60 storey hotel on fire in Dubai


Recommended Posts

Until theres an onvestigation finding out what went wrong and what was at fault we wont know. Its good that nobody died, but it might show the buildings construction is dangerous. That would certainly eb a cause for concern for the buildings owners and people who are expected to use it in future if its a reflection of general building standards. The speed of the fires spread is worrying and your dismissal of it is bizarre.

 

It did look very odd when you consider steel and concrete don't normally burn and sprinkler systems and bursting water tanks usually make light work of a chip pan fire. I suppose in that part of the world you can't rule out leakage from underground gas pockets. There was certainly more alight than someone's curtains.
