Dubai Skyscraper Photos Freak Joe Rogan Out

It's one of the more fascinating things about people though that we have the ability to contemplate the possibilities, that we have the ability to look at this and go, oh, okay, wait, wait, wait, what are we doing here? Hold on. Right. Hold on, we're making a mistake here. Look what wheat's got us doing, look what rice has got us doing. God damn it. Look how much people there are in the city. There's so many people in the city. What do we got? We're going to feed all these people. Shit. Right. We didn't think of this. We just kept breeding. It's a big concern when people start developing into new areas, when people start expanding the technological or the rather societal sprawl, when you see these urban sprawls just slowly encroaching on new land and pushing out into areas where there was no houses before. That's always weird for me when I drive by a place like... Boulder, Colorado does a really good job of limiting the amount of construction that gets done there. Right. They're pretty fierce about it. They have been sort of lightening up a little. Things have been getting built and every now and then I'll drive by. Like if I'm in Colorado, I'm like, oh, that wasn't there before. Now it's there. Everybody thinks it's harmless. No big deal, just a new building. It used to be an open field. Who's that helping? It's not helping anyone. And then another building outside of that and another building out. And then you had the ability to look in time 50 years from now, you see this spread where this weird wart of humanity starts moving across the globe. This cool feature in Google maps where you can have... Or Google Earth where you can have time lapses from satellite photos like past six years. And for example, you look at Dubai 30 years ago, nothing. And you suddenly... Dubai is a crazy example. That's a crazy example. That place is so strange. It's like Las Vegas and steroids. Yeah, Las Vegas on steroids with its own islands. Man-made islands, the shape of the world, like all the different continents of the world have you seen that? Yeah. And it's not doing... Like some of it apparently they have to keep adjusting because the tide rises and... Apparently the... Actually... Is this the Google maps? I think... Oh, another one but... Is another one in Dubai? Oh my God, this is insane. This is insane. It's happening so fast. How many years is this spanning? 20? 20? Oh my God, that's amazing. So the... Actually, some of our engineers used to work for the dredger and they actually helped build the Palm Islands. And apparently the problem is that the water doesn't really move in the arms of the palms, so it kind of gets stinky and... Oh no. ...all the algae. So this prime real estate that just... Stinks. Oh no, really? Oh, that makes sense. Like the water in between it would get stale. Of course, that makes sense. Like this is bonkers. This video is bonkers. Here you see the... These are actual... Oh, there's the... Yeah. That's the thing. So all that water inside, yeah, it doesn't get recycled. It doesn't move around. No. How the fuck did... They had to do that to keep the... Like an ocean break, right? I suppose. To keep the water from smashing into it, like the outside rim. You can't just pump everything. So now what do they do with all the stinky water? You just accept it? Good question. That fucking world's tallest building is bananas. Right. That thing... I've seen pictures that people have taken from the top floor. It doesn't even look real. Like all you flat earthers, you need to go to Dubai. Get up there. You could literally see the curve. Yeah. And when you stand at its foot, because of its shape, it looks even taller. Can you see the curve from up there? See if go to... I don't think so. No, I don't think so. On an airplane, you can't see it either. You can kind of see it. That's true. Yeah, you got to kind of see it. Yeah. Yeah. You got to be way up. Right. Would you go on one of those Virgin's trips? They do a Virgin spaceship fly above the Earth and look down. Once there is good safety statistics. Right. Good for you. Fuck early adopting. Yeah. It's probably not good to be an early adopter in the space area. What kind of psychos would want to be on that first flight? Well, I suppose Richard would have to go on one of the first ones. Oh, if I was him, I would clone myself and put a fake me on that and see if that bitch blows up. I wouldn't trust it. Yeah. What is this, Jamie? Is this for... Oh my God. I'm getting vertigo just looking down. I am freaking out. I get like legit... This is all GoPro, so this is what flat Earthers use to show that the Earth is actually flat. It's the perspective shift. But just the height of that goddamn thing makes my palms sweat. I was there last year and there was somebody sticking her phone out of the slot. Yes. No. No. No. Oh, God. Damn people are crazy. Yes. Imagine she dropped it and it fell and just went right through someone's fucking head. Like literally like a missile. Boom. Your head would just explode. You might have to get hit in the head with a cell phone from a mile up. Motherfucker. That's good. Motherfucker. You were so crazy. I'm going to take a picture and write down. I don't know. Damn. It would take so long too. That puts the word burst mode to the... Yeah. There's a new perspective to that term. They should have like an alarm that goes off when someone drops something. Someone can quickly hit an alarm. And by the time it hits the bottom, the bottom part will hit. They can all back away from the building. These guys are on the tip top. No, shut the fuck up. Oh my God, they're hanging on. Are these Russians? Dude, look at my hands. This kid's with his dad. It looks like... His dad's crazy too. Great. You're both fucking nuts. Dude, my hands are sweating right now. I can't handle these. That dude that we've had on, James... With a K... Kingman? Kingman? The guy who does those... Is that it? Kingman, right? He does these videos from these fucking places. Kingston. Kingston, thank you. Sorry, James. He's American? I swung a lot of weed. No, he lives in England. Okay. And he takes these videos where he's like hanging on by one hand with a fucking selfie stick. Yes. Looking down, these giant skyscrapers. My hands sweat so hard. Just watching those. I can't imagine if I was actually doing that. What a terrible fucking instinct or a terrible thing that happens to people. When you see people hanging onto something, your hands sweat. So do your hands sweat when you're hanging on? Yeah, they're just not helping you. That's the worst thing that can happen is your hands get all slippery.
