Now this is what I call a pool! Clearly it beats the kak out of my overpaid vinyl splash-pool hastily erected at a precarious let’s-see-how-long-till-this-FAILs angle in my garden.
First up: the background info (for those of you who considers yourselves to be “readers”):
If you fancy a dip in this pool, you’ll need a head for heights – it’s 55 storeys up.
But swimming to the edge won’t be quite as risky as it looks. While the water in the infinity pool seems to end in a sheer drop, it actually spills into a catchment area where it is pumped back into the main pool. At three times the length of an Olympic pool and 650ft up, it is the largest outdoor pool in the world at that height.
It features in the impressive, boat-shaped ‘SkyPark’ perched atop the three towers that make up the world’s most expensive hotel, the £4billion Marina Bay Sands development in Singapore.
Fascinating. Here’s what all the fuss is about:
Ja, that’ll do.
Now I would really love to enjoy a Jack and coke while chilling and enjoying that view – wow, it looks amazing. Most look so wonderful at night, but anyone scared of heights?
