Angela Cox,
takes a photo with her phone as she takes a ride down a glass slide during a media preview day at the U.S. Bank Tower building in downtown Los Angeles, on June 23, 2016. Starting this weekend, thrill-seekers can begin taking the “Skyslide,” a 1,000 feet high slide perched on the outside of the tallest skyscraper west of the Mississippi. All that separates riders from the dizzying space below is a piece of glass just 1.25 inches thick. Photos of the Week: 6/18-6/24 - The AtlanticPosted by gerardvanderleun at June 26, 2016 12:56 PM
I would do it. I 'd just think twice before doing it in short shorts.

Posted by: Jack at June 27, 2016 7:22 AMUnless it wraps all the way around the building and ends at least ten floors down, I'm not paying eight bucks.
Now then, if the Skyslide went from the US Bank building to a neighboring skyscraper, then you'd have something.

Exactly.
Pictures of people taking selfies always, but always, remind me of that old cartoon of the idiot looking confused as he smacks himself in the head with a hammer.
