The train will enter a tunnel that appears will be carved into the base of the mountain, then another launch will rev the cars up to their top speed, a G-force-manic 156 mph. They will then drop over the edge and plummet at a 90-degree angle toward the valley while accelerating to about 100 mph. One of three magnetic launches will catapult the ride’s train up a 655-foot-tall cliff. Based on a video rendering of the planned ride, it will start by climbing an enormous lift hill and hitting a potent 94 mph for its first drop.

It’s not scheduled to open until 2023, but when Falcon’s Flight arrives at Six Flags Qiddiya in Saudi Arabia, it will not just break, but it will purportedly destroy existing height, speed and track-length records. Through the years, designers have responded to the challenge by creating coasters that surpass previously unimaginable thresholds.
