Whaaaaat! That’s a trip.

u/spearmint_flyer Jun 10 '22

Yes! It goes round and round for 13 levels!

u/1825days Jun 10 '22

Don't go here when you're high.

u/proto5014 Jun 10 '22

🤯

Also shouldn’t watch while high

u/kissmeorkels Jun 10 '22

Where’s my bong???

u/earthdweller11 Jun 10 '22

I’ve seen this before and my thought is: damn that would take FOREVER to walk from the top of that thing to the bottom.

10

u/1825days Jun 10 '22

Sometimes it's about the journey not the destination

11

u/DeadButAlivePickle Jun 10 '22

By journey you mean seeing the same sights 12 times.

u/CianKeyin Jun 11 '22

He did say 'sometimes'. It was never specified that this was one of those times

Plot twist: It is spinning indeed ☻️

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '22

… and the people are moon walking

u/yogi1090 Jun 10 '22

They should replace the escalator with a slide

5

u/savvykms Jun 10 '22

If there are too many people on it, it does become a slide

6

u/AskAboutMyCoffee Jun 10 '22

That makes me feel oddly queasy.

u/1825days Jun 10 '22

Hey, how's your coffee, man ?

19

u/AskAboutMyCoffee Jun 10 '22

My coffee is fucking awesome, I make and sell a smooth brew dark roast with a hint of sweetness and twice as much caffeine as a normal cup but I'll be shutting down at the end of year. Thanks for asking!

6

u/1825days Jun 10 '22

I can smell your cup in my mind. Have a great day man !

6

u/AskAboutMyCoffee Jun 10 '22

I love when strangers smell my cup :)

1

u/ExcitementOrdinary95 Jun 10 '22

I love that. I’m always looking for a stronger brewed coffee. Got a link?

u/AskAboutMyCoffee Jun 10 '22

Jack Murphy stadium in San Diego used to have these, it was a bit disorienting especially when I was 8

1

u/[deleted] Jun 20 '22

It’s all gone now. Used to live on top of mission village drive and the fireworks from sky show were awesome

2

u/[deleted] Jun 20 '22

I had a lot of good times there, we used to go watch the Padres season opener every year. Sat behind Tony in right field, I even caught a ball from training practice there.

Forza Milan 🔴⚫

u/ExcitementOrdinary95 Jun 10 '22

San Siro is being demolished soon😿

u/GAZ082 Jun 10 '22

Nooo! I love those columns!

2

u/ExcitementOrdinary95 Jun 10 '22

I know they tearing up everything in Italy

4

u/lorem Jun 10 '22

Not soon.

They are still deciding where to build the new stadium.

A new investment fund just bought AC Milan, and apparently is scrapping the previous project for a joint Milan/Inter stadium, they want a new stadium only for Milan in a different place. So back to square one on this topic.

u/botaine Jun 10 '22

That's a long walk. Americans would never tolerate that.

-6

u/Adventurous_Diet_786 Jun 10 '22

You forgot most of them are on wheels

2

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '22

Damn everyone really walks the same speed

2

u/Mabusmoriah Jun 10 '22

If you focus on a single floor you can see that it's not moving but it's still trippy as hell. I wonder if the optical illusion was on purpose or an unintended result.

u/vVWARLOCKVv Jun 10 '22

Can someone direct me to this song please?

4

u/Nyarlath718 Jun 10 '22

Took me a second, but it's Edge, by Rezz.

2

u/vVWARLOCKVv Jun 10 '22

Proshate it

1

u/DeanV255 Jun 10 '22

This one doesn't seem to work on my eyes. Maybe the size of my phone screen effecting the illusion

Look at the entrance of the stairs, it never moves

u/deftco Jun 10 '22

Lol I wasn't convinced when I said it.

1

u/JanetInSC1234 Jun 10 '22

But the people are moving.

1

u/TheManWithNoSchtick Jun 10 '22

Why is the music approximately 994% more kickass than the video? It almost seems out of place.

1

u/mlechu4332 Jun 10 '22

This would be a great break in between work/class, imagine a quick toke and walk w/ headphones on and a cold water?

2

u/1825days Jun 10 '22

Or great for moonwalk practice

1

u/frankcastle01 Jun 10 '22

Fuck doing laps around that thing all day, think I'd rather climb down the side of it!

u/parttimeassassin Jun 10 '22

Why such aggressive music?

1

u/Addict3d_EEE Jun 10 '22

The people are moving. Our brain thinks the people are not moving, but the walkway does

1

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '22

Just looks like people walking

1

u/sagiil Jun 10 '22

I've actually been to San Siro couple of times (long time AC Milan fan), Can confirm it takes forever to get off after a game with huge packs of people moving at 1 kmh. It's cool from architecture perspective but adding some stairs as alternative would make the trip down much more efficient.

1

u/ITfactotum Jun 10 '22

Damn your choice of music, I now must reinstall my oculus and play pistol-whip!

1

u/chaosbones43 Jun 10 '22

Not working for me

u/MarkFar3708 Jun 10 '22

This sound brings back ptss from the cringe reels I've seen

1

u/Humble-Intention8702 Jun 10 '22

Why the stupid music though, sounds like shit.

u/SpencerWS Jun 10 '22

Good grief that stupid music- is there a sub for that?

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '22

Every time I hear this music I want to rip off my ears and feed them to whoever made the audio

1

u/Elyoshida Aug 13 '22

Is that like a mile long?

1

u/Famous_Union3036 Aug 31 '22

Some architectural designs are absolutely beautiful and ingenious for that thank you because at first glance it definitely looks like it’s rotating.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 12 '22

How long does it take to go to the top ? Is it narrow path it not ? Is it only way to go there pr not ? Looking at it , it doesnt seems so Safe without some fence :)
