Red face Las Vegas- Insanity Ride

So I saw this in Stuff today... I LOVE amusement rides... and I really want to go to Vegas (never been)

http://www.insanityride.com/

Check out the video.

That's insane. 900 feet above the strip. I would so shit myself but it would be so worth it!

Oh hell yeah! I so wanna do that ride! I have done the Big Shot at the Strat.
I think my stomach is still up at the top of the ride

I would love to try the Insanity (I am a coaster fanatic)

I go to Vegas fairly regularly...It's pretty new, less than a year. But HELL-A-NO!!! NO WAY I'M GETTING ON THAT THING!!!!!!!!!!!!


ETA: OK, got the ride wrong...I THOUGHT that was the name of X-Scream....THAT thing is NUTSO! But, THIS...Um, I, uh, well, I don't know.....

BTW, I have a feeling there will be a weight limit....Just a guess...

We're planning on going to Vegas when it's opening, so I signed up for the contest! LOL. Maybe we will have to try it.

Some sane peeps on GC must remember, there are a few of us saner people. Jill is not sane what so ever. Cant remember when it was built, but it isnt that new.

I thought they closed it down last year.

A high curb in front of my store is all the higher I want to get off of the damn ground!

The web site says that its due to open early 2005.

-Projected Public Opening: Early 2005
X-Scream is the older thrill ride that came out before this one.

living in vegas makes it ALOT easier to go on those rides ive been on the X-Scream a few times - the one that hangs over the side... its pretty crazy the first time - if you ever come out here you'd have to do at least some of the rides - theyre fun. and im like a rides fanatic ... sooo

I looooove roller coasters, but DH had to go on the X-Scream by himself. If he wants to go on this ride, he will be going solo also!
