Jacuzzis everywhere.

These guys will put a jacuzzi anywhere. Like, suspended from a bridge 187m above the ground. (prev)

This is the Swissest thing I've seen all day.

It'd be Swisser if it was full of cheese fondue.

Way more impressive than hot tub time machine.

That doesn't seem dangerous at all.

After that bizarrely disturbing episode of American Dad last week, I'm a bit put off by jacuzzis...

Yeah, I'm not volunteering to get more beer from the fridge; I'm clumsy enough at the best of times.

Is the jacuzzi on the front page of the site?
posted by ZeusHumms at 7:25 PM on October 3, 2011

yeah, that's the one. the now-missing page had construction photos. future metafilterians, the page will probably return eventually.

Gizmodo still has pictures of the jacuzzi suspended from a bridge.

I would be terrified in that thing. But that's exactly what I would want; a mixture of soothing relaxation and ultimate terror.

Nobody brave enough to cannonball ?

That's the scariest thing I have ever seen. I can't stop picturing a gust of wind sending that thing flopping around, people and water falling out of it like a pepper shaker.

Don't worry, they are perfectly safe. They have helmets!

Um, what language are these captions written in? Frenchlish? Does the Académie française know about this?

Gordion, I doubt the Swiss care about such foreign opinions.

I have a hard time imagining this is Swiss. I didn't see any cranes used.
