      @@highflyer011 I believe that ride should be torn down. Looking at pictures of the young man who died, seated, ready to go, comparing his restraint to others on the ride..
      This was obviously negligence, by both the ride manufacturer and the park. Restraint on the ride is horribly designed. It should have either shoulder restraints which cover the whole torso and lock between the rider's legs, or it should've had a backup seat belt at the waist area.
      The operators of the ride claim the light was on, which meant the mechanism was locked and presumably secure. Looking at the photos, anyone can tell that young man wasn't secure.

      Never, ever should have gotten on it in the first place.

    I've been to the Stratosphere in Vegas and I can confirm that those three rides are some of most terrifying rides I've ever ridden. X-Scream and Insanity are the two most extreme since they dangle you over the edge about 900 feet from your certain death if something were to go a bit wrong. What makes Insanity worse is that it stops spinning and dangles you at an angle facing slightly face down well over the edge while they load and unload the seats across from you. This torture, which only takes a few minutes, seemingly takes hours while your heart races, your arms turn numb and your sweat drips down from your forehead stinging your eyes because you're too scared to let go of your grip to wipe your brow. ...and then the ride starts to wobble as riders are unloaded and reloaded making it feel like the ride is going to come unhinged and send you down nearly 1000 feet below on your last drop ride of your life.
    ..Having said that, I ended up loving the rides and rode them all multiple times. A must add-on to your bucket list. ..and make sure to ride X-Scream in the very front!

  • @avery6248
    @avery6248 Рік тому +305

    As someone who’s been to the strat and is also an adrenaline junkie, here’s what I’ll say:
    The drop at the strat is fun, but way to short. Go on it once to say you went on it, but there are definitely better rides out there.
    Insanity is super fun, and surprisingly quite peaceful. I went on it with my bff 3 times, and we both loved it. You get a really nice breeze on that one.
    X-Scream is very fun, but I’d suggest getting a front seat. I went on it twice - the first time I was in the front, and it was a great experience. I was in the second row on the second time I did it and it was still cool, but definitely a different experience.
    But to add two that aren’t on this list, I would add the Hyperion in Energylandia (Poland) and the Slingshot in Coney Island (NY). They might not be in the top 10, but definelty in the top 20 - both are super thrilling and fun.

    I've always considered bungee rides to be the most intense, such as the Slingshot, or bungee jumping by your ankles. For me, the reason is because the g-forces and speeds are so intense compared to coasters. That, and either the sky or the ground is rushing towards you. Even skydiving was peaceful and serene compared to standing on a platform and jumping off with a bungee cord on my ankles.

    • @TCFan25

    I just did all the rides at the Strat last month (November 2022). LOVED the big shot for the free-fall experience and how the height messes with your head. Rode it several times. I only rode Insanity once because it spins so fast that I didn't find it enjoyable. I couldn't focus on anything and it triggered some vertigo. The end is really the only part I found somewhat scary when you're left hanging out after it stops spinning to slowly swing you back it. I think it would be a lot scarier and more enjoyable if it rotated slowly. X-Scream was by far my favorite. I sat in the front (arms in the air) and rode it six times. (hardly anyone else was up there that night) It really does mess with your head. You KNOW you aren't going to fall, but the way it's done, you have a hard time overriding that instinct.

    • @KremitDeFrog
      @KremitDeFrog 11 місяців тому +3

      surprisingly enough, the high roller can also render that same feeling X-Scream gave you.. the certainty that you can trust it, but the inability to yield to that fact.. one spot on that track where you come up an incline with some decent speed and hit a hard, flat (non-banked) right turn just as you finish the incline.. so the cart wants to keep going straight with it's momentum but the track makes it do a hard right (emphasis on hard as there is a decent physical jolt with the transfer of momentum to the rails).. IDK, maybe it's just me, but I couldn't help think that it's good for 9,999 times.. it's that 10,000th one I don't want to bee on.. I mean OceanGate made it down to the Titanic half a dozen times before it was no longer safe enough..

    Regarding number 3: You said that it's actually more freaky on the side where you're facing the sky rather than the one facing down toward the canyon. I can confirm this is a legit thing. I used to climb radio towers for a living and a few years ago I just quit climbing cellphone towers. The highest tower I climbed was 1,000 feet. On every tower though, getting to the top, I would look up and the butterflies would hit. Looking down never did anything for me. I think it's because when looking down, I can see the ground. It may be far away, but it's clearly there and measurable. Looking up, I see how close I am to the clouds or the cloudless sky, often I was above the lowest layer of cloud. That somehow is way more freaky... 🗼🗼🗼

The first time I went to the Strat in 2005 I was brave enough to ride Insanity and the Big Shot but too scared to ride the X-Scream! It's definitely freaky. I think it's more intimidating to watch than to ride, but that's me.

    I was on The Big Shot at The Strat a long time ago and loved it despite my increasing fear of heights. I also went on the rooftop rollercoaster (which is, apparently, gone). I think they were just installing (or had just installed) that appalling Insanity ride as I do remember refusing to go on it.
    Regarding the rollercoaster, I do remember commenting that I hoped the designer/engineer on the thing got good grades. LOL
    Lastly, about The Big Shot, one of the things that makes it so scary is that Las Vegas is on a flat plain with hills in the far distance, so you are just sitting in a chair with your feet dangling at about 900 ft. and then you get shot up to about 1,060 ft in less than a few seconds, dropped and then sent back up before dropping to the end of the ride. Such a great ride and one of my favourites all-time.

After the initial drop, which is fun, it's just a gorgeous swing through a canyon.
