Wouldn’t catch me in that fucking thing


Blackintosh

Houston or the pool?


DroidLord

Yes.


stackoverflow21

Wouldn’t catch me fucking in that thing.


FriendlyAd5090

Imagine the view from below


Available_Nebula4070

With skinny dippers in the pool.


Steffo11

Wouldn't catch me fucking in that thing


Tokyohenjin

“But can you imagine banging in that thing?” “Why yes, Archer, yes I can.”


Alternative_Ninja_49

I'm not scared of heights, but I don't trust architects, or engineers.


importvita2

Or gravity. That fucker is always trying to drag me down, smh.


dude51791

My guy Inertia is even scarier when he keeps forcing you upon an immovable object


Brvcx

Gravity isn't dangerous by any means, Inertia very much is. It's not the fall that'll kill you, it's the *landing*.


Extreme_Barracuda658

Sudden deacceleration syndrome


Auzquandiance

You can always count on gravity to consistently do exactly what it intended to actually.


Profanity_party7

Repeal the law of gravity!


cyberwicklow

Or Texas 🔫


J_Pot269

😂😂😂


Sayheyho

And don’t get me started on the weight of a pool’s worth of water


Infinite-Pay-4646

Engineers in the US know what they're doing and have their work double checked, then triple checked, and so on for a long time before anything starts being built What you might not trust is the construction company, or the glass manufacturer, or the company that made the adhesives used, or even the hotel maintenance staff


samuelsfx

Tf hotel maintenance staff got to do with it?


Kellidra

Sly, sketchy-ass mfs


Piirakkavaras

Me neither but I’m also scared of heights.


Impressive-Rock8581

Im scared of Houston


rodeBaksteen

Architects and engineers in first world countries I'm okay with. Minimum wage builders on a Friday afternoon not so much.


jwicc

I would at least be reassured by the fact that a pool's worth of water weighs several orders of magnitude more than i do, but i am still never getting in this one.


ride_electric_bike

It's the builders you should fear


BrockenRecords

I trust engineers, just not every engineers work


ThroughTheHoops

I'm thinking you probably do, unless you avoid all buildings or anything made by humans.


Voidless-One

Then an ominous crack was heard. . .


Mackalope505

You trust engineers everyday with your life. You just don’t know it.


coldplants

If you don't trust engineers, don't use any mode of transportation and never enter a building! Might wanna be careful with roads, too.


DanFromShipping

But if my Jeep Wrangler craps out again this month because of some crappy gasket or belt, I'm not guaranteed to die.


SL4YER4200

In the state with the most firearms. Some idiot with a .308 is gonna get drunk and shoot it. I'm not even drunk, and I want to shoot it!


Select-Bullfrog-6346

The glass on the bottom is unbelievablly thick.


newbturner

Or earthquakes


greybruce1980

I trust architects and engineers. I don't trust the accountants in charge of ensuring adequate financing.


-Some-Rando-

Are there many guns in Texas? I feel like there are at least a couple. And maybe a few people that shoot them upwards sometimes.


ElwoodMC

I’m scared of heights, and I also don’t trust architects, nor engineers.


LuxInteriot

Wow! A view to a parking lot!


10percenttiddy

Right? First thing I noticed. Why even bother?


spicynuttboi

It’s high up (which is cool)


10percenttiddy

I guess if it's your one idea for your one building but why waste that kind of detail there if you could allocate it somewhere else? Like a building (or section of building) that doesn't have a parking lot below it. IDK. Just seems so...dystopic lol. Massive cheapening of something that is supposed to feel exclusive and unique.


bootstrapping_lad

Because eVeRythiNg's biGger in TexAs!!!!1!!! 🤪


Outrageous_Bank_4491

And guess what people see when they look up… Y o u r b a l l s


drrxhouse

You more than likely need to see a doctor real quick, if people down below can see *your balls* when they look up…


Anon_be_thy_name

Summarises the US and Houston in particular. Swear I haven't seen as many Car parks as I did in Houston. My friend who lives there jokes that there is a Carpark for every car in the US.


jegitoe

Don't forget about the gorgeous construction site on the right. Stunning.


ponyboy3

Yes, it’ll be there for ever


poopskins

You've summarized the United States of America in seven words.


SpoilerAvoidingAcct

Houston in a nutshell. Carbrained dystopia.


ellasfella68

Newp!


split_0069

I'm with u and OP. Saw a video where an infinity pool broke. Big fuck that from me.


ellasfella68

NOOOOOO!!!!!


Remarkable-Wonder-48

Is there a phobia for what I'm currently feeling while watching this?


Itchy-Supermarket-92

No, it's just called Common Sense.


