Don't worry folks

It's fixed to the ground with the strongest blu tac

A parachute salesman could make a killing !

And the first typhoon that comes near will destroy it. If that doesn't happen it will decay in a few years from lack of maintenance until it makes its own disaster. I sure hope it's the first one and not the second because it just means more foreigners getting hurt in Thailand. What a waste of money. Looks like a good place to go fishing though.

or it could be really cool.

glass is half full, iinit?

Wow, the merchants of doom are out in force today!

Looks like a good place for police who have fallen foul of powerful figures to take their last sky walk.

Hello welcome to the skywalk!

....and your number is, errr, (looks closer) twenty twoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...........................................

Can't wait to walk and fall through that one.

Wow, the merchants of doom are out in force today!

Indeed... But with the collective sceptism shown, it may well be worth your while to heed these warnings.

A friend, in Western Australia, has a maintenance contract on a skywalk, and he inspects it, with a team of rope access "technicians" (that's what they like to be called) every six months, and the crew is regularly repairing stress related issues

With the obvious lack of maintenance that is Thailand, I would only consider going for a walk, between six months of operation ( to prove its strength) and its first anniversary. (Before issues regards safety crop up)

Just saying...,saying "no"... A decent safety railing system (including mesh to stop things like kids from falling) would probably have been better... Or an elevated viewing platform perhaps

It's a jungle out there, and death is always lurking around.

After the twin towers in New York was attacked, all parachute related magazines ran warnings not to sell parachutes to high rise desk jockeys....

There is a lot more to parachuting (skydiving) than simply falling towards the ground, especially with BASE jumping, which, due to its heightened danger factor, is illegal in a lot of places.... But I suppose a wise man would be forgiven for having a back up option/plan

I'm surprised the walls are so high.

The workers might be all midges.

I will not be using it.Remember the old adage.

I like my feet on terra firma the more firma the less terror.

Now heres 1 for the more sharp eyed members. Whats wrong with what i just posted above.?

Nothing wrong there Bugger ..... firma is good! 55

Opened at the end of March and closed for renovation / repair ... ?

Once completed, the glass skywalk will be able to accommodate up to 20 people at a time.

So 'No Chinese' then

I will not be using it.Remember the old adage.

We know Colin....i just wish you could walk out there, even if you did sh@t your pants...lol

Those things are a waste of money. I was at the one at The Grand Canyon. They wanted something like 30 dollars to walk out on it. The view i had was very good, couldn't see any reason to pay the fee.

Well considering the history of substandard Thai construction, I think I will pass - even though they might say "trust me, I m Thai".

Naaa What could possibly go wrong..?

As long as you wear the correct amulets and check for an auspicious day to go.

Thailand's first glass skywalk will be open to public in March.
Thai people: 20thb

Fralangs, farlangs, faralangs and other aliens: 200thb

Thx but no thx

Future headline in the making: Airwalk Collapse Horror

followed by the update: Airwalk Collapse Horror Was Caused By Farlangs Because Bigger And Fatter Than Thai People

The ONLY transparent building project in Thailand.

I'm not tingtong to step on a construction like that made by Thais....

can hold 20 people at one time, mmmm I wonder who will monitor that ,, Maybe I'm wrong but i see disaster

20 thai's @ 50kg each or 20 westerners @ at 100kg each?

I'm surprised the walls are so high.

This is not a balcony

No thanks. Thai building standard one of only a few worse than Chinese building standard

there is a glass skywalk in a block opposite my condo at Phra khanong, you can peer down 46 ? floors if i remember correctly , use to be called Zepplin, but has changed its name now i think, has a restaurant up there as well.

So; do tell us how you WALKED to Thailand ? Lol.

Would not set foot on that. I have seen Thai construction quality and to be nice it was not impressive

So, do you stay out of all Thai buildings ove 1 story?

What assinine responses on this thread.

20 people rule enforced with the "me first" culture amongst locals? More like pack 'em in and count the bahts. When* it collapses we'll see the usual scapegoat game and how tourism will be affected

Designer must be nervous if it will only be able to accomodate 20 people at a time.
