A new thrill ride at the
Stratosphere Tower will dangle passengers 900-feet above the Las Vegas
Strip, according to a Local 6 News report.
The "X-Scream" is designed to give thrill seekers the ultimate
adrenaline rush.
A video animation shows how riders will slide from one end to the
other -- until they literally dangle over the strip.
The ride has already been tested in Utah, but designers say the
experience won't be complete until it's placed at the edge of the
Stratosphere Tower.
To install the ride, helicopters are being used to bring the
giant parts in.
The tentative opening for "X-Scream" the ride is Oct 31 --
Halloween.