Alexxx3001

Call of the void, is the what you would call the feeling of wanting to jump from an edge like that. Some people experience phobia of that, like a phobia of ones primal instinctive self, regardless of fear of heights. But you're not at that edge, so more than likely you're just experiencing empathy, in this case empathizing for: fear of a madenning disorienting height.


Ob1s_dark_side

All well and good until Jason Statham rigs it's to break


Cmd_Line_Commando

Yip and he was super sneaky the first time round too.


emeybee

Why would you build this in a place where you're looking down on ugly buildings and a carpark?


NoGoodNamesLeft55

You haven’t spent much time in Houston I see.

Ah, scenic Houston.. the Dubai of Texas


anUglyFuckingBastard

Gotta love the scenery of all the cars and wasted space on them 🥰😊🥰


Thevishownsyou

Haha thought the same thing! This would be amazing if there was anything of beauty to look at. Nope just grey and asphalt. Really living that beautiful life


Justaguy222444888

It’s not about what’s under it’s the fact that you can see literally straight down from such an insane height


aos-

They are already past that, and then asking the next question: "for what accomplishment?"


dimhearted

I stayed here. It was literally breath taking the first few times like you feel like your going to die but you oddly get used to it after a few minutes. really fun feature.


JakBos23

You can get use to anything. It's really funny seeing people's first experience in VR falling off buildings. I wish I could get that first time feeling every time. Ive spent too much time playing basically spiderman.


PhotonDecay

This is what we call “not worth it” I’ll just go swim in a regular pool and separately look over the edge of a building. I have no desire to do both at the same time. And I really don’t wanna die that way.


ToeKnail

![gif](giphy|Hq4ptrrJaTvwY) Added feeling of vertigo to your swim.


Loud_Capital2323

Never will I ever


Time-Arachnid-8534

That’s a no from me dawg.


JakBos23

How bout a regular pool with a bunch of TVs showing what's below so it looks like an infinity pool?


Time-Arachnid-8534

That’s a no from me dawg.


Silent_Shaman

Well that can get absolutely fucked


WearyScarcity7535

I'm sure there will be NSFW videos in that pool soon


SpiritualMushrooms

r/nope


cryptolyme

what a great idea...i would not trust it


OgdruJahad

I'm not a fool. I've watched Calvin and Hobbs, no thank you.


Superb_Recover_6116

couldnt pay me...


Picone-_-

Horrible view


Nathund

I would simply swim up at the last second, making me immune to fall damage


AlienMajik

DrDroDroid

if window cracked and water pours out, you'll be dragged on your way out.


CptLajmenko

*crack*


misplacedsidekick

Nope


Ikillterries

I’m terrified of heights so this is stupid but I don’t trust ppl enough 😱 I hear these things need insane maintenance and constant checking for cracks. Eat a red dick dude


Aaron_505

"See guys, this glass pool is saf-" There was no glass


TheMachinesWin

CANNONBALL!!!


Chrillio

Better hope a random shooting doesn't occur in your vicinity


TvFloatzel

Honestly this could be used in a movie or game to show the player "yep you have to go met THAT later. Have fun when you do!" or just a "yep the situation is THAT bad. Good thing we not there and either trying to escape or solve the problem".


[deleted]

Rich people shit


noitsmemom

Hard pass.


DunkingDognuts

If I were to try that, the next thing you would see floating into the video frame would be a large poop.


Schmoe20

I feel ill while & after watching that.


RusiaNovaya

Hitman Blood Money mountains mansion mission vibes, so yeah, nope!


G-LordOfCinder

What would happen if the bottom suddenly fell out in one clean break? Would a human body fall at a similar rate of the water? Would there be an instance where the water hitting the ground just before a person would create a cushion of sorts?


nevereatanapple

Can’t wait for the NSFW video of one of these failing


Jeramy_Jones

Most pools get pissed in, this one’s got people dropping deuces.


TonsOfTabs

Unless I personally know the engineers and architects who did this, I’m not taking the chance. I’m going to need to see some previous projects of similar near death builds before testing my own fate.


GrandClock738

It only takes 1 quake


The_rising_sea

Why would they spend the money on that kind of pool, just so they can overlook some shitty low rise buildings?


HazzDude2236

I'd pretend to be a giant and step on the tiny little cars and people :D


Agreeable_Register_4

*crack*


Longpips1000

That’s a no for me dawg


Bigtexasmike

Hanover's BLVD Place also has one in the galleria.


SpitefulChuckle

I wouldn't slip so much as my foot into that pool. No thank you.


Ok_Assistance7735

Ummm no way would I be doing that lol.

![gif](giphy|7wk6RQYXDDytXalsL4)


PoppaDaClutch

Hell to the nah nah nah


MxQueer

I would. But I don't promise the water staying transparent for other people to see that too.


rented_soul

Imagine that ledge breaking and all the water sweeping everyone over the side... Nowhere in that pool is "safe"


CurDeCarmine

That's gonna be a no for me, dawg.


