3. It's an indoor ski resort in Dubai (a place where temperatures commonly

reach 120 in the summer). It's called "Ski Dubai" and it uses 3,500 barrels of oil per day just to maintain the temperature.

All that money, and that huge eyesore of a structure, just for a fake bunny slope that no skier worth his wax-rag would be seen at?
