Oh HELL No...


This is an artist's rendition of the glass observation ledge being built on the 103rd floor of the Sears/Willis Tower in Chicago. See the story HERE (h/t to Joe.My.God).

I don't care if you offered me a dream date with Franky G or a lifetime supply of Arby's Roast Beef, I would NEVER go out on that thing. I am afraid of heights, although it's OK if they let you stand behind some big strong stone wall. But standing on GLASS?? No thank you...

    Honey, I almost fainted from vertigo when I was on the OLD observation deck looking at a helicopter passing below me.

    And when did it become the Sears/WILLIS Tower?

    No matter, because I'm more concerned with Michigan Avenue and Ukrainian Town when I am there....

    Mame, I 'll be right there with you. I don't mind heights but I'll be damn I walk out there on that thing. What happens if I have the extra cheese stick and there happens to be a hairline crack?

    In "The Windy City"? They better have a harness and heavy cable strapped to their backs. The glass is the least of the worries.

    I don't have a fear of heights, but I do have a fear of falling, so no way would I ever walk on a glass floor! I can't even walk on the glass block second floor walkways at the local shopping mall!
