  • If you like being high and I mean this literally.. then Big Shot is for you! You begin your journey by going up 100 stories w/c if I'm not mistaken is about 1,081 feet above the ground. Then the ride takes you up another 160 feet but this time you're strapped on and it only takes 2 seconds at a force of 4gs. It may be a bit scary when you think about it but once you are up there you forget that because you would be so amazed at how the sights are from that height and not to mention you kind of feel weightless and a bit buzzed. Then you go down and up again sort of bobbing at a speed of 45mph.

    While you are there you might as well try the 2 other rides namely X-scream and Insanity
