Its the same thing happened with me when I did a roller coaster ride for the first time. But for overcome from the fear I did it 3 times and man it was awesome.
They should have shoulder straps and seat belts as secondary safety precaution in case lap bar unexpectedly gives way. If they're not doing this, it's insanely unsafe.

The thing that got me when I rode this ride is that I didn't know it tilted forward. That got my heart pumping. I probably won't ride it again unless one of the grandkids wants to. You cannot let your kids, grandkids etc ride on a thrill ride with out you also doing it.
@Rich I'm in awe of your bravery! I honestly don't think I could go on this ride for all the money in the world. The last couple of times I've been on rollercoasters I've come off the ride with a thumping headache, so I think my days of riding the extreme ones are over. I honestly think I would put my health at risk if I went on this ride 😱😱
I did this ride when I was in Vegas last month. I’m 55 and my husband is 61. It was awesome! I just decided that even if I was scared, I was still going to do it. We are so glad we did it.
Oh hell no way Jose! I'm having anxiety just watching that ride and I'm sitting here in my living room watching it on my cell phone. The only thing I keep picturing in my mind is the episode on CSI where the roller coaster ran off the track. If I went on that ride I think I would have to change my clothes seriously.
Same here. My anxiety is ramping up just knowing that my kids are chomping at the bit to go on this ride 😫 I only have a few more years before they're too old for me to say, "no".
It scares the crap out of me, but this ride was one of my favorites to ride with my Mom Valerie when we went years ago...we went on it 3 times in a row and got the t-shirts 👕 for it as well as the keyrings with our picture from the ride.
Wow these people are brave af!!! When we got to the top, the elevator doors open and my husband and our 2 kids RUN to look out the window, I hit the floor and had to crawl over, and even then I REFUSED to get too close to the glass. So to get on the OUTSIDE of the same building--not happening with me 😲
@Lynette I was just the same as you when we visited the TV tower in Dusseldorf. It's not even as high as this one, but I could barely bring myself to look out of the windows as I was shaking so much. I don't think I have a very good head for heights lol.
Oh, that looks like fun... Not! I used to be a roller-coaster nut but as I grew older, I found I was thinking more about stuff like, 'I hope these bolts are well maintained, I hope this steel isn't fatigued..'
My legs are literally becoming weak watching this and my vertigo is beginning to act up, feeling dizzy. They are nuts!!! Who in the world came up with this idea?!?!??!?
If you don't mind a question from a stranger...Do you find your vertigo progressing through the years? Mine seems to be getting worse as I get older. The last time I had to drive over a bridge (a large one, going into Chicago) my palms started sweating and I had that horrible feeling of panic. This is the same bridge I have driven over many times in the past, and never had this problem. Just wondering if this is the case for anyone else? Thanks.
I rode this years ago with some friends. We did it at night. I think it was way scarier! Idk how they talked me into riding it but I'm glad I did. It was scary but really a thrill ride!!!
I have been on lots of crazy and scary rides at many amusement parks and I just don’t get scared. This one frightened the hell out of me. It’s 1000 feet straight down. Never will do this again!
There was a ride at Kings Island near Cincinnati, I think it was called the Rotor. It would spin so fast the G-force would pin you to the wall. It was almost always closed to clean up someone's vomit. To answer your statement, it gets on everyone!
At this point I’m convinced some rides are built just to count how many people gone die LMAOOO bc ain’t no fuckin way that even looks secure. The craziest rides I’ve seen lately got some bullshit security it’s unbelievable
That is crazy. That is playing with death. There have been accidents involving smaller machines that try to make fun of death, I would not get on that machine even if they pay me because death always wins. We need to respect that which we cannot control and death is one of them.
Back in 2007 I was staying at the Strat. Heard of this ride malfunctioning with three teenage girls stuck on it as it was out over building side. They flew in from LA the ride developer who somehow released the choke, tossed a rope out to them & pulled the ride back in. The girls were offered a years worth of free rides as their compensation. Needless to say, they all declined
in 2005 two girls were stranded on this ride because it stopped spinning due to high winds. I am not sure of the time they were dangling over the edge but I am pretty sure it was over an hour.
It is 1,100 ft above the parking lot, not much if you look down, but turn your head 90 degrees sideways and it’s a totally different effect, guarantied to make your stomach quizzy , I was told by the opera that if you do it long enough you’ll cover cars below with your dinner
I’ve rode this ride before it’s flat scary it swings you way out over the side of that building thinking about what could fail on that is scary. There’s one main pin that holds the thing together on a small turntable that spins it along with that building taking about 30 years to finish in sections, different types of concrete used over the years is definitely a thought going to your mind when setting literally hanging in the sky
