Riding High

Sat, Dec 26, 2009

The skyscraper Stratosphere in Las Vegas plans a new ride that should attract thrill-seekers from around the world.

Riding High

Las Vegas's Stratosphere casino already boasts three thrill rides at the top of the sky-high tower, but the property plans to add another called Sky Jump.


The Sky Jump attraction involves bungee jumping with a wire, and would cost approximately $3.6 million of the Stratosphere's $22 million budget in 2010 to build. But first, the company needs permission from the city's building and safety department, after which the property will announce when the Sky Jump will be open for business.


Stratosphere's Big Shot, X-Scream and Insanity, the Ride are popular attractions for the casino, which has found that thrill-seekers love jumping, falling and riding atop the property's observation deck.
