Almost a thousand feet above the city, there is a 45-foot long, 1.25 inch thick clear glass slide attached to the side of the US Bank building, which allows riders to slide down from the 70th floor to the 69th. There is also an adjoining 360-degree observation deck called the Skyspace, which gives visitors more time to enjoy the view or realize their fear of heights. 洛杉磯的聯邦銀行大樓離地約一千英尺，一側裝有一個45英尺長，1.25英寸厚的透明玻璃滑梯，乘客可以從第七十層滑到第六十九層。旁邊還有一個360度觀景臺，稱為空中觀景平臺（skyspace），給游客更多的時間來享受美景或發覺自己的恐高癥。
According to Instagram fans, the “Skyslide” is pretty darn cool.據圖片分享應用Instagram的粉絲稱，“空中滑梯”相當酷。 We hope the slide is as cool as it looks — it cost as much as a roller coaster to build: $3.5 million! We’re not sure what’s more terrifying: the price tag or the actual experience. To ride, visitors board a gray mat and pull it up over their feet to form a makeshift sled, then scoot themselves over the precipice. Commence screaming! (Concerned about traffic jams? Don’t be: Only one person may go at a time.) 我們希望這個滑梯跟看起來一樣酷，因為它花費的成本趕得上一個 過山車：350萬美元！我們不確定價格標簽和實際體驗哪個更驚人。要玩這個滑梯，游客坐在一個灰色的墊子上，將墊子拉起，蓋過自己的腳，形成一個臨時的雪 橇，然后迅速滑下滑梯。開始尖叫！（關心交通堵塞？無需擔心：每次只有一個人可以去。）
And don’t worry, the slide is perfectly safe. Lucy Rumantir, president and chief executive of the company that owns the building, told The Los Angeles Timesthat “the slide is strong enough to hang a school bus filled with people off of it.” That’s pretty darn strong. 別擔心，滑梯非常安全。露西-羅曼特爾是該建筑所屬公司的總裁兼首席執行官，她告訴《洛杉磯時報》說，“這個滑梯足以掛住一輛擠滿人的校車。”那是相當的牢靠。 Nonetheless, if you are not comfortable riding the slide, you can chill out on the Skyspace and take in the view. To ease those nerves with liquid courage, the Skyspace will also host a small bar. 不過，如果你滑滑梯會覺得不適，可以在空中觀景平臺上放松一下，看看風景?？罩杏^景平臺還將設一個小酒吧，你還可以喝點酒精飲料舒緩一下神經。
Tickets to visit the Skyspace are $25 for adults, $22 for seniors, and $19 for children ages 3-12. A ride on the Skyslide costs an additional $8. 空中觀景平臺的門票價格為成人25美元，老年人22美元，3-12歲的兒童19美元。乘坐“空中滑梯”額外收費8美元。 |
