World’s Tallest Swing Ride Opens

Thrill-seeking families, time to head to New England: the world’s tallest swing ride has opened this month at Six Flags New England in Agawam, Mass.

Standing at more than 400 feet high, the New England SkyScreamer stands twice as high as any other ride at the amusement park. The ride holds 24 and spins riders 35 miles per hour.

The ride opens to the public on May 23 for the 2014 summer season. Riders must be 48 inches or taller to ride.
