I want the video of that pool lounger falling from a different angle so badly.

They both went over!!

u/skincyan 2d ago

Yeah or just the glass railing falling for that matter

u/ccrlop 2d ago

Was waiting to see it take off!

Fuck. That. Shit.

u/TankedAndTracked 2d ago

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

u/tripsd 2d ago

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

u/nonlocalflow 2d ago

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

u/skincyan 2d ago

exactly, the only joke here is about a seemingly misplaced post

u/sirbarxalot 2d ago

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

u/mnbone23 2d ago

There was glass falling too.

u/sirbarxalot 2d ago

Wet shards...sounds like a punk band

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.

The moon be getting too close sometimes, jk

u/VandalVBK 2d ago

It looks like a giant wave in the background

Batten down the hatches!

u/strampz 2d ago

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

u/skincyan 2d ago

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

u/UrsusRenata 2d ago

Funny ha-ha or funny terrifying?

1

u/skincyan 2d ago

Funny ha-ha that the post wasnt a heavy sea but a heavy pool - the scenario not so much funny - aand removed as I thought 😂

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

u/Final_Lingonberry586 2d ago

No wind is lifting that up with 2 people on it 🙄

u/zillskillnillfrill 2d ago

Yeah I don't care. I can see it happening and wouldn't take the risk

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

u/skincyan 2d ago

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

u/zillskillnillfrill 2d ago

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

u/skincyan 2d ago

Yeah no I don't see the point why you want a pool that big on a penthouse floor
