It is actually not fully vertical. The drop is 87.75 to 87.8 degrees. It has always been dubbed as the world's first vertical drop roller coaster. It is, however, the world's first dive machine coaster, manufactured by B&M. (It is also the fastest ride in the park, although many people believe that the fastest ride is Rita.)
