Attached to the Stratosphere Hotel and Casino is the 1,149-foot Tower, with four thrill rides designed to get your heart pumping. The Big Shot shoots you straight up in the air and down again, at speeds exceeding 45 mph, while the XScream tips riders back and forth over the edge of the Tower more than 800 feet from the ground. SkyJump Las Vegas sends you into a controlled free fall, and Insanity pivots you around the Tower at a 70-degree angle. Those with a fear of heights would do well to avoid the whole thing, but if you can take the height, you're in for quite a ride. Tickets range from $18 to $110.
