Sears Tower Unveils 103rd Floor Glass Balconies

[TheNyCsound]

It's all fun and games until this turns into a free fall plummeting to a splattering death. Watermelon anybody?

[insanity23mike]

Anyone know how long is the line wait, price and the amount of time you're allowed to enjoy the view before having to move out and letting someone else in

[AlvinHDavernport]

If I were a billionaire I'd buy the naming rights to this building and call it Sears Tower again. Maybe I'd also buy a couple hundred thousand square feet of office space and kick those British assholes who named it "Willis Tower" the fuck out.

No offense to my British friends. But how would you feel if Walmart acquired the Big Ben's naming rights and named it "Fat Sam"?

[evan5068]

That's not bad parenting to dumb ass

[myDon65]

I would not fell safe with fat people on their

[ND1003]

bad parenting at 1:23

[devin9402]

this teaches u not to throw rocks in glass houses.or masterbait in the daytimme

[cascascas86]

I was in there yesterday!

[Gideon1928]

Imagine being the guys who had to install this.

[81Donnie]

Scary

[sk8ta7722]

HOLY SHT.....Chicago is FUKING HUGE lol JK :P

[jimamia77]

what is it with Chicago and two antenna buildings and new york with one antenna buildings? Does Chicago think they're better then us cause of 2 antennas? It makes their skyscrapers look like giant insects. Make way for 1 WTC!

[primeminister87]

@jimamia77 sears tower was taller than the twin towers and taller than the new world trade being built if you exclude the antennas

[TheUKsportsRADIO]

That's fuckin crazy, I wouldn't even make it to the 103rd floor without gettin scared

[chodewarriors1123]

how the fuck did they make those?

[mtn529]

@BinLadenRocks where u from, cause I think you jelly.

[BinLadenRocks1]

bin laden should've taken this crap Sears tower instead of the World Trade Center -_-

[Popteart]

No way in hell I'd step out on that after I saw a 500 lb. person get out of it.

[drumstud3000]

you can look all the way down 1353ft on to WACK HER drive

[carlsm95]

I still cannot believe this American landmark was re-named Willis Tower. It will always be the Sears Tower to me and I think almost everyone would agree. "Willis" just sounds like an old lady's name. If McDonalds transferred their headquarters to the Empire State Building and got the naming rights, I'm pretty sure even this unscrupulous corporation wouldn't dare rename it "The McDonalds Building"

[Popteart]

@carlsm95 reminds me of "wha'coo talkin' bout, willis?"

[Regginyaga]

Sears did wtc

[Regginyaga]

@potatoes4200 I mean hey brought down the world trade center so they could own the worlds tallest building

[potatoes4200]

@Regginyaga sears was taller anyway. world trade center wasn't over 1400ft. sears is.

[26Deacon]

@Superhero6734ify who cares if the obvservatory of the world trade building? its gone dumb ass hence no comparison.

[MrRnbdude3]

I don't judge people on first impressions...but the fat nickelbitch glasses gator cap ass can go fuck himself.

and to me it will always the SEARS TOWER lol.

[yourboycal]

What is it going to take a big accident before we realize these tour tours are a bad idea lol ..... i can't imagine being up there during an earthquake ... can you imagine waking up in the middle of the night to an earthquake and ur on like the 30th floor oh my

[armeg35]

@yourboycal We don't get earthquakes here broski.

[jeremy951892]

i cant even watch this shit....

[elasticrubberband123]

they should have a " who dares to jump the most" contest

[DRxRICHTOFENx21]

1 1/2 inch thick REALLY and it can take 4 semis. Wat kind of glass is that?

[chitownlakai17]

8 people broke the glass and fell

[bmxrider222]

anybody elses palms sweating and heart beating fast? >,> omfg i hate heights

[TheDadMommy]

that baby laying down made me shit my pants

[godwarmw2]

suddenly, someone drops a shot put

[gollfan10]

IS THAT GLASS SAFEEE?????????????

[roberdude12345]

I thought sears had to change the name to "Ron Whites Big ol' goddamned building" after his experience with the tires at sears automotive?

[Wiz4Rd7]

Like the guy above me FUCK THAT.

[CaptainCrazzzy]

@Superhero6734ify OKAY, BUT THE TWIN TOWERS HAVEN'T EXISTED IN ABOUT 10 YEARS BRO, I HATE TO BE THE ONE TO HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS BUT THEY GOT DESTROYED IN A TERRORIST ATTACK. I KNOW..... CRAZY SHIT. ALSO, IT'S NOT EVEN CALLED THE SEARS TOWER ANYMORE ITS THE WILLIS TOWER..... BRO YOU NEED TO GET UP TO DATE.

