The channel obtained the original blueprints for the tower. They show 32 steel support beams connecting the dome\u2019s main two floors, all along the circumference. They would have impeded a moving platform by the windows, while bathrooms prevented one further back.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_249182\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-249182\" data-style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-249182 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sunset-room.jpg\" alt=\"Sunset Room at the Landmark Hotel Las Vegas\" width=\"1200\" height=\"674\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sunset-room.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sunset-room-858x482.jpg 858w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sunset-room-430x242.jpg 430w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption  id=\"caption-attachment-249182\"class=\"text-description\">The Sunset Room atop the Landmark Hotel is shown with steel support beams that would have impeded a revolving platform.

Here, an obstructive stairwell and elevator are what made revolving impossible.<\/p>\n<p>But, just to be certain, the YouTube channel obtained original marketing materials and located newspaper reviews for all the Landmark restaurants and bars. As expected, none mentioned movement of any sort.<\/p>\n<p>Memories undoubtedly conflated the Landmark restaurants with the Top of the World at the Strat, which revolves 360 degrees every 80 minutes. The Strat opened as the Stratosphere in 1996, six years after the Landmark closed and a year after its implosion.<\/p>\n<div class=\"arve\" data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-dv4pjxuft8a66ed08cd799c7348923451\" style=\"max-width:900px;\">\n<span class=\"arve-inner\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 500 \/ 281\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:56.200000%\"><\/span><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" data-arve=\"arve-youtube-dv4pjxuft8a66ed08cd799c7348923451\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/dv4pJXufT8A?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"505.8\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/dv4pJXufT8A?feature=oembed&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;modestbranding=1&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autoplay=0\" width=\"900\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><br \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"http:\\\/\\\/schema.org\\\/\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.casino.org\\\/news\\\/vegas-myth-busted-the-restaurant-atop-the-landmark-hotel-revolved\\\/#arve-youtube-dv4pjxuft8a66ed08cd799c7348923451\",\"type\":\"VideoObject\",\"embedURL\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\\\/embed\\\/dv4pJXufT8A?feature=oembed&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&autohide=1&playsinline=0&autoplay=0\"}<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Since this was the shortest busted myth in this series so far, here\u2019s a bonus myth, also about the Landmark&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><b>A Man Flew a Plane into the Landmark to Kill His Wife<\/b><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_249174\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-249174\" data-style=\"width: 358px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-249174\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/landmark-crash-site-facebook.jpg\" alt=\"Evert Wayne Shaw crash site\" width=\"358\" height=\"370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/landmark-crash-site-facebook.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/landmark-crash-site-facebook-858x886.jpg 858w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/landmark-crash-site-facebook-430x444.jpg 430w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 358px) 100vw, 358px\" \/><figcaption  id=\"caption-attachment-249174\"class=\"text-description\">The site where a stolen plane crashed into the roof of the Las Vegas Convention Center (foreground), killing pilot Everett Wayne Shaw. The plane had clipped the &#8216;L&#8217; sign atop the Landmark Hotel (background) and spun out of control. (Image: Las Vegas News Bureau)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For the 1996 movie &#8220;Mars Attacks,&#8221; director Tim Burton shot footage of the Landmark\u2019s 1995 implosion to simulate its destruction in an attack by Martians. In real life, an earlier attack on the iconic Vegas Strip structure had been planned and came within a few dozen feet of being carried out.<\/p>\n<p>At 9:25 p.m. on Aug. 2, 1968, a small plane clipped and damaged the \u201cL\u201d sign atop the dome, then crashed into the Las Vegas Convention Center across the street. Only the pilot, Everett Wayne Shaw, 39, died in the crash. According to a note found at his apartment, the crash was a suicide, not an accident.<\/p>\n<p>Shaw, an airplane mechanic who worked at Nevada\u2019s Jean Airport, was inconsolable over the failure of his month-old marriage. So he stole a Cessna 180 belonging to Alan Little, a dealer at the Frontier Hotel, for his fateful mission.<\/p>\n<p>Eyewitnesses reported that the plane pulled upward at the last minute. This strongly suggests that Shaw had intended to crash it into the Landmark\u2019s dome but had a change of heart and clipped the sign by mistake. The move sent him on a death spiral into the Convention Center\u2019s roof.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, it <em>was<\/em> an accident.<\/p>\n<p>According to the way many people have told this story, Shaw chose the Landmark\u2019s dome because his wife planned to dine in one of the restaurants there that evening, possibly with a lover, and he intended to take her\/them out with him.<\/p>\n<p>That part of the story wouldn\u2019t have been possible, though. The Landmark didn\u2019t open to the public until almost a year later, on July 1, 1969.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Look for \u201cVegas Myths Busted\u201d every Monday on <\/strong><em><strong>Casino.org.
