HOUSTON, Texas -- Video of a swim in a new Houston pool is not for the faint of heart.

The roof pool is one of two pools in the building.

Sister station KTRK-TV reports the building is downtown Houston's tallest residential high-rise, and it's within walking distance from some of the city's top restaurants, bars and theater district.
