World’s Largest Hotel Aquarium Bursts Spilling 1,500 Fish

The world’s largest freestanding cylindrical aquarium exploded in the early hours of the Berlin morning, spilling about 1 million liters of salt water and 1,500 fish into the hotel lobby where it was located.

Images shared by tourists and emergency crews showed shards of the cylinder, which measured 16 meters (52 feet) tall, filling the entrance hall of the Radisson Collection hotel, located near Berlin’s main cathedral and the Alexanderplatz square in the eastern part of the German capital.