[nyrangerfan15]

i would shit myself silly



[MrPete60441]

@nyrangerfan15  lol lol ... me too..

[CaptainCrazzzy]

@Superhero6734ify HEY FAGGOT WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT ME, DO YOU THINK I'M DEAF? I CAN HEAR YOU BRO THERE IS NO NEED TO SHOUT.

[CaptainCrazzzy]

hmmm... NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE.

[656LEGOGUY]

Best tower in the world

[marcomariaz26]

2 words: HELL YEAH!!

[RansomCowboy]

7 people are scared of heights..

[MaIefic]

It literally made me dizzy just seeing that girl laying down right there. o.o

[TheMrdecepticon]

OMFG THAT LITLTE GIRL IS MORE BRAVE THAN ME! lol

[dangerjae]

Employer: After the halls, there's this glass balcony that needs to be done as well.

Employee: Fuck that.

[bartmaster1234]

Now Throw An Anvil Onto The Floor.

[DocUnsane]

Lotsa people must be fucking themselves...

lulz

[Popteart]

I know this little fat fuck that looks exactly like the kid wearing a Nickelback shirt in this video. I want to beat his little ass so hard.

[PUTSOUTHINYOURMOUTH]

SEARS EMPLOYEES ARE TOTAL RETARDS AND COULD NOT SCREW IN A LIGHTBULB WITH A VIDEO AND A MANUAL. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE BLOWS LIKE A CHARLIE SHEEN WHORE WITH A TIGER BLOOD INJECTION!

[mitchellmcpherson1]

i get to go cant wait

[PUTSOUTHINYOURMOUTH]

SEARS POSSESSES A LEVEL OF CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT MIRRORS CIRCUIT CITY. AND WE ALL KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM NOW DON'T WE?

[Jackson18203]

[JediCandice]

[badbadbabys]

Woops the glass broke

[JackTheGreat99]

Wools the glass broke

[TheSolonigga]

i thought they were suppose to be making a another building biier thant the sears tower in chicago???? anybody kno anything about it?

[halofanteam]

"Say Pizza!"

wait what?

[PIlotrcm]

what they need is a "non-disclosed" or mentioned 1 inch booth drop that happens once you are out in the platform...then record their expressions...SELL IT!

[panwala5]

Does anyone know that Fazlur Rahman Khan made this? OMG No one even mentions his awesomeness ... He did a good job and I think people should appreciate more to that dude than they do to glass balconies. A smart Muslim

[bosnagurl1234]

i would be scared shitless to go out onto the ledge..

[KIZDEV09]

i went up it tumbs up if u did ? its cool the elvator is fast

[EliteDarknessScyther]

I love the baby trying to eat her moms hand going "COOKIE!!!"

[zqdz123]

jump on it

[hotdrumchick]

I don't care how many names you call it. I'm a Chicagoan by birth and it will always be the Sears Tower to me!

(The Willis Tower?? Feels like I should be singing the "Different Strokes" song, lol!)

[PabloBobadillaLopez]

CHI is cool but to windy and shit. its gray like Seattle which i love. but the location of this town isn't that great its about being on the coast to me. been there when i was 14 for a family weeding wasn't that different from any other major city i been to. it was to flat Seattle has mountain ranges and a volcano. ever green state fresh air my god i love it in the north west never moving from here even if i had the chance to live anywhere in the world. and if i did it would be bill gates home.

[Infamous256]

@PabloBobadillaLopez No disrespect but you are comparing Chicago to Seattle??? Like Really??? What is Seattle known for?? Fish markets and Coffee????

[LadyGaga0619]

I'm goin to Chicago on December 4! And I'm goin on that glass

[tracer740]

I would not step out on that glass balcony if there was a fat lady already on it. Do they even allow fat ladies to use it?

[anonymous5536]

@tracer740 i'm sure they have a weight limit :P

[FastFerrari82]

two words - FUCK THAT!!

[DanielsSFD]

@FastFerrari82

Ha. It's really not scary.

[hockeykid30b]

That clear glass floor would freak me out

[PabloBobadillaLopez]

they have the same thing at the Seattle space needle. but i think it better than this one. because its in Seattle baby

[GunsNRosesbitches]

@PabloBobadillaLopez No its not, cuz this one is 103 floors high. Thats about 1,350 feet above the street level. The space needle is like 600 feet tall...not even half the height of this monster.

Besides, as clean and as cool as Seattle is, it's still not on Chicago's level. You are talking about a city that's literally 5x larger than Seattle. There's more to do, more to see in a huge city like Chicago. It's called the New York of the Midwest, and surely they aint joking about it.

