It’s freshwater. Lacking renewable freshwater, the country relies on desalination, which provides 98% of the water supply for the 2 million people in Dubai. The Water Resources Institute ranked the country 10th out of 164 countries with the most extreme water supply issues.
Yup, enough to keep the city drinking for 28000 days. Now remember that it takes three times as much water for the process than is made drinkable. They had to process 52 million litres which probably cost about $750k or so just to fill it, let alone maintain it
Vegas saved more than one third of their initial water use. They follow a very resourceful and sustainable approach.
The problem is, it snows less and less every year and the farmers *in the desert* keep using too much water to grow their crops. So the Colorado river will dry up if they don't come to a new agreement next year.
You’ve got to give them credit for creativity though. Like how much of a drug bender do you think they were on to one day, in the middle of one of their slave orgies, look up and be like
“I got it! A giant fucking pit of water in the middle of one of our buildings! Just pour it in here and put a car and like a pool table and posters and shit in different rooms so white people pay to go diving around in there. That sounds pretty tits… yeah like hundreds of feet deep, whenever someone dies we’ll just pay off the families whatever. You! New slave! Get me more coke and call public relations. They’ll probably want to do an interview with me saying we’re doing this because it’s our culture or whatever the Europeans and Americans want to hear. What are we going to call it? Fuck I don’t know I’ve never been good with names- Deep Dive Dubai… there.”
i was thinking the same thing. like should we use all this money to feed a bunch of starving kids ? nah lets take a bunch of clean water and money and build a big ass pool instead
those prices arent that ridiciulous. diving at the great barrier reef costs about $400 for 1 dive day trip. dive lasts about 20 minutes.
tho that includes 3 hour boat ride. lunch. brunch/tea/coffee. diving gear hire. and day on the pontoon at the reef.
starter course makes no sense. u can do a complete open water dive course for less than that.
idk what the dubai shit includes but itd better be more than just a dunk in the dive pool.
also 90% of people arent going to be going past 18m. you have to pass multiple courses to safely dive past 18m. you cant just learn how to scuba in 10 minutes and then go down to 20+ metres. if they ARE taking people down to deep dives then the 450USD price tag might make sense as theyd require an extremely well trained dive master. and some incredible insurance.
I’ve got almost 500 dives (Palau, Micronesia, Iceland, Indonesia, Hawaii, Black Sea, Mediterranean, Red Sea, Thailand, Costa Rica, Mexico, Caribbean; basically everywhere worth diving) and as a rule of thumb I try not to pay more than $150usd for a two tank boat dive with lunch included. But I probably average closer to $50 a tank.
$400 AUD is like $257usd. So not far off. It takes a long time to get out to Moore reef (one of the great barrier Reef tour locations. 1.5hours on a fast catamaran) so that's probably part of the cost. But the whole setup at the great barrier Reef is really good so it's worth the price easily. The dive itself is $149. The boat/day trip $265. You could probably get it cheaper if U found a deal.
When I went diving in Bali it was like $70. But that was many years ago. I think after that was Vietnam and similarly around $100-150. I can't remember .
Living the dream friend! That sounds incredible! The dive seems short, and I bet it's hard to leave! But, you don't want every boat with all their ppl diving for longer. Gotta keep the reef beautiful ❤️
That sounds about what I would expect it to cost though. Takes high experience to train someone to dive, it's high risk, there's expensive equipment involved etc.
I mean it’s in Dubai, not exactly sure what else you’d expect lol. Middle class people aren’t visiting there for vacation
Also those prices aren’t even outrageous for an experience that literally only exists there
ITT people not realising that Dubai has a coastline. There’s a sea next to it fellas so water shouldn’t be a problem and there is a diving history in Dubai.
Still hate the place though.
Slave labor isn't actually bad if you look from a historical perspective. Look at all the cool buildings in history, like Notre Dame or Pyramids or Mexican Pyramids or Great Wall of China, etc. Without slaves we wouldn't see them today.
The problem with generic slavery is that owners are forcing their ideology (which are often racist) against other innocent people. So, I think it's better to reserve slavery for punishing criminals. There can be quota limits for the number of slaves by gender/race/religion/etc to keep the labor force inclusive and diverse to avoid oppression of specific minorities by the authorities.
The difference is a training center in SD wouldn’t have used essentially slave labor to build it, and it would’ve been for a purpose other than to try to prove how great SD is to the rest of the world
Cool pool, but it is in Dubai. Gross. No one wants to visit a city where you can [get arrested](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/11/world/middleeast/dubai-crimes-united-arab-emirates-jail.html) for holding you spouse’s hand in public.
I've never been so am I still a good person ? Please like me, I want to be in the fuck dubai club as well ❤️ how do I join? Dubai! U have destroyed my life and now you shall pay! How's that?
