The Boss is a wooden roller coaster at Six Flags St. Louis in Eureka, Missouri. It features four large drops over 100 feet and a 570 degree helix.[1][2] The Boss is a very rough, physically demanding ride and people with back and heart problems should reconsider before riding it.[citation needed]
It was opened in 2000 and entered many roller coaster top ten lists. It is acclaimed for its "terrain twister" style, dipping up and down with the terrain beneath it.[citation needed]
