Summer isn’t over and there is fun to be had after Labor Day even at the theme parks. If you’re looking for the best end-of-summer thrills, there are a few new and classic roller coaster rides that are definitely worth investigating.

In 2012, Canada’s Wonderland in Vaughan, Ontario  opened up the Leviathan, a $28 million coaster that is now one of the biggest and tallest steel gigacoasters out there. Not only does it reach a record-breaking height of 306 feet, it also tops 92 mph and has an 80-degree drop.

It’s not just about extreme heights or drops or speeds. It’s also about special experiences, memorable rides and safety records. Watch Peter’s CBS This Morning report to see the best coasters of 2012 season.
