rothers2901 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 The Dubai ski resort, the scale and size just amazes me, notice the size of the palm trees, not to say it's about 130 degree in the shade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I saw a documentary all about that slope. Apparently the insulation is that impressive, if they were to turn off the refrigeration it would take 4 days to start melting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dblock Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 There is a program on discovery on how they made it. I think it was extreme engineering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I saw a documentary all about that slope. Apparently the insulation is that impressive, if they were to turn off the refrigeration it would take 4 days to start melting I was going to say that I'd read something similar when we were out there. It doesnt actually consume as much energy as you might expect as its so well insulated. Quite a sight though isnt it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taras Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 And knowing Dubai, the word "efficiency" isn't even in the language. Just big! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
