The Millau bridge is as innovative and daring a project as Concorde was.❤😮

The Golden Gate Bridge was the marvel of its day, and a 100 years later this 12:51 is.

So they anchored the hotel at the bottom and put movable parts at the top so basically it's now just like a normal building during an earthquake and it would break from the bottom still 🤔

You will have so many bugs on your patio

30:00 So they created a hotel with floors underwater, and then they stuck aquariums over all the underwater windows instead. Isn't that just outright cheating your guests? Who would pay that much just to watch a small aquarium? They could have just put lighting in the quarry lake instead, and actually created a proper ecosystem with fish in it.

The difference is the aquariums are salt water and can have amazingly beautiful setups and fish in them. If the guests were just looking underwater in a lake they'd definitely want the aquarium instead

[@sandrsofias]

a couple minute prior to the one you linked literally explians why they did this. did you even watch the video?

One of the commentators, Corina, is poorly/shoddily lit. Don't you have quality control and reviewing before the release of material?
