Wtf new “ride” at the Stratosphere
Holy crap I just woke up and was watching local news, and there’s a new “ride” at the Stratosphere now, where you just jump off a shitty looking ledge at the top of the tower.
When the local reporter was doing it, I thought it was going to be a bungie jump, but it’s actually a controlled freefall (at about 40mph) and takes about 35 seconds before you get to the bottom about 800 feet below.
There’s a video at the Stratosphere’s website. The ride costs $115 bucks. I’m not sure if it’s worth it, but then again you’re more likely to wet your pants doing this than by buying five songs at Sapphire. Just saying.
