What exactly is SkyJump?

It’s the only sky jump in North America and the highest in the world. SkyJump is a controlled descent, similar to a vertical zip line. The launching pad platform is located on the 108th floor of Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower in Las Vegas, 855 feet above the Las Vegas Strip. Jumpers are harnessed in and attached to a cable that is connected to a descender machine. Guide wires keep the SkyJumper on course and on target. Just before reaching the rapidly approaching ground, the SkyJumper is slowed down for a controlled and safe landing.

What are the weight requirements?

Jumper must weigh under 265 pounds.

Can I bring my own personal recording devices?

Only SkyJump recording devices permitted. USBs for photos and videos of SkyJumper’s experience are available inside the store for purchase.

Where’s the best place for my friends/family to watch me from?

There is a special viewing area adjacent to the SkyJump landing pad, located right outside the SkyJump store. Viewers can watch SkyJumpers descending from the comfort of reclining chaise lounges directly below the platform.

Is there a secure place to put my personal items while I jump?

Yes, SkyJumpers will have access to their own personal locker, with a key.

How safe is it?

SkyJump has operated for the last seven years with over 250,000 jumps. It is inspected daily by our ride engineers and is certified annually.
