lmao! Thats fantastic. Reminded me of those pics of a car that falls into the sea, and the crane comes to pull it out and falls in as well.

Laughed quite a bit at that post.

The site in question is for Infinity Tower (Wikipedia link), an 80 floor residential skyscraper being constructed as part of the Dubai Marina development. This incident took place a couple of months ago, if I recall correctly; no one was injured and none of the foundations were damaged.

Two months later the section of containing wall is yet to be rebuilt and the site is still a rather large swimming pool. Photos taken yesterday courtesy of Imre.

The Tower will have residential apartments, conference rooms, tennis courts, pools, a state of the art gymnasium, a nursery and a spa.

Well thats one down and six to go.

And a swimming pool!

Oh and some diggers like digger land...

Oh and 30 diving boards at each floor.... Or is that going too far?

How residential pleasing can you get?
