Background from Wikipedia

Firebird is a defunct floorless roller coaster located at Six Flags America in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. Originally designed as a stand-up roller coaster by Swiss manufacturer Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M), the ride first opened as Iron Wolf in 1990 at Six Flags Great America. It debuted as the tallest and fastest stand-up coaster in the world, featuring a height of 100 feet (30 m) and a maximum speed of 55 mph (89 km/h). Iron Wolf also held the distinction as being the first coaster from B&M, a company that later became one of the industry's leading coaster manufacturers. The stand-up coaster was later relocated to Six Flags America, where it reopened as Apocalypse in 2012.
