Probably would swim in it. Wouldn’t want to live under it. Neighbors may have splash issues unless glass walls surround it.

Mr Kemsley also said there were major technical challenges with getting people into and out of the pool.
"Normally a simple ladder would suffice, but we didn't want stairs on the outside of the building or in the pool as it would spoil the view — and obviously you don't want 600,000 litres of water draining through the building either."
"The solution is based on the door of a submarine, coupled with a rotating spiral staircase which rises from the pool floor when someone wants to get in or out."
Submarines inspire solution to problem with world's first 360-degree rooftop infinity pool
Among the problems facing designers of the pool, which is expected to rest atop a 55-storey tower, is how to get swimmers in and out.
