Big Shot Las Vegas: Review, Tickets & What to Expect

The Big Shot is the crowning thrill atop The STRAT and the highest thrill ride in the United States. From a platform already more than 900 feet up, it launches you straight up the tower's needle-like spire at 45 mph, pinning you with around 4 Gs of force before letting you drop back down in a series of stomach-lurching bounces.

At the peak you're over 1,000 feet above the Strip, with jaw-dropping views in every direction — if you dare to open your eyes. It's priced separately from tower entry, so a combo is best if you plan to ride more than one of the top-of-tower thrills. Not for the faint-hearted. Check current pricing online.

Insider tipPerched atop the tower, it shoots you even higher up the spire — it's priced separately from tower entry, so grab a combo if you'll ride more than one, and it's not for anyone wary of heights.
