Extending 64 feet over the north edge of the tower, the inverted centrifuge spins passengers up to three G's and as the speed increases, riders are pulled out in "escape-proof" seats to an angle of 70 degrees, with nothing to look at but the Las Vegas Strip more than 900 feet below. This is, Insanity-The Ride. The Ride is nestled atop The Stratosphere Tower, the tallest building west of the Mississippi at 1,149 feet. The Ride is its diversity. T is completely programmable by the operator with more than 100 ride variations. The Ride will leave you breathless, and full of adrenaline.
