Yes but the dare devil in me left the room a few years ago.

FannyCornforth Sat 05-Jun-21 09:51:55

So would I, that should say, apologies!

Don’t think so I’d rather have a pork pie wink

So would Elizabeth - and I've been vegetarian for 38 years!

Shropshirelass Sat 05-Jun-21 08:30:52

No, not for me. I like my feet firmly planted on the ground, not good with heights at all.

I’d need a few drinks first!

OMG I swim but also get vertigo, that could be my worst nightmare.

Olive53 Fri 04-Jun-21 18:41:03

Oh no, don’t think I’d be brave enough. ??

NOOOOOO shock!

Summerfly Thu 03-Jun-21 21:36:55

Nooo! ?

TrendyNannie6 Thu 03-Jun-21 21:05:51

Never

Daftbag1 Thu 03-Jun-21 20:54:46

Yes but back stroke only!

Having stepped onto the glass floor of the Commonwealth Tower in Toronto several years ago it’s a definite no.

Catterygirl Thu 03-Jun-21 17:51:11

I am not a daredevil but quite a good swimmer, so a definite YES from me. Wonder how much the apartments cost.

stewaris Thu 03-Jun-21 17:41:28

Absolutely no way. In my head there are also a few expletives in there. However, I know a few adrenaline junkies who would just love it.

Marmight Thu 03-Jun-21 17:34:35

No way. I reckon it’s an accident waiting to happen ?

I think my fear of heights would put me off, but if it was a "paid for treat" - I'd take of my specs and give it a go. I'm partially sighted and have very little vision, so I definitely wouldn't be able to see much around me, or even below me!

Tooyoungytobeagrandma Thu 03-Jun-21 17:29:08

HELL NO??

Talullah Thu 03-Jun-21 17:17:34

Maybe all those who would like to have a go should rock up and get them to allow us in. Such fun smile

Craftycat Thu 03-Jun-21 17:15:36

Not a chance!! But then I am not a very good swimmer anyway.

Treetops05 Thu 03-Jun-21 16:49:43

No, I'd be terrified.

Maggiemaybe Thu 03-Jun-21 16:18:06

I’ve always said I’ll take up smoking again if I make it to my 90s, but I think the craving’s wearing off now. I gave up 40 years ago. grin

varian Thu 03-Jun-21 16:08:05

I'd love to but maybe not for as few more years. I'm planning to take up dangerous sports in my nineties when I've got less to lose.

Maggiemaybe Thu 03-Jun-21 16:07:40

I did a tap dance on the glass floor of the Jin Mao in Shanghai when people were daring each other to step on it (yes, showing off shamelessly) when it was the third or fourth highest building in the world. It’s around 34th now. I’d love to experience some of the very highest.

Unfortunately DH hates heights so I can guarantee I’ll be on my own when I do. smile

Sawsage2 Thu 03-Jun-21 15:59:20

Definitely yes?
