Rumors are swirling that Six Flags Great Adventure's Kingda Ka roller coaster is closing, and fans are outpouring love for the world's tallest thrill ride.

The park has not filed at notice with the state that the ride is shutting down, Lisa Ryan, a spokesperson for the state Department of Community Affairs, told NJ Advance Media. Theme parks are not required to submit notice of closure, they would just let the permit lapse if not opening the ride for the next season, she said.

Rising above the pines of Ocean County is a king of the thrill. Out of the 1,300 roller coasters Taylor Bybee has experienced all over the world, he says Kingda Ka offers an adrenaline rush matched by few.

Six Flags Great Adventure hasn’t said anything about Kingda Ka’s future, but coaster enthusiasts claim ride is coming down.