[PabloBobadillaLopez]

@GunsNRosesbitches HAHAHA i was in vacation there anything you can do there you can do here trust me fool you neva been to seattle. and its not the new york of the mid west lol and besides who would want to live in a crowded messy ass city like NYC.im from the peaceful town were we get the best chronic and coffee because its clam and beautiful. CHI is all right. but dont compare that to the SEA because the pacific ocean is the ocean to be. A volcano at its view. surrounded by green forest. yup

[donnyab]

@PabloBobadillaLopez

Yep you're right cant beat west coast, all those forests and beaches and clean fresh air and the charm of it all. What a truly great city Vancouver is.

[PabloBobadillaLopez]

i thought the twin towers were the biggest buildings

[GunsNRosesbitches]

@PabloBobadillaLopez The Sears Tower (now Willis Tower) in Chicago has been the tallest skyscraper in the western hemisphere since 1974. In fact, it was the tallest building in the world until 2003. The twin towers in NYC were only the tallest in the world for 2 years, until this one beat it out by like a small margin. Besides, Chicago has one of the greatest skylines in the world and is home to some of the tallest buildings in the world.

[Zebrone7]

umbeliveable

[metemi]

Wow, it supported all those fat people.

[alfonsmc]

Is that glass or some kind of composite like methacrylate? Regards.

[theraptorfan100]

Way to get with the times Chicago. Toronto had this 15 years ago on the CN Tower.

[BennyBamfamous]

@theraptorfan100 lol

[MilitantDOAR]

Don't drop the spark plug!

[bigtruckseriesreview]

I don't want fat people next to me if I go to this.

[AVIATIO]

Wilis Tower, my fucking ASS. It is called SEARS Tower and all which disagree can go fuck themselves.

[raerae1234567890]

@AVIATIO finnaly sumbody dat agrees with me...i have never even heard of the "wilis" tower

[tracer740]

@AVIATIO - Whut choo talkin 'bout, Willis?

[TheSolonigga]

@AVIATIO i know that shit pissed me off too! that shit is gay as hell

[defrancotv]

@AVIATIO i will never call it willis tower it will always be sears tower in my heart.

[cuzinz4eve]

@AVIATIO the name got changed to willis tower :PP

[A135S4656]

It'll always be Sears tower, not Willis.

I was on the ledge once, I live in Oak Lawn by Chicago, the only problem was it was too cloudy to see below.

[pytko3]

@A135S4656 YEAH! They may call it the Willis Tower now, but I will ALWAYS call it the SEARS TOWER! Willis sounds way too dorky for such a magnificent, tall, strong building. Sears fits it's appearance perfectly!

[rickardo004]

SEARS TOWER FOR LIFE. Fuck you Willis.

[billcounterstrike]

hey im in chicago right now on vacation

[Y0uEnj0yMyself]

I love and miss Chicago

[c1rcu1tn3rd]

you'd never get me on that

[MEANCRACKEN2]

anyone know how tall htis is compared to the eiffel tower please respond.

[c1rcu1tn3rd]

@MEANCRACKEN2 The Sears Tower is 1,451 feet tall at the top floor (108 stories). The Eiffel Tower is 896 feet tall at the top floor which is the 3rd floor.

[thenenebello21]

@DiamondbackKI23 fuck youuuuuuuuuuuuuu....regardless if is mexican is a child u fucking bitch........fuck uuuuuuuu fuck uuuuuuu fuck uuuuuuu fuck uuuuuuu fuck uuuu I'm done with your fucking  ass when r u visiting the sears towers so I can break the glass when u stand on it.......more oxygen for our world

[wwefanworld]

[ifuseekamy]

Would anyone go on one of those glass balconies after a morbidly obese person walked off it?

[DaSoulSlasher]

@ifuseekamy

the morbidly obese person prolly wouldnt be allowed in the damn elevator lol

[FunTrollin]

Ha that fat four-eyed faggot is wearing a nickelback shirt and a gators cap, now the whole world can laugh at this epic failure.

[ifuseekamy]

@FunTrollin haha

[T6435P]

Safety Harness Required

[aalakfan]

how is it that dubai started construction its building in 04 and completed by 09 and yet in 01 the world trade towers demolished 9 years later still a big hole in the ground. how, about a starbucks, dairy queen or even a f**kin carwash put something there. can we accomplish anything in this county? this is f**kin sad and pitiful.

[dharmok]

@aalakfan it's called respect, you tool. ground zero exists to commemorate those who lost their lives in the 9/11 attacks.

[laidy211]

[123RUTH123]

[eJPuNkBiLL]

[ethersoul]

That was one of the most scary things I did when I visited the skydeck! It took a lot of courage lol at one point I sat down and looked down, my friend comes up from behind unexpectedly and shakes me and screams AHHH!!! and I almost shit my pants! I was hyperventilating! I almost killed him hahah good times.

