Definitely not!

Hithere Tue 01-Jun-21 21:02:56

Yes!

Nannagarra Tue 01-Jun-21 21:12:43

I’d love it!

aggie Tue 01-Jun-21 21:18:50

Yikes! Not for me !

Sago Tue 01-Jun-21 21:55:59

Nightmare ???

Urmstongran Tue 01-Jun-21 21:56:40

No way José!
I guess no one saw the recent collapse, and shattering, of China's, Piyan Mountain glass bridge, that had a 100 metre drop. People were walking across the bridge, when it the wind caused the whole thing to shatter and collapse.

Yes. I get in a car every day. Much riskier. And much less fun.

Kim19 Tue 01-Jun-21 22:02:42

I'm just not sure. Think the novelty effect would attract me in the end.

kittylester Tue 01-Jun-21 22:04:20

It's made me feel quite poorly just thinking about it.

Blossoming Tue 01-Jun-21 22:14:21

Nope.

Good point!

It looks wonderful but I have no head for heights so you wouldn't get me up there. I imagine my daughter would be first to dive in, though!

Hellogirl1 Tue 01-Jun-21 22:26:27

If I could swim, yes, I would.

BlueBelle Tue 01-Jun-21 22:29:18

Nope I m not a thrill seeker and walking on a glass floor high up in the sky once was enough for me

Ditto. I don’t think I’d be allowed in with my armbands. A tasteful cork float might be acceptable though?

The driving a car thing isn't quite the same. Although a random crash can come from nowhere, for the most part one has some form of control. In a floating swimming pool (as on the 100metre glass bridge) there is no control at all!

Ro60 Tue 01-Jun-21 23:01:14

Ooh yes - my kind if extreme swimming.?

About the only thing in our world today that is transparent.

More to the point, a distorted vision of me, seen from below???

I doubt anyone could be persuaded to walk underneath if you paid them.

But would I like to swim in it, Yes!!

No!

timetogo2016 Wed 02-Jun-21 08:46:03

ERRRRRRRRRRRRRM NO.

25Avalon Wed 02-Jun-21 08:49:14

Wow! That’s amazing but not for me.

FannyCornforth Wed 02-Jun-21 09:08:23

It's a combination of so many phobias...

lemongrove Wed 02-Jun-21 09:17:56

Saw this on the news yesterday.....NO!!!!!

henetha Wed 02-Jun-21 09:31:20

I certainly would have when I was younger. Not sure now I'm ancient.
