JHolmesJr Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Staggering flames, almost entire 60 storeys burning furiously….they say there are no injuries (a miracle if so) And in tremendous show of bad taste (my opinion) they are going ahead with a fireworks display in 40 minutes. Wow. http://news.sky.com/story/1614858/huge-fire-in-dubai-hotel-ahead-of-nye-fireworks Edited December 31, 2015 by JHolmesJr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
