Hehehe!
Stairs for the brave! :)
Remember, there is superb bullet proof glass. It won't break with your weight. Now repeat 10 times and breath before you get on that stairs :)

These make me uncomfortable. My brain tells me they are plenty strong and not dangerous, but my gut tells me it ain't natural.

Besides, I don't want just anyone looking up my kilt.

Every nightclub should have them. And I would mount a video camer under the stairs and broadcast the images around the bar. Guess who is wearing the pink ones!

Are you sure those weren't custom commissions for VoyeurDorm?

:lol2: Good one.

I want to know.

The stairs in that first picture have no handrail, so most people would put their hand on the glass. I wonder how often you would have to clean it.

Exactly, HLJ. And how are they attached...with glue? Although, I would think cleanup would be easier than with wood or carpet...just use windex.

They are stuck in the wall. 3 inch glass is very strong. And if it is actually laminated bits, which they prob are, like safety glass they are even stronger.

100% true, swear to god. He's only managed to go all the way through with it twice, because usually his shirt gets in the way and I have enough time to stop him from getting his hand in. And sometimes his hand gets in but he hasn't pooped. But he doesn't much like it when I scream and run him into the bathroom dangling by the offending arm, so hopefully he'll stop trying soon.

Hmm. Just reminded me of a poem I haven't read in a long time -

Mother to Son by Langston Hughes

Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor—
Bare.
But all the time
I'se been a-climbin' on,
And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.
So, boy, don't you turn back.
Don't you set down on the steps.
'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.
Don't you fall now—
For I'se still goin', honey,
I'se still climbin',
And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

I think you should all quit "throwing stones".

So far Friday Afternoon isn't being nice. Don't make me go back to Monday Morning.