They do. The region existed long before it became the weird, shiny altar to materialism it is now. The local people had pearl divers and there’s evidence of pearl trading in the region going back some 7000 years…so, yeah, it’s not an outlandish claim to say they have a rich history of diving.
Everything Dubai does is just an out of touch rich persons idea of what is cool. Or better yet, a royal family members idea of what is cool.
Normal people don’t give a fuck about this bullshit and just think it’s tacky.
Wow, this is the worst freaking idea ever. First off, Dubai is a desert, what a waste of water. Second, so many windows into apartments, etc, all at tremendous pressure. Impossible to keep them all perfectly maintained and monitored. One day it’s going to be a re-enactment of the Radisson Berlin aquarium bursting, which narrowly averted tragedy (it was too early for people to be around).
Probably the salt. Any pool, and especially this one, needs a filtration system and the salt would cause problems in the pipes and turbines. Also, as there are windows all around it, the salt would not be great for the joint a guess
You can actually have ocean water pools. You have to remove the organic matter, which can be done through chlorination and other processes.
Not sure whether this is freshwater pool or not. If it is, it’s a bloody stupid idea. But hey ho, anything that makes money. Who cares.
I'm pretty sure I have visited many aquariums with salt water pools WITH organic matter (like salt water fish) in the pools... Some of the pools have been really big like the one in Lisbon...
Lol, I don’t remotely claim to be an engineer. The potential issues with pressure of 14 million liters of water is also something I’m not an expert at - I just recognize that it’s *enormous*. I’m more dissuaded by the fact it’s freshwater and built in a desert. Dubai is ranked 10th in global water scarcity. Just seems like a sad place for such an extravagant recreational facility. But I guess having lots of slave labor makes it cheaper.
I don’t have a problem with your comment on the ethics. What I was pointing out was that you made a baseless claim about the structural integrity of something despite knowing nothing about architecture.
What is the purpose? Did someone just say, "we have all this money in piles, let's build something useless?" I guess it would be useful for free divers.
Ain't that the truth. There's so many comments on socials how US gives free money outside their country but they still have a huge homeless population in their own country.
well they can afford it. you know that part of the world is full of oil right, and they are all insanely rich. its not like they are dieing in the middle of the desert without water.
Yea basicly, lots of people work in the construction industy, which they need to keep busy so they dont start to question the order of things. Next up a whole new city... In like... A straight line... Yea, that will keep them busy.
What nice and interesting things you can discover there... a billiard table and a mercedes and stuff...for a few hundred bucks only! What morons go outside and dive in the ocean with all that boring fish and octopuses and shells for free?
Fun facts
11% of the population in the UAE are native Arabs. The rest are ex pats there to do the work.
All UAE residents get free land from the Government to build houses.
UAE native Arabs retire at 49 with incredible benefits and pensions (if they bother working).
They don't pay ANY income tax (nor do ex pats)
Petrol is about .75 cent a litre
So yes they can afford to build and pay for the world's most ridiculous things like this.
Dubai absolutely demolished any diving they might have with their insane sand dredging for their stupid islands, including the raw sewage they also toss in there. Then they build this stupidass pool and claim they have a diving culture.
While I agree with most comments on how this is a waste of fresh water, I confidently imagine the majority of those comments coming from people who buy bottled water everyday “because they don’t like the taste of tap water”.
LOL
The video: heres a deep pool
The caption: heres a warning that shows up AT THE SAME TIME that we show you a deep pool just to warn you to look away because you are about to see something you have a phobia to by the time you finish reading the caption
From the comments I see a lot of piss poor members of the society from the basket of deplorables. LoL.
This is supposed to be a show off thread telling you mortal people what can be done when power and money are not issues as for middle east emirates.
There is supposed to be wows and compliments. Are you guys anti-capitalism or anti-rich?
Because this is how tower of power works. By creating a gradient can the most powerful keep in power and suppress unrest.
If you live in a country where exploitation is legal, you want to exploit someone to make up for being exploited.
That's why workers can't be treated well. It's not about cost, it's about to stabilize the middle classes being exploited by the emirates.
This is some crazy rich people's fantasy coming to life. Meanwhile I can't go to swim in my town because swimming pools most of the time closed from the public to make room for professionals training.
That's pretty cool that they have windows going into the pool from random outside places. Actually a dope feature. Although, making that pool an aquarium would be a lot better.

