Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom is a drop tower operating at the Six Flags Great Adventure amusement park in Jackson Township, New Jersey. At tall, the ride is attached to the existing Kingda Ka roller coaster, and stands as the world's tallest drop tower. ==History== On May 21, 2005, Kingda Ka opened to the public and became the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world at that time overtaking both world records from Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point. Rumors that Six Flags Great Adventure would be adding a drop tower attached to Kingda Ka, similar to Lex Luthor: Drop of Doom at Six Flags Magic Mountain, emerged in February 2012. In August, theme park enthusiast website, Screamscape, mentioned that Rolling Thunder may be removed at the end of the 2013 season. On August 29, 2013, Six Flag's chairman, president, and CEO, Jim Reid-Anderson officially announced ''Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom'' for the 2014 season, which would be attached to Kingda Ka, along with the other new rides to be built at other Six Flags parks.〔 In the press release, it was confirmed that Rolling Thunder will close on September 8, 2013 and be demolished. The new ride is inspired by the park's 2013 addition, Safari Off Road Adventure. The area adjacent to the Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom will be a new habitat for African baboons, which will replace the 2011 addition, ''Safari Discoveries''.〔 On April 1, 2014, the final track piece for the drop tower ride was erected into place by park construction crews. The ride opened to the public on July 4, 2014. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
