Manhattan Express Roller Coaster, Las Vegas

Considered one of the best things to do in Las Vegas, the Manhattan Express's looping roller coaster flies in and out of the casino hotel and circles around the impressive New York skyline facade so riders can get their negative Gs and bragging rights. With heights of 203 feet, drops of 144 feet and speeds up to 67 MPH, this coaster mimics the barrel-roll of a jet fighter, rolling 180 degrees, hanging 86 feet in the air, then diving back under itself at dizzying speeds. The ride then empties into a Coney Island midway area with plenty of New York-themed games and computerized competition entertainment. The cost of the ride: $14; unlimited Scream Pass: $25. Taking the plunge and getting hitched on the Express: $600-$700 for the wildest ride of your life.
