Six Flags NJ King Cobra

By multivu

Six Flags Great Adventure, America’s largest regional theme park, today announced the addition of King Cobra, an intense and visually-stunning, racing tube slide, opening at Six Flags Hurricane Harbor in Summer 2012.

King Cobra promises one of the most extreme riding experiences in the industry while also delivering great spectator appeal. Complete with bold orange, black and yellow scales to resemble a massive cobra on both the interior and exterior, this slide tower will be the first of its kind anywhere in the United States. King Cobra’s unique configuration enables two tubes to race through a circular path with twists, turns and surprises through enclosed and open sections of the slide at speeds up to 32 miles per hour. The ride’s finale features a sudden, 25-foot plunge at a 50-degree angle with riders racing until the heart-pounding finish as they appear to be swallowed by the massive mouth of the cobra.

Her first big hit came in 1985 with the release of "hold me", a duet she did with Teddy Pendergrass.

Over the course of her lifetime, Houston won over 400 awards including 6 Grammies, 2 Emmys, and 30 Billboard Music awards. Guinness Book of World Records lists her as the most awarded female artist of all times.

Her powerful and majestic voice had led to nearly 175 million albums being sold. She has inspired countless young artists and her voice will continue to inspire future generations.

Houston's diverse talent was also evident in Hollywood with her acting roles in movies like "The Bodyguard" and "Waiting to Exhale".
