Wild Thing is a steel hypercoaster located at Valleyfair amusement park in Shakopee, Minnesota. Opened in 1996, it was built by the renowned coaster manufacturer D. H. Morgan Manufacturing. Wild Thing stands out for its impressive height of 207 feet, and its thrilling 200-foot drop provides an exhilarating experience right from the start. The coaster reaches speeds of up to 74 mph as it navigates a series of airtime-filled hills, sweeping curves, and a dark tunnel.
