[Gilberto P M]

[erbse]

Just in front of the sea?

Don't you agree?

 

[ZZ-II]

not all people like to swim in the sea ^^

 

[infernal]

What's the point of such a huge pool?

 

[xlchris]

^To have the biggest in the world?

You could almost get lost there

 

[channel]

total waste, the ocean next to it is better, bigger and is natural. How much resources, carbon foot print, is needed to maintain and heat that pool in winter? hno:

i wish ahmads would learn how to make a thread and know not to copy one that already exist.

I visualize world-class competition-style endurance swimming tournaments.

But I beg to ask though:

Is that saltwater/seawater or freshwater in that huge pool I see?

 

[ausie]

if thats the one at like cairnes or something then its because
1 its a five star hotel
2 the ocean is way to dangerous to swim at the beachs there (i have experience) due to crocs and stinger which are massively abundent up north
3 at some beaches its actually illegal to swim at the beach
4 in case of an oil spill which will shut the beach for months(one happened in the last 48 hours)

 

[Dezz]

And...the current is to strong and the water to icy!

 

[ReiAyanami]

This is the biggest FAIL in the history of FAIL:cheers:

 

[Amrafel]

I think there are a cold streams in the coast of Chile...so the swimming in the ocean is impossible
