What a ride!! The place had 3 rides - first one is the throw you out and pull you in of this 100 story building vanishing the grounds below you. Second one is they places you out of tower and spin you and sametime tilting you horizontally so that you can see the ground below and keep spinning. Third one is the best.. They throw you up the tower and you fall back. This motion happen 3-4 times and is awesome. Must visit is your happen to be in Vegas.
When I saw this ride I just had to do it. Having tried one similar at DisneyLand, placing the same ride 100+ stories up added a huge element of fear. I was hesitant, but did it. It was TERRIFYING - but AWESOME.I did not dare try the other rides, too scary for my blood, but definitely this is highly recommend if you are into rides etc.The views form the top of the stratosphere are incredibly as well, worth going to the top just for those.On subsequent trips to Vegas we didnt bother, but it is certainly a do it at least once sort of thing!
Mr House was delited to find out the Leigon was gone and the NCR was driven out of new vegas!
This ride shoots you straight into the sky and from the perspective on the ride, the only thing you can see is sky and the ground in which it appears you are going to plummet down to. Ive been going on this ride for 20 years and it never gets boring. If you want to ride it and you dont have the strongest stomach, I suggest doing so before you fill your belly with a large meal
I went on all 3 rides and the Big Shot is not very good at all as it just shoots you up once really fast. The Insanity is only good if you get the front seat, otherwise is pretty boring. The X-scream is actually a very good ride that ends up being the only one worth going on at all. Otherwise the view of Vegas is nice.
The big shot is absolutely amazing! Definitely go at night . a must if local. The darkness makes it even more scary absolute Delight not a big fan of the stratosphere but Ill just big shot three stars just because everything else there is not that great
Pretty cheap and great views. The lounge and cafe is recently remodeled with great seats for 360 degree views of Vegas.
This ride was my definite favorite and made us really glad to have bought the unlimited pass. We rode it 3 times and if it werent so freezing cold, we could have gone again and again. It is definitely the least terrifying ride since you cant really fall to your death. After the first time, the thrill is reduced to a manageable level and one can simply enjoy the view. It truly felt like you are the king of the universe for a few moments. I want this feeling back so badly. How can any other ride ever compare to that?
Great view! I enjoyed being at the top of the stratosphere.
Nice view to Las Vegas from the top!
It was so much fun and Id recommend anyone to try it atleast once.
Loved it its not that over price you can hang out there !!
Absolutely amazing! My stomach completely left my body but it was amazing.
A fun experience with almost 1081 feet above Vegas and the view is amazing with this thrill ride which gives u immense rush
I really would have liked it if it drop so fast. I was enjoying the view and down I went. Really over priced for what it was.
Pretty impressive last floor of the Stratosphere hotel and casino. The city view from this spot is amazing, especially during the evening hours, as the city has pretty impressive lighting. Perfect location for memorial photos. There is also a nice restaurant bar with indoor seating and the same beautiful view.
Very fun and thrilling. I thought being plus size I wouldnt be able to ride but i was and glad I did.
The best one out of three. Other ones made me sick.
The best one out of three. Other ones made me sick.
Fearful and thrill ride. Be brave and give a try. Great experience
The Big Shot is a fun ride with a beautiful view... But popping by late at night once it gets dark and seeing Las Vegas all lit up is absolutely incredible. It is a little pricey for such a few seconds of action so I do suggest purchasing the ride pass for a couple bucks more and making the most out of it.
The thrill rides are ok. Worth doing only the Big shot ride (maybe other than the free fall)
This Is the best idea Vegas could it ever came up with a ride on top of the stratosphere it is a rush that you would never ever experience for one for the family and for going out with a friend or a date it is pricey but its worth it
Such a thrilling experience ! Wish the ride went on for longer.... must do in Vegas!
Thrillseekers who enjoy a good view, this one is for you! This super high altitude ride offers anyone an unconventional way to see Las Vegas. Would advise all wanting to try this to buy ride tickets with their admission tickets, or it is much pricier on deciding to buy afterwards when on the viewing deck. Great fun.
Helps to be young and crazy to ride this. I did it in 1994 when it was newer. Didnt realize it goes up fast and down even faster. Most people will experience leaving the seat which seems like it disappears from under you as it pulls you down before it moves upwards again. Cant recall how many times you go up and down but it is scary as the wind is strong up there and despite the beautiful view of the strip lights at night, it will scare the hell out of you. If youre looking for adrenaline and wobbly legs at the end this is for you. Otherwise stick with the indoor bar with 2 drink min, two gin martinis can make you feel the same way but thats much safer. The other cable drop is $150 for adrenaline but Ill spend that money on something else.
Always nice to go view city from the top but has gotten more pricey to do so. But I guess so has everything else.
Really cool ride just short
Was way more intense than I was expecting!
The place is amazing the view worth million dollars and the food at the restaurant wow I dont have word to describe it but is a unique experience thats for sure the environment the costumes service.... Yes its my favorite place in VEGAS
This thing was awesome. We went after my brother got married. What a rush!
Scary ride Amazing experience must do thing in vegas
It was ok the best part was the first launch
Loved it
One Awesome ride, will shoot you up and feeling like zero gravity. Will definitely come back..
If you think you have what it takes to ride this a 1000 feet up. Step up.
Spectacular! Try X-scream! 300 meters of adrenaline!
What a thrill ride! Over a thousand feet in the air and you get shot up even higher! Wow!
The ride are amazing, its a very good experience
Amazing view at the highest point
Best view is at night time, but its lots of fun and very high!!
Traditional picture from LV, Id recommend.
Very fun ride, and gives you a big rush. The only thing that couldve made it better would be if it lasted longer
Very tall building in the heart of Las Vegas I can see it from my house in summerlin
A must do when you are in vegas. What a thrill ride
Incredible view of night time Las Vegas! Thrilling tower of power at 1000 ft above the strip.
Nice view, good attraction
Great visit and rides
NICE. Saw some 10 kiloton nukes go off 65 miles north.
Great great view
Scary! But looks over all of las Vegas
At 112 floor view and excitement are at the top of the world
Fun, but my kids were too young to ride it yet.
If youre a thrill seeker with a love for the wind in your hair and looking towards the sky, then this is for you
Good for visiting
Always a lot of fun and excitement
It has a great view of the city worst $24
Was lots of fun and thrilling!!
Thrill & Action, we loved it!View (in the night time) is awesome!But 15$ is a little too much for the very short ride!
OMG OMG OMG
Just what the doctor ordered for fun
It was a wonderful experience. Awesome view
Awesome ride! If youre afraid, the before is way worse than the actual ride! Try it!
Manager was very nice
For rollercoaster and adrenaline junkies it is not that great of a thrill, but it is still nice to get on the big shot as opposed to the Xscream.
The height adds a dimension to this ride that will rival any amusement anywhere. Outstanding.
My children love this place
Really short, better off buying the multi-ride pass and doing them all for a bit more
Nice observation deck
Ah nope not gonna do that.
Need to reach out to more locals coupons lower the prices exc
Sooooo much fun! Must do in Vegas!
