Is SkyJump Worth It? Price, Fear Factor & How to Save

SkyJump is the biggest dare in Las Vegas: a step off a platform on the 108th floor of The STRAT, 855 feet up, followed by an 829-foot descent down the face of the tower at speeds past 40 mph. You're harnessed to a guide-wire decelerator - not a bungee - so the fall is fast but controlled the whole way, ending in a stand-up landing on the pad below.

The sticker price is real: $139.99 Monday through Thursday, $169.99 Friday through Sunday. The operator's own discounts are generous, though. STRAT hotel guests and Nevada locals jump for $99.99 any day, and a Monday–Thursday happy hour between 2 and 3 PM is $99. Budget 35–45 minutes for the whole process from check-in to landing; the jump itself is seconds. Minimum age is 14, the weight cap is 265 pounds, and high winds pause operations, which is one more reason earlier slots are safer bets. Photos and the wrist-cam video are sold separately, in packages that push the total past $150.

Insider tipThe Monday–Thursday 2–3 PM happy hour cuts the jump to $99, and if you're staying at The STRAT anyway the guest rate is $99.99 at any slot. Book morning-side times in winter and spring; afternoon winds scrub more jumps than anything else.

Frequently asked questions

Is SkyJump a bungee jump?

No - you're attached to a guide-wire decelerator that controls the whole 829-foot descent. It's much faster than it sounds, past 40 mph, but there's no bounce and no free-fall whip; you land standing on a pad.

How much does SkyJump cost - and how do people pay less?

$139.99 Monday through Thursday and $169.99 Friday through Sunday. The two honest shortcuts: be a STRAT hotel guest or Nevada resident ($99.99 any day), or hit the Monday–Thursday happy hour between 2 and 3 PM for $99.

How high is it really?

The platform juts out from the 108th floor at 855 feet; the wire run to the pad is 829 feet. For scale, that's a jump from half again the height of the High Roller's top point.

Can anyone do it?

Anyone 14 or older under 265 pounds, with a parent or guardian's consent if you're under 18. No experience needed, since staff handle every strap, but genuine fear of heights tends to make itself known on the walk to the platform.

Do I get a video of my jump?

Only if you buy it. The wrist-cam video and photo packages are separate purchases that lift the total well past the base price, so budget for it going in; friends can also film your landing from the pad area for free.