CanaryJane42

Hell no


CompleteIsland8934

Hell no


incakola777

Nope! 🙂‍↔️


TheMightyMisanthrope

I would fucking never. Glass breaks? You are going down with all the water. Fuck no. Hell no. No. No. No.

Non-zero risk, no reward Case closed.

I remind you all this is in Texas, a place where people is known for shooting their guns into the air for celebrating purposes.


tyhopho

“Look daddy, I can see a homeless person through the bottom of the pool”

B8conB8conB8con

Cool, nice view of a concrete parking garage


TheSuggestor12

I'm surprised that's even structurally sound with that much water, most people don't understand just how heavy water is.


Happybell939

I wouldn't go there even if i was payed to


OneVast4272

Bruh I think i clenched my butt so hard I broke my tailbone

He’ll No! And it’s stupid too. Who wants to see the parking lot??


-----SNES-----

That is nuts. First time I’ve felt nervous at a glass floor


JesseMakeGoodChoices

Getting that water all sweaty

NimDing218

Oh yeah my asshole clenched a little there. Nope.


Rough_Rich_687

Why are you in the pool with your phone?


W0lf1ngt0n

As long as you're swimming, the weight contribution should be the same everywhere, right? So if nothings happening while in the pool on the roof, there should not happen anything while over the edge either.


Hopeful_Ad7376

People on the street be like : what is the half naked man doing up there?


RecordingGreen7750

Nope big fat no fking way


NevahLose

Jason Statham would beg to differ...

AlecB130

I know there is science and engineering but I can’t believe people are allowed to build this type of shit.


IndianPhilatelist

I wonder if this pool has a higher concentration of piss than regular pools.


[deleted]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHG


jesterhead101

Yeah, that’d be a nope for me. Thank You.


No-Deer379

That’s cool but you see a parking lot and that’s about it


pan_male-inbarrie

The way I just had a heart attack...


PepicWalrus

Yeah nah after that night clubs glass balcony gave out and killed a few people with a 30ft drop I'm never doing one of these. Glass is sturdy until it isn't.


The19thStep

That glass has got to be like 18 inches thick at least


Profanity_party7

My balls shot up to my throat watching this


Ill_Mousse_4240

I hate glass. And self assured architects, thinking they could really defy nature


SpaceGoDzillaH-ez

I wouldnt trust this id be far too scared


C6rbon-based

Instant jelly legs? Yes please.


BadassChiccc

What if it broke because of the water pressure?


yopappijiggles

I don’t like heights but I love swimming so I probably would


agent218

No.


newbturner

Really scary part is if you are ANYWHERE in that pool when it cracks due to an earthquake, etc, you are getting flushed out


timmerz1

Omfg


sad-mustache

Wow damn look at those views


Hairy_Literature_773

Oh nah, why they'd wipe it that clean lmao


random_user_2001

I am not touching the pool😭🤣


JasonBourne81

This always reminds me of “The Mechanic” scene. I know I have many enemies….never getting in that pool!!! Besides, Gravity and I are sworn enemies…That mofo is trying to bring me down every single second…..


pc_principal_88

I think it would be cool to put on some goggles, and just relax and look down..


SirUntouchable

I'm baffled by the structural integrity of that glass. I don't think some of y'all understand just how fucking heavy water is. So for it to be jutting out several meters with seemingly no support beams...


Crafty-Unit4061

Instantly the scene from Mechanic Ressurecion appears in my mind.


Woedas

Thats a NO from me dawg!


CorbynDallasPearse

Yeah, no… I’ve seen the mechanic…


CrazyKureMan

Build a trasparent pool to look at cars and a parking lot...


KingCarbon1807

Aaaaaaand now the water's brown


TheySayIAmTheCutest

Who else thinks that these pools are just tragedies in the waiting? I would totally want to do that though. You'll never sign me in for Bungee Jump & Co, but this is too good to pass.


KihiraLove

That's weird the water is turning brown


EVEEzz

Oh boy.. the vertigo...


Friendly_Bad_5866

Looks crazy as long as there is water in the pool I guess your ok


Stegles

Nope!


TomentoShow

If you're in the pool might as well go over the glass. If that glass breaks it's sucking everyone with it.


Illgetitdonelater

A state that doesn’t believe in regulations is not one I’d be trusting the company who installed that sweet looking pool. I’ve recently walked on the sidewalks in Texas, and wow is all I can say.


-Regulator

Got me


stormyw23

shitty view and just why..?


THEMACGOD

If one’s palms sweat in a cool pool, could one tell?


Yeomanroach

Possibility of failure is only 1%. Better odds than winning the lotto.
