Ever wondered what it would be like to fly? I bet you have, even if it was when you were a child. Thanks to fictional characters such as Superman, everyone at one point in their life has imagined what it would be like to fly. This article is not going to tell you what you can do to fly, but we are going to list some buildings from around the world with glass floors which you can walk over; maybe the closest you'll ever come.

Willis Tower, Chicago - Formerly known as the Sears Tower, this amazing structure is not only a prominent feature in the skyline of Chicago, but can also boast the worlds highest glass floor ( a whole 1,353 feet from the floor), a title it has been able to hold since 2009 when it was taken from the CN tower. The building did hold the title of tallest building in the world up until 1998 when it was surpassed by the Petronas Twin Towers.
