Shark Tank Explodes In Shopping Mall

Someone did something wrong because a 30 ton shark tank in a mall in Shanghai broke last week, injuring 15 people and flooding the mall.

  3. Yeah I know, I'm sorry anyone got hurt, but I just kept thinking about the sharks. Were they ok?

  4. I actually don't think it's weird to have a tank like that in a mall, but obviously someone screwed up.

  6. 'Tofu construction' is what it's called in China. Shoddy workmanship, substandard materials, corrupt inspectors, the works.

    Nutty's right. China is notorious for being so corrupt that you can literally pay anyone off to get around any laws. You pay to play.

  10. God, the poor sharkies. I can't stand seeing large animals in cages. Or birds - it drives me nuts.

  12. Yeah something tells me those sharks didn't make it. I think it was the shot of the guy taking a picture of the flailing, dying shark on the ground that clued me in.

    I always think about that happening though. When I lived in Chattanooga, Tennessee one exhibit in the aquarium is this three story tall fish tank and you walk down a ramp which takes you from the top of the tank to the bottom. I used to always imagine it bursting and the room just filling up with fish and people. Scary though.

  13. I just heard that all the sharks and the turtles died. Why in the world would the turtles die? I guess there was a lot of damage from the broken, flying glass. Poor things.

  15. The headline on DM made it sound like a shark came out of the ocean and dive-bombed a mall. Strange.

    Poor animals, and I bet the people were terrified, too. Shame.

  16. Well, I'll be the first to ask then: Are the people okay? Can you imagine being any one of those people right in front of that 30 ton tank when all that water burst out??? It looked like that one group has a split second notice before it happened -- I wonder, was there a huge cracking sound or something?

    1. 15 people were injured by flying shards of broken glass and suffered deep cuts and bruises. Per UKDaily.

  21. Oh how horrible for man and animals alike. Of course there will be no ramifications for the people responsible. Tragic!
