AMAZING FACTS



You are welcome in amazing club......









1.Worlds Longest Train

People in Fort Worth Texas last Friday had an extremely long wait for one train as it went through intersections. Union Pacific says the train is 18,061 feet long just over three miles long.







2.Burj Dubai, World's Tallest Building, Now Open

The world's tallest building, rising up to 828 meters to touch the clouds, Burj Dubai, is now open for business!

Burj Dubai was opened today in a ceremony, celebrating the fourth anniversary of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum becoming Ruler of Dubai.

As Dubai struggles with the economic crisis, the 160-floor-skyscraper is seen as a window of opportunity to pick up things and attract more business.

Construction on Burj Dubai began back in 2004. It was developed by Emaar and constructed by Samsung Engineering & Construction.

The building will house 900 residences on floors 19 through 108. The observation deck is on Floor 124. Sky lobbies on Floors 43, 76 and 123 will have fitness facilities, swimming pools and Jacuzzis. It has a hotel designed by Giorgio Armani.




3.World's Tallest Man Meets World's Shortest Man

The world's tallest man Sultan Kosen (8 ft 1 in), and the shortest man in the world He Pingping (2 ft 5 in) met for the first time yesterday. I have to assume that they then became best friends and started hanging out all the time.
