The mean buggers turned down my press request for me to come up and photograph the view from the top of The Shard, but at least I can see what I’m missing thanks to a video by mjf1408.
The video shows off a 360° tour of the viewing gallery on the 69th floor of The Shard and was shot on the morning of the official opening on July 5th 2012.
It’s not one for folks with vertigo, but the view sure looks incredible to me.
