The Mirante do Vale, a skyscraper in Brazil, which happens to be the tallest building in Sau Paulo is currently inviting visitors for a small adventure.

It has opened a glass-bottom viewing deck on the 42nd floor for visitors to come and conquer their fear of heights.

The designers say they wanted to give visitors the experience of floating high in the sky and over the city.

A report by UPI mentions that some early visitors who were given a preview of the attraction described the experience as disorienting but beautiful.

Sampa Sky. the attraction was inspired by the Ledge, a glass-bottom deck installed on the 103rd floor of the Willis Tower in Chicago.

Since 1974, SkyDeck on the Willis Tower has been attracting visitors. It was created afterward due to the forehead prints left on the glass by tourists.
