The Steel Dragon 2000 (often referred to as the "200" in shorthand), located at Nagashima Spa Land in Japan, stands at a peak height of 97 meters (318.3 feet). When it opened in the year 2000, it set the world record for the tallest and longest complete-circuit roller coaster. While its height record has since been surpassed by "Giga" and "Strata" coasters like Fury 325 and Kingda Ka, it remains a massive presence in the coaster world. The ride features a drop of 93.5 meters (307 feet) and reaches top speeds of approximately 153 km/h (95 mph). In 2026, it is still celebrated for its extreme length (over 8,000 feet of track), making it the longest roller coaster in the world—a record it has held for over a quarter-century since its debut during the Year of the Dragon.
