But strap yourself in tight. The brand spanking new ride spans 10 football fields -- or 1,000 yards -- overlooking the Jersey Shore in Jackson.
The risky ride reaches speeds of up to 58 mph, mounts a 130-foot hill and plummets 87-degrees on its initial descent, park officials said.
If that's not enough for Jersey daredevils, the coaster makes three inversions, park officials said: A 180-degree stall, a raven dive and a zero-gravity roll.
Six Flags' thrilling ride was set to open last summer, but the coronavirus pandemic stalled construction, Six Flags' officials said.
“Jersey Devil folklore has been a source of fear and intrigue here in the Pine Barrens for more than 200 years," Six Flags Great Adventure President John Winkler said in a news statement.
The coaster opening in Jackson, Ocean County, will be the world’s tallest, fastest and longest single-rail coaster, according to Winkler.
The so-called "scream machine" carries 12 park-goers in each car.
Each coaster is red and led by a devil's head.
