Happy 10th Birthday Kingda Ka!
« on: May 22, 2015, 08:28:00 AM »
Yesterday marked ten years(!) since Kingda Ka opened to the public on May 21st, 2005. I can't believe it's been ten years already, but I remember being there. And I've met a great community of enthusiasts since then.

In honor of that, here's a link to the first ever test launches that we were able to capture on video!

Even crazier is that it still holds the tallest coaster record even 10 years later. I wonder if thats also a record for longest holder of that record.

Peep the concept, you've got progress, you've got congress
We protest in hopes they confess, just proceed on your conquest
I ain't got no gavel, I ain't finna fight nobody battle
I just wanna be free, I ain't finna be nobody's chattel
