The Market Square Tower, a luxury apartment building in Houston, recently posted a heart-stopping video of the building’s “sky pool” to their Instagram page earlier this month. In the clip, shown from a top-down perspective, someone films themselves walking onto the Sky Pool’s ledge, a clear-bottomed area that looks straight down over Houston from nearly 50 stories up.
