Floating Staircase, How many pounds will it hold?

Wow, check out this floating staircase, do you think it will hold an average American over 250 pounds through daily stress???

This “floating staircase” was designed by Jordi Vayreda of Jordivayreda Projectteam (Spain). It may look dangerous, but that’s only because the guard-rails are made of the same invisible material as the risers.

“do you think it will hold an average American over 250 pounds through daily stress???”

The approximate average adult American weight at the beginning of 2006 was calculated to be 179.85 pounds.

The spam protection questions are pretty tough, huh?

Americans only average 250 if you count all the money in their pockets.

I would change the average fat american to the average fat american in the fly over and southern states. Most likely where GobBlessAmerica comes from. Want proof, just walk along the streets there … actually, you see more of them at parking lot, most of them drive.
BTW, Nice stairs.

Id like to know what this so called “invivble material” is?

No light refraction, no sign of edges…. it must be air…

also im american and im only 176 pounds…

Ok so I’m sorry but how is it that every time someone sees a picture that seems amazing, they claim its fake and photo shopped?!?!? Like, seriously, just because people have the ability to photo shop things doesn’t mean they do to EVERY SINGLE PICTURE!!! Stop being pessimistic and just enjoy the pictures!

It is probably made out of the same material that Wonder Woman’s invisible airplane was made of. I always wondered why she herself wasn’t included in the plane’s invisibility when she was inside… everything else inside was.

Not only would I hate to go down those stairs at night, I’d hate to run into them. Imagine horsing around and finding your face hitting the side of one of those steps.
Or backing into it and the corner of the step gets you in the back of the head. Ouch.

Average American 250lb? Are you only counting the men? I’m American, from the south, and I weigh 90 pounds. You non-Americans are just jealous of all the money in our pockets. That Internet you’re using stolen? Oh yeah and learn proper grammar before you go and embarrass yourselves. You lot might also want to check your facts. One more thing, you can’t judge on weight because you don’t know the height; a better thing to look up would be the average BMI as that would reflect how much actual fat the average American has. Oh by the way, I’m sure those things can support like 400 pounds at least otherwise they’d have a bunch of lawsuits. Oh and before I forget, I don’t know about y’alls countries but in America we actually teach our children to not stereotype. Don’t bother replying to this, I will most likely never see this page again and have satisfied my need to rant at the people who choose to butcher the English language.

Ohhhhh, I can just see the American Lawyers salivating over this design. Can you say LAWSUITS. Don’t think this would work in the USA, too many code violations, as we have become a Nanny State

I, being American, am saddened by the people in my country who are insecure enough to care that people from other countries think we’re fat on average.

Which we most definitely are.

Cheers

I would love it if people could just comment on what this page is about- the stairs.
Yeah, so the guy made a comment about overweight Americans. Americans make comments about overweight Americans.
Just talk about how pretty the stairs are and stop being anal about other people’s opinions.

Nice stairs, also.

I am American. I am under-weight. I work with 7 people. We are all well built and not over-weight except for one person. He is 55 years old and has kidney trouble. He takes medications that causes weight gain. Before this he was slim and strong built. Both of my parents are not over weight.. I know the parents of 2 different people that work with me. Their parents are not over-weight. I know more people that are not over-weight than are. One person I work with weighs right at 250lbs,
but he is 6′6″ and all muscles. He has seemingly no body fat. And this is strictly the people I work with and their families alone? What about the rest of us? Shall we say majority wins? You say Americans are prejudice, yet you post comments like this? Yea.. If we are, we learned it from you all. Show us more so that we may learn more. C`mon.. Do it.. Show us how to be like you. Teach us with your mighty and wise ways of being a literal hypocrite. We are learning well from you and your kind. Please teach us your wisdom of hate. Show us. Do it!
