  • The fact not a single camera was pointed towards this million dollar plus aquarium is shocking in its own right.
  • @hebneh
    I'm very glad the injured man took some Lindt chocolate to make his experience a little less traumatic.
  • @_triff
    I’d love to see an interview with some of the fish that survived
  • @InTeCredo
    The fact that a high-end luxury hotel doesn't have the surveillance cameras in the lobby is incredible!
  • @F74ank
    Wanted to tell everyone I'm ok, I wasn't there when it happened, but still.
  • @fluesque
    The attention to detail and animation of Marin taking candy after surviving the largest free standing aquarium was perfect lol
  • @--Paws--
    They could make a terrarium to replace it instead, just plants and no animals. If any animal were to be included, if possible, are the "cleaning crew" like isopods or springtails, or even certain beetles.

    This happened in Japan back in 2011, it was caused by an 8.2 earthquake which destroyed a 250000 gallon aquarium at a shopping mall, damaging many of the nearby stores.

    "Burried under all sorts of delicious debris" Man you know how to frame a disaster and make it a little less grim and a bit of fun.
  • @Etx-z9
    Imagine just chilling on your night shift and then 30 seconds later getting thrown thru a wall lol.

    Bro made a video called "Why The World's Biggest Aquarium Broke" only to say 10:48 into it that actually we don't know why
  • @ADRIAAN1007
    How they joined the acrylic panels seamlessly and without a noticeable join is super simple. They use a solvent glue it melts the surface of both pieces allowing the polymer chains to interact and create new bonds the solvent then evaporates. Because the polymer chains were allowed to form bonds and no solvent remains after where the material joint was made the joint area is indistinguishable on a molecular level. Any material that squeezes out can be sanded and polished smooth this is also a very common technique in building plastic scale models where a solvent (Acetone) is used to join the model pieces made from polystyrene.

    At first, I was confused with how many of your videos I had recommended to me, out of nowhere. With the level of quality you deliver with every video, I have to say it's no surprise. Rapidly becoming some of my favourite content on YouTube.
  • @jakehix8132
    me: has a camera pointed at a diy squirrel feeder them: no camera for a world record setting attractions worth millions
  • @BattlefieldNPC
    11:30 peta probably shouldnt have been the one to speak up, with all the animal killing it does 😅
  • @Be727z
    NGL the whole animal welfare part of this all is kinda ridiculous to me. Peta never fails to make me roll my eyes... As a long-time fish owner, and someone who's very interested in tanks... Fish breeding, fish keeping, etcetc is HUGE! A lot of people are into it and these fish tend to live really good lives. What we should be against is the overcrowding of tanks - countless times have I seen competitive stingrays kept in elaborate tanks when they're solitary animals that need the ocean's current to feel safe... For tropical fish, they can lead healthy and happy lives in tanks. Even if it's a smaller tank or something - as long as they have a little over the necessary space per fish they'll be fine. Make sure they're compatible species and kept fed - they'll live good lives. You can't just shut down the entire fish breeding business just because - nor can you release these fish without raising major ecological concerns and effectively killing them since they are dependent on humans. Sure, to most people they're decorations in a tank - but if they're kept healthy what's the problem? They're conscious, yes, but it's not like these fish yearn for the ocean.. They aren't glass pacing, they aren't bored out of their minds, they look good to me.

    "He lands in the chocolate shop next door, buried under all sorts of delicious debris." LOL 🤣🤣🤣
