8. It's The Fastest Mountain In Magic Kingdom

At both Disneyland and Walt Disney World the drop down the hill is a whopping 50 feet at a 45 degree angle.

This 5 story drop means that your boat will reach speeds of up to 40 mph on the way down the Chick-A-Pin Hill. This makes it the fastest of the three mountains. Big Thunder Mountain only gets up to 36 mph and Space Mountain is actually pretty slow at 28 mph.

Tokyo Disneyland's version of the ride has an even steeper drop at 60 feet!
