Insanity-The Ride at the Stratosphere

Insanity-The Ride at the Stratosphere Description

Like the title of the old Cypress Hill rap song, you'd have to be "insane in the membrane" to set foot on Insanity -- The Ride. Or, you just have to have a hunger for fun, heights and a whole lot of spinning! 

Extending 68 feet over the edge of the 1,149-foot Stratosphere tower, Insanity - The Ride  spins passengers at up to three Gs. While sitting in your escape proof seat, you'll be lifted up at a thrilling, 70-degree angle -- all while reaching speeds up to 40 mph. With views of the Las Vegas Strip more than 900 feet below, this ride combines both a physical and psychological rush.

Depending on the time of day (and if it's bright and sunny), you can actually see the shadow of the Stratosphere Tower below. And since the ride is programmable with various ride options, passengers with an insane amount of spontaneity can experience a different kind of ride each time.

Just a precaution -- this ride may not be suitable for those who easily get dizzy and queasy. Be sure you're fully hydrated and not riding on a full stomach.