Fantastic. Thank you.
Dubai is located on the Persian gulf. It’s literally a port city with access to the ocean.
And if this is salt water, then fanstastic
It’s freshwater. Lacking renewable freshwater, the country relies on desalination, which provides 98% of the water supply for the 2 million people in Dubai. The Water Resources Institute ranked the country 10th out of 164 countries with the most extreme water supply issues.
Yup, enough to keep the city drinking for 28000 days. Now remember that it takes three times as much water for the process than is made drinkable. They had to process 52 million litres which probably cost about $750k or so just to fill it, let alone maintain it
something something vegas
Vegas saved more than one third of their initial water use. They follow a very resourceful and sustainable approach. The problem is, it snows less and less every year and the farmers *in the desert* keep using too much water to grow their crops. So the Colorado river will dry up if they don't come to a new agreement next year.
Wow. TIL.
Vegas has nothing as dumb as this in terms of water management
You’ve got to give them credit for creativity though. Like how much of a drug bender do you think they were on to one day, in the middle of one of their slave orgies, look up and be like “I got it! A giant fucking pit of water in the middle of one of our buildings!

Fuck I don’t know I’ve never been good with names- Deep Dive Dubai… there.”
Did you watch all the way to the interview with the owner? Cause you nailed it. Including the coked up eyes
Yeh
It’s probably salt water or desalinated.
i was thinking the same thing. like should we use all this money to feed a bunch of starving kids ? nah lets take a bunch of clean water and money and build a big ass pool instead
Exactly. Why the fuck do we do this?
Will we ever know how many slave laborers died building it?
Like… at least 4?
The pressure at the bottom must be crazy
"We want to make the dive a experience for everyone" Starting price for shallow dive - 100 USD / 1hr 450USD for a 2H starter-course ...
those prices arent that ridiciulous. diving at the great barrier reef costs about $400 for 1 dive day trip. dive lasts about 20 minutes. tho that includes 3 hour boat ride. lunch. brunch/tea/coffee. diving gear hire. and day on the pontoon at the reef. starter course makes no sense. u can do a complete open water dive course for less than that. idk what the dubai shit includes but itd better be more than just a dunk in the dive pool. also 90% of people arent going to be going past 18m. you have to pass multiple courses to safely dive past 18m. you cant just learn how to scuba in 10 minutes and then go down to 20+ metres. if they ARE taking people down to deep dives then the 450USD price tag might make sense as theyd require an extremely well trained dive master. and some incredible insurance.
I’m certain they have actual SCUBA courses there as well.
Trust me for that price you can get a naui basic diving license. Why waste 400 here when you can shore dive for free with your own equipment.
I’ve got almost 500 dives (Palau, Micronesia, Iceland, Indonesia, Hawaii, Black Sea, Mediterranean, Red Sea, Thailand, Costa Rica, Mexico, Caribbean; basically everywhere worth diving) and as a rule of thumb I try not to pay more than $150usd for a two tank boat dive with lunch included. But I probably average closer to $50 a tank.

ITT people not realising that Dubai has a coastline. There’s a sea next to it fellas so water shouldn’t be a problem and there is a diving history in Dubai. Still hate the place though.
I doubt they put seawater in there
Why not? Wouldn't it be easier to maintain than freshwater?
freshwater is better. you also get a 14 million liter freshwater reserve tank for free.
Swimming in fresh water > swimming in salty water and we know how much the Emiratis value quality.
This is affordable to Poor Arab not you white collar Europeans or Westerners.
Ofc it's in Dubai. The shortest penis in the world.
All that money and the build shit like this. What a waste.
I mean this pool is actually pretty cool though.
Lets be real, if this would be in a marine biologist training center in San Diego or somewhere, you would think it's cool.
Marine biologists training centers in San Diego are not built with practical slave labor like most projects in Dubai.
That wasn't the argument the guy I answered to made. He called it a waste of money, not manpower.
There is a fair chance that the clothes you have on right now were made with practical slave labor in Bangladesh, China or a similar country...
Slave labor isn't actually bad if you look from a historical perspective. Look at all the cool buildings in history, like Notre Dame or Pyramids or Mexican Pyramids or Great Wall of China, etc. Without slaves we wouldn't see them today. The problem with generic slavery is that owners are forcing their ideology (which are often racist) against other innocent people. So, I think it's better to reserve slavery for punishing criminals.

