That Roller Coaster Ride!


Did anyone •bleep• their pants during that roller coaster scene?
Does anyone know if this roller coaster ride really does exist where you hang off a tower?

I've looked it up on the Internet about a roller coaster in Vegas that goes around a tower, but nothing about it hanging off the tower!

Anyone got any info on this ride?

Yes, it does truly exist, and I've ridden it. BUT, will NEVER do it again!! A better ride is the Big Shot, also on the Stratosphere Tower! I ride that multiple times in a row when I go there.

Just watched a couple of videos that are on YouTube ....

No ..... just NO .....

It really exists, and though I'm not easily frightened and love thrill rides, it's the scariest ride I've ever been on.

You can also jump off the side of the Stratosphere in a jumpsuit attached to a cable, and do a controlled fall all the way to the ground--I've done that too, and the roller coaster is way scarier.

It really feels like they're going to hurl you off the side of the building!

I was scared when they were just walking up to the front seat lol. Didn't seem to be any guardrails.

Mary Steenbergen said she hated it but that her character was supposed to be enjoying it...

What made it worse was they had to reshoot the scene a few times before they got it right...

Here's to those who wish me well...

She is one hell of a foxy 60 year old and I agree with Ellen. She probably should have won an Oscar for going on it 6 times and pretending it was fun. It does look terrifying.

Yes, it does exist! I went on it two years ago. I love roller coasters and have no problem with heights but that was...scary.
