MALTON, England, July 6 (UPI) -- A new rollercoaster in North Yorkshire, England, has been confirmed as the world's steepest, park officials say.
The "Mumbo Jumbo" coaster at the Flamingo Land Park, near Malton, England, was certified as such by the Guinness World of Records thanks to its 112-degree plunge that puts riders through forces similar to those experienced by jet pilots, The Daily Telegraph reported Monday.
