Stratosphere Tower
Summary Via Public Feedback:
-
At 1,149 feet, the
Stratosphere Tower is the tallest freestanding observation
tower in the United States and can be seen from all over Las
Vegas. Public feedback regarding the amusement rides on top
of it have been mixed. Due to 2 notable incidents, the
public is extremely suspect concerning the safety of the
amusement rides on the Stratosphere Tower.
-
On April 20th, 2005 the
Insanity attraction stalled for more than 80 minutes! A
young girl was stuck up in the air in the bitter cold while
officials tried to get her back to safety. The public who
contacted us indicated that if an attraction can stall for
80 minutes, who's to say it cannot happen again? Good
question.
-
The Las Vegas media and the
paying public have been in touch with Amusement Safety
Organization regarding this venue. They, too wonder how
Clark County Inspectors could pass attractions up on the
Stratosphere Tower with no manual ways of getting a stalled
attraction back to its platform. It is a question like that
which has us scratching our heads and begs the most obvious
question: how does one overseeing the safety of the public
overlook such a thing?
