Top 25 Roller Coasters In The World 2024 

This may be the most unique coaster list I've ever seen on RU-vid

Ride to Happiness at 19 is … surprisingly low. My favourite coaster so far. Tarim by night is epic.

As someone who's list of coasters are primarily from the USA, it's great to see such a well rounded list of coasters from around the globe. Great job with the video and happy travels!

Love seeing Helix ranked so highly. I rode it fir thr first time last year and it was flipping sick

Thanks for the awesome video! I'm always excited to see one of your projects show up on my queue. Intimidator 305 has been my second favorite coaster for years. I always say it's the king of coasters. Your taste lines up with mine so closely that I'm desperate to get out of the states and try your other favorites.

Love this list with all the variety

Nice list. Ending the video with the second best hybrid at Cedar Point lol

Love your content David keep up the great work.

Oh my god this list is amazing! Really different from my own but loved hearing your thoughts and perspectives! Although I'm super jealous about Hakugai. I know for a fact it would be my number one too.

AMAZING LIST!!! 🤩 I'm so happy Hakugei got some recognition! I'm surprised that Iron Gwazi and Steve aren't on the list! But I mean they aren't on mine either, so...

This list extremely questionable but I love that you put steel dragon in there. It is probably the most underrated coaster I’ve ridden, as people write it off as the worst Giga and since it is made by Morgan and in Japan, but it is such a fun, forceful and smooth experience that holds up well to the Intamin and B&M gigas. Great to see someone who appreciates it as much as I do

So happy to see Hyperion ranked so well!

Ah, a fellow Steel Dragon appreciator. Truly a man of refined taste.

I really like your top!!

This may depend on body sizes, but I've always found intamin air superior to RMC air. The airtime on intamins provide more vigorous and dynamic air that grows on you every ride. On RMCs, I feel like i'm being tossed up in one static position. The air is not full of energy and torsion, nor combined with laterals, but is still fantastic.

This list is wild

Nice list! Surprised you didn't include a coaster from Six Flags Mexico or did it just drop out of your list completely? The only coaster I really did a double take on was the Beast. Everything else makes complete sense to me to be included in the Top 25 list especially when you are trying to get different type of coasters to be included. Glad to see the love for Toutatis. I was a big fan of it when I rode it this past summer. Also I don't have Taron quite as high as you do put it is in my Top 15. Very underrated coaster. Again nice list!

This may just be one of the most well-travelled coaster lists I’ve ever seen. So cool to see how coasters across the world line up with one another.

GREAT VIDEO! I love your descriptions of each, and I love the originality of the picks and their order. There’s a lot here that feels congruent to my tastes, such as the love for Taron and Shambhala, coasters that my younger compatriots tend to denigrate or ignore, respectively. I’m also pleased to see the woodies that made your list (though I take it you’re not a big fan of Voyage - can’t remember if I’ve asked you about that before?). Of course, you include some coasters that would not come close to my top 25, but there’s enough here for me to feel a real affinity - and to make me think all the more that I must get on Hakugei!

Hey David! Love the video! Let me know if you plan to get back to CP soon, I'm a local and would love to do a Dual David rollercoaster ride on some coasters! Great list ❤

Taron at night in Wintertraum is one epic adrenaline rush. ❤️

Very cool list. For me, Zadra is my clear number one and i rank Taron a lot lower than you have

Interesting take, first one I have seen without SteeVe on it.

Great list! Have you got on Shivering Timbers at Michigans Adventure?

Taron ❤️‍🔥 i will have my first night ride next Tuesday

Nice vid! Me and some of my friends are planning on going to Energylandia next year and I'm curious to know what you think about Zadra? Seeing as it's the big selling point of the park it's what I've been looking forward to the most, but now you've got me curious about Hyperion!

I'm glad that there are more people who celebrate Steel Dragon 2000 like this. For me, it's one of the most underrated hypercoasters. The thing is a real airtime monster and looks simply gigantic with all the steel that was installed there for earthquake safety. And then there's Hakugei in Nagashima Spa Land, the best RMC I've ridden so far. The layout in blue and white looks fantastic, especially when you can admire it from the Ferris wheel. Hyperion and Zadra at Energylandia in Poland are also the best roller coasters in Europe for me, although Taron at Phantasialand is also great. Your channel is great and I always look forward to new videos from you.

Damn what a list, and like how its clearly personal to you. Have you done Voyage? its an incredible coaster to not make top 25 if so. Hakugei looks superb, like Wildfire with abit of iGwazi.

Excellent list my friend I am wondering if you have rode Superman at 6 flags New England and if so where would you rank it?

Nice diverse list of coasters. Surprised to see Taron so high compared to other lists around. Still a number one ride for me, with the trim brake being the only downside of the ride. How would you rank the other highlight of the park f.l.y. though?

A great, very unbiased list of coasters. I’ve only ridden 11 of your top 25 (i305 closed when I went there 🤬) but here’s how I’d rank the ones you mentioned: 1. Hyperion 2. Zadra 3. Trth 4. Helix 5. Shambhala 6. Taron 7. Fury 325 8. El toro 9. Black mamba 10. Skyrush 11. Magnum xl200 Almost feels like a blessing in disguise that I’ve got so many awesome coasters to go and visit. Keep up the great work and hopefully cross paths at some point this year!

Have you ridden Eejeniaka? Also I agree with your opinion on i305, its my number 1, even after riding Steel Vengeance.

Really awesome list, Iron Gwazi is my personal number 1, but Hakugei is definitely in my top 5 'want to ride' nd I've been looking for an excuse to get back to Japan 😉 Biggest surprise for me is Hyoerion! The airtime on that first hill is unlike anything else, but I just wish it was a bit longer overall. The overbanks did little for me as well

Wow controversial indeed.. how tastes could differ. Taron isn't even in my top 5 and I haven't even ridden half of Europe.. Same with Kondaa. Extreeemely overrated imo. I love Hyperion so up high since it is my current number 2 as well over the likes of Rth and Untamed (That ones close tho). But my number 1.. Zadra is up easy 30% over Hyperion. It's just insane how clear Zadra is. I dont know.. I just love the pacing, sense of speed, crazy airtime, zero g roll, outer bank turn, double down.. I dont see anything quite beating it. It for me is coaster perfection.

As a girl on sleepovers we make out n give each other lap dances and def see how has the biggest gyat

Do you really think Nemesis is better than Mamba, Oziris, and Icon?

No Steel Vengeance??

You made clear at the beginning that your list was formed with an eye to variety and the best in various categories, etc. But I still think a lot of enthusiasts will be stunned by the complete absence of a certain coaster in Ohio! 😂. I’m fine with it myself.

I love Hakugei! Really stoked to see Steel Dragon so high because I rated that very highly as well! I love Japan and Nagashima Spa Land. Going back to Tokyo in March but sadly wont be able to go back there. Hoping to go back to Fuji Q and maybe Disney Sea though!
