Glass Floor 103 Stories Up at Sears Tower

This is a view from the Sears Tower. Yes, that is glass and yes, you are suspended more than 1,300 feet up in the air (from the 103rd story) when you step out onto it.

There is no way I'd walk out on that glass platform of three layers of 1/2-inch thick glass. There is also no way I'd let my kids do it either. You can call me "chicken" all you want but it's not happening! My thoughts of human error and smacking the pavement 1,300 feet below would prevent me. Would you do it?

Yo that kind of glass is made so that even one layer can withstand huge impact, like dropping a car on to it or whatever.
Unless you're like massively obese then you will be fine.

Logically, my brain knows that but my intense fear would override logic in this case:)
