The next attraction, introduced at 1:08 in the video, is Fujiyama, one of the four Guinness Book of World Records-certified, iconic attractions at Fuji-Q Highland.
From the top of the attraction, you can see a panoramic view of Fuji-Q Highland and Mount Fuji.

"Do-Dodonpa," seen at 2:05 in the video, is the worlds fastest roller coaster in the world, accelerating to 180 km/h in just 1.56 seconds!
It also has the largest loop in the world, with a diameter of 39.7 meters, inside of which you can feel the centrifugal force creating a zero-gravity zone, and the light tunnel at the start of the ride allows you to experience a different dimension!

All three attractions featured in the video are available with priority scream tickets (Zekkyo Priority Ticket), that allow you to skip the lines, even when the park is busy!
