"Insanity-The Ride is the next level in an ongoing trend of creating the most extreme thrill ride out there," said Bobby Ray Harris, general manager and senior vice president of operations at Stratosphere Casino Hotel and Tower. "Coming off our recent success with the X Scream thrill ride, which was launched on Halloween 2003, we're looking forward to this new breed of highly aggressive thrill ride to stretch the endurance and limits of thrill seekers at Stratosphere. The difference between X Scream and Insanity is that X Scream drives riders crazy by playing upon their fear of heights and falling. The new Insanity ride, well, you'll have to be nuts to even think about getting on it," Harris added. "X Scream blows your mind. Insanity is for riders whose minds are already blown."
