We went to LV, Nevada last week and my hubby talked me into taking this ride that hangs off the top of the Stratosphere. I explained that I didn’t want to, but I would since I promised last year when we went and we missed our chance. I told him repeatedly that I hated him before and during the ride. I kept my eyes closed most of the time we were riding. The view was absolutely terrifying. It wasn’t until we were back in the casino on the ground floor that I admitted I still love him. :)
I believe I’m now suffering from PTSD. I can still see the wretched view, and thinking about it causes my palms to sweat and my heart to race.
I told my kids about it, they can’t wait to go… :/ 3 years ago
Heading to Vegas this spring so why not give it a try. Here is the discription:
At over 100 stories above the ground, the Stratosphere boasts the world’s three highest thrill rides; the Big Shot, X Scream and Insanity the Ride.
Insanity-The Ride consists of an arm that extends out 64 feet over the edge of the Tower and will spin passengers at up to three ‘G’s.’ As the ride spins faster and faster, the riders are propelled up to an angle of 70 degrees. Riders will experience the thrill of being flung over the edge of the Tower and literally facing downward at the City of Las Vegas below. The ride is programmable with various ride options. An unobstructed view of historic downtown Las Vegas rewards those riders brave enough to experience three ‘G’s’ at a height of more than 900 feet. 6 years ago
