The view from this gravity-defying hotel will be terrifyingly beautiful

Architects are taking “edgy” design to new heights with a breathtaking new hotel that juts off the side of a cliff in Norway.

The gravity-defying structure — compete with a see-through pool that hangs over the face of a 1,982-foot rock, in the moody south-western region — was proposed by a team of Turkish designers, according to CNN.

The boutique lodging features a viewing platform and entrance with three floors of rooms built into the Preikestolen cliff, according to design renderings provided by the station. Each floor has balconies dangling over the side, complete with stunning views of the Lysefjorden fjord below.

The lowest level features a long and skinny swimming pool, held up by suspension cords — that juts out from the cliff like a death-defying diving board.

A rustic viewing deck — torture for anyone with a fear of heights —would be built around it, according to the renderings.

The project, which has not yet been approved, was dreamed up by the Istanbul-based architectural design firm Hayri.

Dubbed the “Cliff Concept Boutique Hotel” in a rendering, the hotel has no official name.

Last month, a team of architects revealed plans for an infinity pool with 360-degree views on the roof of a skyscraper in London.

A Minnesota congressional candidate hoping to unseat Ilhan Omar with promises of being tough on crime faces felony shoplifting charges, according to a report.

Danielle Stella, a 31-year-old supporter of President Trump, was arrested twice this year in the thefts of 279 items worth more than $2,300 from a Target and $40 worth of goods from a grocery store, The Guardian reported.

“I am not guilty of these crimes. In this country I am innocent until proven guilty and that is the law,” the special-education teacher told the news outlet.

“If I was guilty of crimes, I would never run for public office, putting myself in the public eye under a microscope to be attacked by all political sides,” added Stella, who this week described Minneapolis as “the crime capital of our country.”

Stella told police that she “remembers arriving at Target to purchase items but nothing else” due to post-traumatic stress disorder, and that she “normally she goes to Target with someone because of anxiety around people,” according to a criminal complaint cited by The Guardian.
