Experience the Big Shot and X-Scream thrill rides both located at the top of the STRAT Tower on the north end of the Las Vegas Strip. Strap into the Big Shot, where you’ll be shot 160 feet in the air at 45 miles per hour in a matter of seconds – all while overlooking the majestic Las Vegas Valley. Big Shot catapults 16 riders from the 921-foot-high platform up the tower’s mast to a height of 1,081 feet, and then down again. The X-Scream, a roller coaster, teeter totters you over the edge of the Tower from 866 feet high, propelling riders head first 27 feet over the edge of the tower. After being shot over the edge, passengers are dangled weightlessly above the Las Vegas Strip before being pulled back and propelled again.
