Getting this amount of water in one of the driest places on earth is a huge challenge. There are no rivers in the city and it hardly rain, but Dubai has lots of water in use and in display. How is this possible?

8am in Dubai, temperature can reach up to 100F and the city's most visible and amazing structure is the Burj Khalifa. Half a mile high(2,717ft), the tallest building on earth. Up to 35,00 people can live and work in this gigantic building. About 200,000 gallons of water for this building alone per day.

Few decades ago, all of these were desert, now turned to a sparkling and glittering city. The fastest growing desert city on the planet, Dubai. Building a city like this in one of the hottest and inhospitable places on earth seems impossible. So how did the engineers do it?

VolT0xic:I learnt some of them alerted the authority, but a car, bike or tricycle from the locals would have helped the situation. 7miles(12km) can't just imagine. |
mymadam:Amen o.... |
After covering 7miles, help finally came, courtesy of local youth who alerted the officials. Mr Majhi loads the body of his wife into an ambulance, which completes the rest of the journey to his house.

Dana Majhi was filmed with his wife over his shoulders wrapped in sheets and his heartbroken teenage daughter by his side as he headed towards his home.

Mr Majhi’s 42-year-old wife died from tuberculosis on Wednesday morning and he said that he requested a vehicle to transport the body home for the last rites. However, he claimed that there was no response, that hospital staff insisted that he move the body and that he couldn't afford a private ambulance. He told Indian Express: ‘I requested everyone, but no one listened. What option did I have other than carrying her?’ He added: 'Since I am a poor man and could not hire a private vehicle, I had no choice,' according to the BBC. source: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3758409/Poor-Indian-man-carries-dead-wife-shoulder-seven-miles-hospital-not-pay-taken-home.html cc: Lalasticlala
