Fancy operating a colossal machine? At Dig This in Las Vegas, your wildest fantasies can come true.
Dig This is a heavy equipment playground. It is not just another attraction on the Las Vegas Strip. Here, adults can play with actual construction equipment.
Ed Mumm, a New Zealander, developed this theme park. He was inspired by his own experience using heavy equipment to build his home. Mumm wanted to create a safe environment for others to use these incredible machines.
The first Dig This opened in Colorado in December 2007. Hundreds of tourists came for the chance to operate heavy machinery. The Las Vegas location opened in May 2011. Happy customers have been digging ever since.
At Dig This, you can push around giant rocks. You can dig trenches and even throw 2,000-pound tires into the air. Mumm originally considered using smaller equipment. He said Americans love big stuff.
