CraZanity is the tallest and fastest pendulum ride in the world, according to park officials.
“We are appropriately thrilled to deliver another world record ride to our guests this year,” said Park President Neal Thurman. “This ride will deliver a uniquely thrilling experience you won’t find anywhere else.”
The swinging pendulum reaches speeds of 75 mph and climbs 170 feet above the ground, giving riders a bird’s-eye view of Santa Clarita while sitting upright, hanging upside down or while experiencing complete weightlessness.
“Six Flags is known worldwide for the biggest and best thrills bar none and the record-breaking CraZanity ride delivers a crazy, high-adrenaline experience very different from anything else we have in our unparalleled thrill ride arsenal,” Thurman said.
CraZanity is located in the part of the theme park now called The Boardwalk Area, which includes renovated attractions, dining, games and shopping.
“This giant, steel superstructure towering behind me is the newest jewel in our thrill dynasty,” Thurman said before officially opening the ride, “joining an unparalleled collection of extreme rides.”
Six Flags Magic Mountain is open 365 days a year, and is located at 26101 Magic Mountain Parkway in Valencia.

Very nice MM guys, but if I want a bird’s-eye view of Santa Clarita I’m going to the downtown Newhall parking structure. It’s cheaper, it doesn’t spin you, make you upside-down or cause heat failure.
Oh come ON, Denny! Where’s your sense of adventure?
