Brave enough for this tummy turner? You've got to have a stomach of steel to agree to take on the new Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger rollercoaster found at Six Flags Fiesta in Texas. Plus it's a bit of a commute to get there.
With drops of 90 degrees and over you will feel like you're free-falling (ie: plummeting to your death) while strapped in. It sounds amazing.
Carrying 21 passengers, the three-train ride lifts daredevils to 150ft in the air and drops them on a 95 degree angle at 60mph.
We don't even drive that fast.

There's a '270 degree zero-g roll and a 75ft near-vertical drop along the way, as it speeds across 2,501ft of track'.
The website states: "Dr. Diabolical proclaims to have an elixir from the fountain of youth that is capable of preserving life.
"She lures unsuspecting visitors to partake, but little do they know that she is using them to fulfil her evil plan to frighten the world with her menacing creatures.

Celebrating the park's 30th anniversary, it has other spew-inducing rides including the Daredevil Dive Flying Machines which 'makes you feel like a stunt pilot'.
Although we'll have to wait for the USA to open its borders post pandemic before we can get our ride on when it opens next year.
Pass the sick bag.
