BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Soaring 13 stories high and hurtling 58 mph through a series of hair-raising dives and turns, the new Wonder Woman Flight of Courage roller coaster is expected to lasso droves of thrill seekers when it opens next month at Six Flags Magic Mountain.

The coaster — touted as the tallest and longest single-rail coaster in the world — sends four trains of 12 passengers each zooming along 3,300 feet of track. Expect screams with a sheer 87-degree first drop and three spots where riders will be turned upside down, including a 180-degree stall.
