A slide has opened in L.A. It is on the outside of a building, 300 metres high. It is made of 3-cm-thick glass. It cost $3.5 million to make. The slide starts at the 70th floor and goes down 15 metres. It takes about five seconds from top to bottom 1. Only one person can slide at a time.
 
The tower's owner wanted to make something that other buildings didn't have. The slide can support the weight of a school bus. A reporter went on the slide. He said you finish very quickly.
