The Original Scream Machine: America's Love Affair with Rollercoasters 
 
by Diana Bocco September 12, 2005

Cedar Point Amusement Park

Self-dubbed "the roller coaster capital of the world," Cedar Points boasts an impressive 16 coasters and 68 thrill rides, the most of any amusement park on the planet. The 364-acre theme park and resort complex is located in Sandusky, Ohio, and it's the second oldest park in North America (Lake Compounce Park in Connecticut comes first). Up until the opening of Kangda Ka, Cedar Point also had the record for the tallest and fastest rollercoaster on Earth. Top Thrill Dragster was the world's first "strata-coaster" (over 400 feet) and the only one until Ka.

The park attracts over 19 million riders from all over the world every year.
