Skyscraper in Shanghai lets visitors walk on glass walkway without handrails

On Thursday, the Jinmao Tower in Shanghai opened its glass skywalk to the public. Daredevil visitors can now walk or sit on the glass walkway for up to 30 minutes.
Here's the catch: there are no handrails to hold onto. Instead, you'll be harnessed to an overhead rail while you move around freely on the 60-metre long walkway.

I would do it, but only with American-made harnesses. You know someone's gonna die after that cheap Chinese shite breaks.

Good thing they have those bicycle helmets on.

I've spent a lot of time at those heights in a harness. Except under much sketchier circumstances. It's scary the first time. But once your mind knows that you are safe and have all three correct safety gear, it's no big deal. It eventually becomes fun, for some people much quicker than others.
You also don't have to balance. It's just a walkway. Kudos to the Chinese for having cajones

The harnesses would have to be way bigger in America

Posting on mobile, but they look fine on desktop too.
What's the issue?

I think I'd rather look at snake pictures than those guys working on the buildings. Palms sweating and heart racing just looking.
