Star Jet, Steel roller coaster at Casino Pier, Seaside Heights, United States
The Star Jet roller coaster extended 52 feet high over Casino Pier, featuring three cars with two seats arranged in a single row for six total riders.
Hurricane Sandy struck on October 29, 2012, causing the Casino Pier section to collapse and sending the Star Jet roller coaster structure into the Atlantic Ocean.
The Star Jet roller coaster represented a continuation of Casino Pier's tradition of maintaining substantial thrill rides following the previous Jet Star installation.
The coaster operated from 2002 until 2012, utilizing a chain lift hill mechanism to propel riders through its standard steel track configuration.
In January 2013, Christopher Angelo navigated a canoe to the partially submerged coaster remains and mounted an American flag at its peak.
