List of roller Coaster rankings - wikipedia List of roller Coaster rankings Formula Rossa, the fastest roller coaster in the world Roller coasters are amusement rides developed for amusement parks and modern theme parks. During the 16th and 17th centuries, rides consisting of wooden sleds that took riders down large slides made from ice were popular in Russia. The first roller coasters, where the train was attached to a wooden track, first appeared in France in the early 1800s. Although wooden roller coasters are still being produced, steel roller coasters are more common and can be found on every continent except Antarctica. Ranked by height, speed, length, inversions, and steepness, roller coasters are also rated through public opinion polls. Amusement parks often compete to build the tallest, fastest, and longest rides to attract thrill seekers and boost overall park attendance. However, many records do not usually last long. When Magnum XL - 200 opened in 1989, it began a new era of roller coasters and increased competition among parks to set new world records. The Magnum XL -- 200 was the first complete - circuit roller coaster built over 200 feet ( 61 m ). Other notable roller coasters include Formula Rossa which reaches a top speed of 149 miles per hour ( 240 km / h ), Kingda Ka which stands at 456 feet ( 139 m ) tall, and Steel Dragon 2000 which measures 8,133 feet ( 2,479 m ) in length.
