How tall is steel vengeance?

Steel Vengeance opened as an unmatched world-record breaker with some serious stats: 205 feet tall, 74 miles per hour, longest hybrid coaster in the world at 5,740 feet and almost 30 seconds of airtime - the most airtime on ANY roller coaster in the world - along with twists, turns and close calls during the 2 minute, ...



Steel Vengeance, located at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, stands as one of the world's most formidable "hyper-hybrid" roller coasters with a peak height of 205 feet. When it debuted in 2018, it shattered multiple world records, featuring a massive 90-degree drop that plunges riders down 200 feet at speeds reaching 74 miles per hour. Because it was constructed by Rocky Mountain Construction (RMC) using the structure of the former wooden Mean Streak coaster but with a "I-Box" steel track, it offers a uniquely smooth experience despite its wood-inspired silhouette. In 2026, it remains a global fan favorite, largely due to its unprecedented amount of airtime—totaling nearly 30 seconds—which is more than any other roller coaster currently in existence.

Steel Vengeance at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, is 205 feet (62.5 meters) tall.
