How tall is the Joker ride?

The Joker Free-Fly Coaster is the name of four spinning roller coasters currently operating at four Six Flags amusement parks in the United States, those being Six Flags Great Adventure, Six Flags Great America, Six Flags Over Texas and Six Flags New England.



The height of "The Joker" depends on which Six Flags park you are visiting, as there are several different models. The most famous version—the 4D Free Spin coaster found at Six Flags Over Texas, Great Adventure, and others—stands exactly 120 feet (37 meters) tall. It features a vertical lift hill that takes riders straight up 12 stories before they experience a 90-degree drop. During the ride, the seats spin independently of the track, so you never know if you'll be facing up or down. At Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, "The Joker" is a hybrid wood-and-steel coaster that stands 100 feet tall and features a 78-degree drop. Both models are considered "Thrill Level 5" and are among the most popular "villain-themed" attractions in the Six Flags portfolio for 2026.

I love rollercoasters and I don't shy away from ones that go upside-down, however the “unpredictable” nature of never knowing when the ride is going to flip was intimidating. As it turns out, my hesitance was unnecessary.
