Dragon Mountain is a steel roller coaster located at Marineland near Niagara Falls, Ontario in Canada[1] Built in 1983 by Arrow Dynamics, it was the tallest roller coaster in the world before the opening of Magnum XL-200 at Cedar Point.[2] It was also the last time that a coaster designated "tallest in the world" has had inversions (in this case, four). It covers 30 acres (12 hectares) of land.
