of 259 feet and speeds of 81 mph, Fujiyama is a thrilling ride. Named after the famous Japanese Mount Fuji, the Fujiyama roller coaster has a steep slope just like its namesake, and will send riders plummeting down 230 feet at its first drop.

The ride then consists of an exhilarating series of twists and turns, with bunny hills and headchopper moments that will thrill its riders.
