Thrill seekers are about to experience a brand new, modern version of the Thunderbolt—Coney Island’s famous wooden roller coaster that dished out thrills and chills for over 50 years, from 1925 to the early 1980’s—due to open at Coney Island’s Luna Park amusement area this Memorial Day. The new coaster will be all steel, will reach speeds of 55 miles per hour, and rise 125 feet above the ground. The two-minute ride features a 90-degree vertical drop, a 100-ft loop, a zero-gravity roll, and more. So, brace yourselves, hold on to your hats, and prepare for summer fun! lunaparknyc.com