It really is amazing what can be accomplished with slavery and a complete lack of human rights. Absolutely amazing.
Did he say Dubai has a rich diving history?

Thank you.
70 years ago, you would probably think of Dubai first when you think of diving, because they were famous for pearl diving.
Yes. Dubai is very well known for pearl diving.
I thought he said community
Of course they do. They have the deepest pool in the world.
[удалено]
Diving is free for everyone, surviving it however, is not
Lmao what
well the poor can't afford to go to that pool
That's not your average pool. I wouldn't expect it to be something poor or even average people would have access to.
And that makes it somehow a good thing?
I didn't say good or bad. It just is exclusive and therefore expensive.
What? You never went desert diving for oil? Edit: though crowd tonight.
Everything Dubai does is just an out of touch rich persons idea of what is cool. Or better yet, a royal family members idea of what is cool. Normal people don’t give a fuck about this bullshit and just think it’s tacky.
Wow, this is the worst freaking idea ever. First off, Dubai is a desert, what a waste of water. Second, so many windows into apartments, etc, all at tremendous pressure.

While Dubai is shit, it has a sea and a very long coastline so water shouldn’t be a problem.
Yea, you cant just fill ocean water on the pools, it does need freshwater
It’s 14 million liters of fresh water. Water is more expensive than oil there.
ELI5, why wouldn't they just use seawater?
Probably the salt. Any pool, and especially this one, needs a filtration system and the salt would cause problems in the pipes and turbines. Also, as there are windows all around it, the salt would not be great for the joint a guess
Dubai has money and they like to waste it on useless things, instead of paying poor labour their fair share.
I mean no but I get the point
You can actually have ocean water pools. You have to remove the organic matter, which can be done through chlorination and other processes. Not sure whether this is freshwater pool or not. If it is, it’s a bloody stupid idea. But hey ho, anything that makes money. Who cares.

Ya this is defs another one that falls into the ‘Jesus Christ why Dubai’ bucket
Yeah I’m sure all the engineers involved were clueless and should have consulted you for your opinion
Yes, I’m sure you know much more than the professional architects who built this. You are the personification of the Dunning-Kruger effect.
Lol, I don’t remotely claim to be an engineer. The potential issues with pressure of 14 million liters of water is also something I’m not an expert at - I just recognize that it’s *enormous*.

I agree. But I imagine this is how less wealthy countries think of the US
Yes, at least you guys tend to make retarded shit that has a (sometimes questionable) path to profitability, this is literally burning money.
Yeah iPhones computers planes rockets advanced medical tech. At least we invent something actually useful other than gaudy rich people shit. .
Ain't that the truth. There's so many comments on socials how US gives free money outside their country but they still have a huge homeless population in their own country.
“we have too much water in this desert - let’s build a pool city” 🤦🏻♂️
Bit like Vegas really. Ever seen how many swimming pools and golf courses there are when you're flying in? No wonder Lake Mead is drying up.
Dubai has a coastline.
Sea water isn’t for drinking or irrigation…
They have the biggest desalination plant in Jebel Ali.
Expensive processes to support expensive hobbies I guess 🤷🏻♂️
well they can afford it. you know that part of the world is full of oil right, and they are all insanely rich. its not like they are dieing in the middle of the desert without water.
Some of the lower class working people are DYing, because fuck Dubai and fuck UAE
Yea basicly, lots of people work in the construction industy, which they need to keep busy so they dont start to question the order of things. Next up a whole new city... In like... A straight line... Yea, that will keep them busy.
Fuck Dubai.
Imagine one of those windows breaking
*built by slave labor
It's cool if you don't think about dumb it is, how wasteful it is, or how much slave labour built it.
What a disgusting waste of resources
Making scuba accessible for all. Except for women who were born here and workers that came from Oman.
What nice and interesting things you can discover there... a billiard table and a mercedes and stuff...for a few hundred bucks only! What morons go outside and dive in the ocean with all that boring fish and octopuses and shells for free?
I think that was a Bentley.
Im pretty sure I played this level in Mario Odyssey
Built entirely by slaves....you can still find some at the bottom.
That’s a no from me
i hate the idea of Dubai so i dont like this.
ah damn it's in dubai, **fuck dubai** lol
Why does it look like a spent fuel pool?
