Notes

Moonsault Scramble exerted a maximum g-force of 6.5 g on its riders. It operated from 1983 to 2000. Many other defunct roller coasters would appear on this list, however their maximum g-force was never measured or calculated.

Tower of Terror exerted a maximum g-force of 6.3 g on its riders before being refurbished in 2006 - 2007. According to the project manager of the 2006 - 2007 refurbishment, the ride now has "drastically lower levels, now reaching close to 4G in the tunnel".
