'Death defying' infinity pool planned to top London skyscraper | WBNS-10TV Columbus, Ohio

LONDON – An infinity rooftop pool that's planned for London is not for the faint of heart.

Designers say the 55- story building, named Infinity London, would be the only building in the world to incorporate a 360-degree infinity pool.

The 600,000-liter pool will be made of cast acrylic and have transparent sides and floors so people inside the building can see swimmers above them

So how do you enter such a pristine pool? By using a spiral staircase that rotates and rises through the water.

"Swimmers will access the pool through a rotating spiral based on the door of a submarine, rising from the pool floor when someone wants to get in or out, "Compass Pools said in a news release.

Construction could begin as early as 2020.
