Irish-designed Sky Pool in London is only the latest incredible swimming spot
People swim in the Sky Pool in London.
A transparent swimming pool bridge across two exclusive residential blocks has astounded the world - and it was designed by an Irish company.
Standing next to the US Embassy in Nine Elms, south London, the Sky Pool links two luxury apartment blocks and allows residents to swim in the sky, 35 metres above the street.
It was created by Ballymore, an Irish property developer owned by Sean Mulryan.
Filled with 148,000 litres of water, the Irish company claims it is the first pool of its kind in the world, spanning 15 metres and suspended 10 storeys high.