[80sbandsrock]

I swear to god it cracked when i was there today! a guy dropped a paperweight and the thing cracked. NO JOKE. I swear on my life i saw it i have pictures and ill upload them.

[LuminousAeon]

You couldnt get me on that balcony to save my life! that made my feet sweat and my stomach turn just watching the video.

[ducktapeduck456]

i went on it and i was with two 50 year old fat people. the fat guy says, "C'mon dont be scared, have some fun!" yeah I dont wanna fuckin fall like 4267821832687 feet. but when i was on i said, the water is right there so we wont die!" but the water was acroosss the street

Thats all that goes on in my mind while watching this.

[moneydude1995]

i was there a few months ago and its all not that bad cause i live in chicago

[WorldTravelTV]

@Independofuck No the facade is being not changed, there are plans to change the old windows, add efficent lighting, boilers, elevators, green roofs, wind turbines and change the giant black marbel signage outside to a thinner, transparent, live led signage with images of Chicago. You could google Willis Tower Renovation for more info.

[Entor090]

mennyi japó. Ezek midnehol ottvannak :)

[Thaiteek]

Úgy nem igazi a fíling, ha tömve van emberrel, egyedül kell kimenni. :)

[Independofuck]

I heard rumors that someone actually thinks of recladding the SEARS Tower, changing the perfectly fine black aluminium skin with ?silver aluminum? CHICAGOANS!!! IT'S TIME TO ACT!!! THIS TOWER NEEDS TO GAIN LANDMARK STATUS NOW!!! BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!! PRESERVE HISTORY NOW!!!

[buddyred1]

1:20 LOL~~~

[JasonJForrest]

that child @ 1:23 is brave! lol

[SandburgSpartans]

@JasonJForrest it's not scary. i've been on it 3 times and the first time, i was jumping around and i wasn't scared :D

[JacKn1feSugarTrucK]

Doodz, this is crazy.

[kseniorita09]

[TRUTHINTHEBIBLE]

Sadists.

Masochists!

Disestablimentarianismist!

Cruel.

Cruel

Cruel.

I'm sorry Sears Building. I mean,

Cool!

Cool!

Cool!

[ChiSox2386]

great view of my city

[vashthestampede11]

that image of the kid lying on the glass is just downright unsettling.

[ryan4191]

Why was that funny?

[MetalMonsterGuitar]

notnhg

[marlinsrock9]

i said that but it realy is 4 semi sized cars my bro said later so i looked bad lol

[chasterb8er]

four semis my white texan ass

[YouGotJEWD]

lol i was thinking the same thing, i live in chicago and fuck that i don't trust it

[johnnystir]

Messes with your balance. Nice innovation!

[myownkangaroo]

i feel bad for whoever had to test it out to see if it was stable when they were building it.

*worker falls through*

hmm... thicker glass next time.

[japajill]

wow thats all they can come up with now go to dubai and look at the innovation their

[crackkyadome]

Sure, Dubai has the tallest building in the world. But Chicago has one of the most distinctive and definetely the most artistic skyline in the world. Personally, I'd rather have the latter. Now go fuck yourself

[ufcpride101]

@crackkyadome Everyone knows Toronto has the best skyline in NA

[billnyethe1742]

@crackkyadome yeah I know I have been to both chicago and dubai and dubai is just like boring sand and like buildings like all in one place and they are all like modern desgin and it looks stupid but chicago has like it all organized and like Anon tower and hancok building and it looks much nicer than some big building in a desert

[CiG801]

@crackkyadome Amen.

[jdilley861]

@crackkyadome I definantley agree! Plus the building in Dubai is the "tallest" building because of some stupid long point that they put on top of it. You can't even go in it.... So the Sears Tower is the TALLEST BUILDING THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY GO IN

[Ntrendguy]

@jdilley861 No it's not, but you are right that the stupid spire on the Burj Khalifa determines it's height :P

[AreaCode978]

@crackkyadome That made me laugh. Nice.

[hypemuch]

yeah, its all fun and games until ......

[moodyblue77]

I WAS OUT ON THOSE 2 DAYS AGO. AMAZING

[19iris92g]

i went on it last monday, it was so scary, but awesome at the same time

[bluemoney11]

funny if it broke

[ashmantoronto]

ooooh this looks actually MUCH cooler than the CN Tower Glass Floor

[presnillajones]

my legs would be trembling if i were on that thing

[chasterb8er]

I have a zoom in version of The Ledge on my page. Check it out. I'm also wearing the new Vibram Five Fingers.
