| The Dueling Dragons are two of the most unique roller coasters in the world. Billed as the worlds ony near-miss roller coasters, they offer some of the most amazing experiences ever on a roller coaster. They are called near-miss coasters because over the duration of the ride, they nearly miss hitting one another three times. The first of these near misses is where the Fire Dragon goes over the top of the Ice Dragon, which is doing a barrel roll. The riders feet come within 3 feet of hitting each other. The second near-miss experience is what made this roller coaster famous. The two coasters are sent hurtling directly at each other, only to loop away at the last second. The riders come withing two feet of hitting one another in the process. The final of the near-misses are interlocking corckscrews, in which the track of the two coasters are twisted together. The whole experience is made possible by the fact that it is an inverted coaster(hanging down from the track), which allows you to see below you. If the ride weren't amazing enough already, it also claims the title for worlds longest cue line, which is over a mile long! But thats not a bad thing, as it has the most amazing and extravagant theming ever created. Which shouldn't be a surprise, since the whole theming was directly supervised by Steven Spielberg! This is by far one of the greatest roller coasters ever created. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
