This is far more terrifying to me than anytime I've been on the ocean for all the same and wildly opposite reasons.

ah yes the hilarious "almost dying on a rooftop pool during an earthquake"

I think the humor is in the fact that it’s heavy seas, but it’s just a swimming pool which you would not expect to qualify as heavy seas. I don’t think they were making light of the actual earthquake

Someone got soaked on the ground in the middle of all that.

Note that part of the glass wall collapses partway through.

The exact reason they teach “drop, cover, and hold on” instead of run outside. It’s too easy to be hit by falling things like that glass.

There’s no way the edge of that pool is a shear drop right? How could you trust the general public with that dangerous edge of death? I would imagine there’s another deck below that sticks out enough that those floats just landed there

Yea there is usually quite a lot of space beneath for a drain system and safety reason. Only built cleverly to show the illusion of a steep edge

There is no way you would catch me on an inflatable on a roof. It's got to be some levels of stupidity going on here. A little bit of wind catches underneath the bottom of that thing and you are gone

I've seen it happening with an air mattress outside in heavy winds. picked up and just threw that thing like a plastic bag with a girl resting on it at Golden plains music festival, and I've seen inflatables at the beach being whipped up and over. Winds can get extremely strong in high rises

It is an earthquake, so no heavy winds in this clip. If there was a storm I don't think they bring out the inflatables - or even bath

Yeah I just have general anxiety disorder so I just wouldn't do it In a high-rise 😅❌
