About this listen

For millions of thrill-seekers around the world, roller coasters represent the ultimate adrenaline rush. There's nothing quite like the feeling of hurtling down a steep drop at breakneck speed, twisting and turning through corkscrews and loops, and experiencing G-forces that make your stomach drop. Roller coasters are the ultimate thrill ride, and for many of us, they're an essential part of any theme park or amusement park experience.

But for some roller coaster enthusiasts, the thrill of the ride isn't just about the physical sensations. It's also about chasing world records - the tallest, fastest, oldest, longest, and loopiest roller coasters in the world. These are the rides that push the limits of what's possible, testing the engineering prowess of coaster designers and manufacturers, and challenging the bravery of riders who dare to take on these extreme machines.

Record-Breaking Roller Coasters will take you on a tour of more than fifty current and defunct record-breaking roller coasters. From the soaring heights of the tallest coasters to the stomach-churning twists of the coaster with the most head-over-heel inversions, from the fastest, to the oldest, we'll explore what makes these roller coasters so special, and why they continue to draw crowds year after year.
