Terror as mall shark tank cracks
2010-02-25
SHOPPERS fled in terror today after a giant aquarium filled with 400 SHARKS and stingrays cracked and began gushing torrents of water.

Horrified holidaymakers were among those left fearing that they were about to be engulfed by 10MILLION gallons of water -- holding 33,000 sea creatures.

Dramatic video captured people fleeing the Dubai Mall as water poured on to the floor....
Two comments:
1. Is this mall owned by a Bond villain?
2. There's a direct-to-video exploitation film just waiting to be made. Instead of merely leaking, the tank gives way completely and hordes of mallrats are, like, totally engulfed in, like, a tidal wave of water and then, like, eaten by the sharks. Totally!

Maybe but it be really rad if the sharks had lasers on their heads. Just saying

#4  The Sun UK has a long story with pics and thoughts about how the local coppes ordered folks to delete all photos from their cell phones, or else.

#3  Given that much of Dubai's recent boom has been built with virtual slave labor and smoke and mirrors (link), I'm not surprised.

#2  Just round up the nearest group of Japanese tourists and tell them it's fresh seafood, served traditional Dubai-style in a waterfall. Add bottles of Asahi beer and it's problem solved.

#1  Dubai's on a roll lately...
Are they sure the Mossad didn't do this?
