Join us on a new Expedition Theme Park as we look at the troubled history of High Roller & The Stratosphere unbuilt concepts. This roller coaster was the highest in the world at over 900 feet but was not the most thrilling ride closing in 2005. Other unbuilt coasters were planned for the landmark of Las Vegas such as a King Kong attraction and a coaster over 700 feet built by Arrow. Once again this coaster is just part of the curse of Vegas Coasters and ended up extinct.

Today Vegas has some interesting attractions but the past rides and theme parks such as MGM Grand and Speed The Ride have all disappeared. Cancelled attractions and troubled rides seems to go hand in hand with the city.

Join us as we look at the history of the Stratosphere and rides on top.
