You've heard of the glass ceiling, right?

Mikaela says:

Well how about a glass bottom?

Scheduled to open January 1, 2006 on the Hualapai Indian Reservation:

Grand Canyon Skywalk

• Juts 70 feet into the canyon, 4000 ft above Colorado River
• Will accommodate 120 people comfortably
• Built with more than a million pounds of steel beams, and includes dampeners that minimize the structure's vibration
• Designed to hold 72 million pounds, withstand an 8.0 magnitude earthquake 50 miles away, and withstand winds in excess of 100 mph
• The walkway has a glass bottom and sides...four inches thick

All I can say is they better also be prepared to hose it down everyday, because I can only imagine how many people will piss themselves once they work up the courage step out into nothingness. Talk about a leap of faith! Anyone gotta mop?
