Footage of a glass-bottomed infinity pool hanging off the 42nd floor of a Texas apartment building in downtown Houston is making its rounds on social media.

The video was originally shared by management on the Market Place Tower Facebook page Thursday and has since garnered nearly 3 million views.

The rooftop pool, which opened in October 2016,  juts 10 feet over the edge of the building and is suspended about 500 feet above the ground, the Houston Chronicle reported.

The only thing standing between swimmers and the streets beneath them is eight-inch-thick plexiglass.

According to CNN, the building was designed by Houston's Jackson & Ryan Architects and its rooftop terrace has views of downtown Houston's skyline as well as Buffalo Bayou Park.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, for those adamantly screaming “NOPE” after watching the footage), the pool is not open to the public.

But if you're interested in renting the property, Business Insider reports that the largest penthouse closest to the pool is priced at about $18,715 a month and a studio in the building at $1,805.
