美国芝加哥西尔斯大厦（Sears Tower）在第103层瞭望台增设的玻璃阳台对媒体开放，这些玻璃阳台建在大厦西侧，从瞭望台向外延伸约1.2米。阳台的玻璃地板厚达12.7厘米，可承重约5吨。胆大的游客可以站在上面，从412米高空俯视芝加哥。由于玻璃是透明的，游客会感到自己悬在空中，产生一不小心就会掉下去的感觉。所以胆小的人恐怕还没站到这个恐怖阳台上就已经腿软了。

nspiration came from the hundreds of forehead prints visitors left behind on Skydeck windows every week. Now, staff will have a new glass surface to clean: floors.

Architect Ross Wimer said: 'We did studies that showed a four-foot-deep (1.2 metres) enclosure makes you feel like you're floating since there's only room for one row of people, not two.'

The Skydeck attracts 25,000 visitors on clear days. They each pay $15 to take an elevator ride up to the 103rd floor of the 110-story office building that opened in 1973.
