  • Finally, I did this with a group of some Yelp pals (old and new) for a UYE. I've been wanting to do this for a while. You can't go down Fremont Street anymore without some person or two zooming above your head these days. So it got to me, and I had to add it to my "Things I've Done" list. Admittedly, the sign up sheet is a little scary. They talk of waiving all liabilities, fooling around may cause death, etc., and I know it's all "CYA" legalese, but for some reason, it made me a little nervous. Getting up there, I was fitted with my harness (a little snug in the nethers, but I'd prefer a tight fit if I'm going to be flinging about for two blocks or more). My main concern, being that I am of a light build, was that I'm going to get halfway across, run out of momentum, and just sit there, swinging back and forth saying "Well, crap" with a hint of resignation. But I fit the weight limit, so all was well. Getting up there, the height didn't bother me. Sure, I had a case of "twitchy leg" before they launched me, but once out and on my way, I enjoyed the ride. It actually fairly relaxing cruising along Fremont Street, and kind of fun seeing the casinos at that level. If you think you're going to be scared, don't be. It really is enjoyable once you get going. At the end, I actually wanted a picture as I got a good action pose going, but the photos are $20. Really? That's way to expensive for a photo. It's actually more expensive than the pre-6 o'clock prices. The souvenir shouldn't cost more than the experience, and I'm going to be a little haughty in saying this, but if they had a local's discount, I would have bought one. You pay for the ride, they have a tip jar, then they want to charge a potential third fee that's the most expensive? No thank you. Shame, really. I wanted the picture. It's a cool experience. I'd highly recommend it, and I'll more than likely go again because it's fun and novel and different. And the staff was nice. But I'd really suggest they drop the photo prices, as there's no reason why a print-out of a digital picture should cost that much.
