Zulu starts flat to the ground, with riders seated in one of the 20 enclosed cars. As the ride begins spinning, it is hydraulically lifted into the air, with the centrifugal forces keeping riders in their seat (there are no seat belts or restraints of any kind on this ride). Zulu was manufactured by Huss Rides of Germany, and was added in 1979. Interestingly enough, Zulu's small queue house was originally used by The Safari an original, if short-lived ride, for its queue house. Guests must be 54" or taller to ride.

Copying of this book or parts for resale is expressly prohibited. We would appreciate being noted as the source, “Six Flags Great America, Chicago” in all materials used based on this publication.

If physics teachers could design the ultimate teaching laboratory, what would it be like? The laboratory would certainly contain devices for illustrating Newton's laws of motion, energy transformations, momentum conservation, and the dynamics of rotation. It would consist of large-scale apparatus so the phenomena could be easily observed and analyzed. Oh, and of course, the dream laboratory would allow the students an opportunity to not only witness the laws of physics in operation, but also feel them! Well, this dream laboratory does exist and is as close as Six Flags Great America! At Six Flags Great America, virtually all the topics included in the study of mechanics can be observed operating on a grand scale. Furthermore, phenomena, such as weightlessness, which can only be talked about in the classroom, may be experienced by anyone with sufficient courage. Students must quantify what they see and feel when doing amusement park physics. Unlike textbook problems, no data is given. Therefore, students must start from scratch. Heights of rides, periods of rotation, and lengths of roller coaster trains must be obtained before plugging data into equations learned in the classroom.
