Stratosphere Tower (The STRAT) observation rides

The Stratosphere Tower (branded as The STRAT) at the north end of the Strip features observation decks and thrill rides atop its 1,149-foot tower that opened in 1996. Video clips showing riders on SkyJump, Insanity, and X-Scream have frequently gone viral and been repurposed as memes highlighting extreme views or fear reactions. The tower is a common backdrop in internet posts about daring tourist experiences in Las Vegas.
