Jurassic World VelociCoaster is the most intense ride you'll find in Florida as you blast around the track at speeds of 70mph.

You'll find yourself racing through "36,000 square feet of elaborate rockwork, a giant waterfall and lush jungle vegetation" all within a dinosaur paddock. There's "4,700 feet of pulse-pounding track" with 100 feet of that dedicated to one "inverted stall".

You'll be propelled at 50mph in just 3 seconds to head up to the "top hat" all on a roller coaster that will not break throughout the entire experience.

This isn't called the Apex Predator of Coasters for no reason!
