History of Dubai in 50 Seconds

Have you ever wondered how Dubai went from a small fishing village to a mega-city that's known for having the world's tallest building? Well, we've got the answer for you in this video! Dubai's location at the Persian Gulf made it a key trading hub, and Sheikh Rashid was the visionary leader who started turning it into an international city after his trip to London in 1959. Fast forward to 1966, and oil was discovered, which helped fuel Dubai's urban development. Sheikh Mohammed, Sheikh Rashid's son, took it to the next level and built the biggest and tallest structures, like Dubai International Airport, Dubai Financial Center, and the Burj Khalifa. Check out this video to learn more about Dubai's amazing transformation!

I lived there for 10 years, it is truly one of the worst places on earth. The entire place is built by slaves who are all treated about the same as Hitler treated prisoners of war.

Maybe we are developing too much and it may have adverse effects on humans.
When they live on 110 or 115th floor, it may scare them when they look through the mirrors and there may be windblasts that entirely destruct these man made super constructions
