Great American Scream Machine is a wooden roller coaster located at Six Flags Over Georgia. The 105-foot (32 m)-tall ride reaches a top speed of 57 miles per hour (92 km/h). GASM as it is known to park workers was built by the Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters in 1973 with Marvin M. Black & Sons as the contractor. When it opened it was the tallest longest and fastest roller coaster in the world and riders were given a Red Badge of Courage button for riding the coaster.
