London, July 9 (ANI): Japan is now officially the world leader in terrifying rides with the introduction of its 14th Guinness world record-breaking ride - the Takabisha roller-coaster.
Unveiled by the Fuji-Q Highland Amusement Park, the new track nestled at the foot of Mount Fuji features a 141ft single vertical fall at 121 degrees, making it the steepest roller-coaster drop in the world, reports the Telegraph. osting three billion yen (23 million pounds) to build, the Takabisha steals the title from Mumbo Jumbo in Yorkshire, which features a 98ft drop at 112 degrees.
The Takabisha, which means "highflying car" runs over 0.6 miles of track and offers panoramic views of Mount Fuji for park-goers to appreciate in the 112 second hair-raising ride.
The attraction will fully open to the public on July 16. (ANI)
