  • These incredible photos show the San Alfonso del Mar resort in Chile — home to the second largest swimming pool in the world. The outdoor pool is located halfway up the country’s Pacific Coast in the city of Algarrobo and is filled with a staggering 66 million gallons of crystal clear seawater. Spanning an area of 20 acres — and equivalent in size to 6,000 average size home swimming pools — the San Alfonso pool, designed by water innovation company Crystal Lagoons, was until recently the Guinness World Record for the world’s largest swimming pool. But in December 2015 a sister project by Crystal Lagoons in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt, took over the title with the completion of a 30 acre pool, the first phase of plans for a total of 12 lagoons that will span 250 acres and the centerpiece of the USD $5.5 billion, 1,8500-acre Citystars project with residential apartments, hotels and shopping. Still, Sharm el Sheikh’s older sister pool in Chile, at 3,323ft long with a maximum depth of 11.5ft, is still quite the sight to behold and will turn 11-years-old next month, after opening back in December 2006. The San Alfonso pool, situated right next to the Pacific Ocean, uses a computer-controlled filtration system to suck water from the sea at one end and pump it back out at the other. The sun warms the pool to 26 degrees Celsius (79 degrees Fahrenheit) — nine degrees Celsius (48 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than the ocean. And being the size it is, swimming it not the only thing on the agenda — the gigantic size makes it possible to sail boats and carry out all kinds of fun water sports activities. 14 Nov 2017 Pictured: The San Alfonso del Mar resort in Algarrobo, Chile — home to the second largest swimming pool in the world.

  • EXCLUSIVE: You ORCA look behind you, this incredible photo shows a diver seemingly just yards from a feeding killer whale. Norwegian teacher Svein Aasjord, 44, his wife, and three boys, live in a fjord called Kaldfjord, in northern Norway close to the city of Tromsø - 217 miles north of the Arctic Circle. As well as living in one of the stunning coastal inlets Norway is famous for, the Aasjord family also live in one which is a popular hunting channel for whales feeding on herring. Each winter millions and millions of herring feed along the Norwegian coast in rich cold-water currents. Heading north to meet them is one the largest gatherings of orca and humpback whales on earth ready to feast on the bounty. In open water the whales stand little chance against the fast-moving shoals of herring, but by herding the tiny fish into fjords the whales create hundreds of ‘bait balls’ trapping the fish at the surface before going in for the kill. Sometimes the Aasjord family’s local Kaldfjord can be literally full of herring and large numbers of orca and humpbacks hunting them. The action has been so close to the house that Svein has been able to take photographs from inside his own property. These stunning photographs are just some Svein has been able to take over the years, including some breath-taking shots of his friends SWIMMING with the hunting orcas. Svein said: “All the people that have seen that picture tell me ‘he’s going to die in the next moment’. “I shouted to my friend ‘look over here’, because I wanted him to be looking at me when one of the big males was behind him. The whale of course was not up for the diver at all, he was just up for air. “The diver is a friend of mine, he and his girlfriend are experienced divers, they are not professional divers but they dive all the time. “We shut off the engine, as I am very strict when it comes to not disturbing the whales because they are feeding and I don’t want to interfere with their live

  • With a continued looming threat of a nuclear attack from North Korea, demand for underground bunkers has been on the rise. But while even the cheapest option would set a family of two back around $25,000, The Oppidum — the world’s largest private apocalypse shelter located in a quiet valley of the Czech Republic — is right at the other end of the scale, and is how the 1 per cent might live out a doomsday scenario. This gargantuan sprawling complex set over 323,000 square-foot is a mansion, complete with the largest residential underground bunker in the world. The future owner of this property, which is located on a former military base, would be able to ride out a nuclear attack in style, with the two-tier underground quarters featuring a swimming pool and spa, wine cellar, garden with simulated natural light, cinema, library, conference room, medical and surgical facilities, and a command center with communications to the outside world. Construction began way back in 1984 over a 10 year period, but now the underground levels are in a newly-constructed shell-and-core state, with the option of customization available to prospective buyers. Czech entrepreneur Jakub Zamrazil is the man behind The Oppidum and says he is currently in negotiations with “several parties” amid a time of rising fears of a nuclear war. Mr Zamrazil says the price nor the buyer will ever be disclosed publicly — but clearly the financial cost of something on this scale would be astronomical. He came up with the name Oppidum, taken from the Latin “op-pedum” which is an “enclosed space” used to describe European fortresses as far back as the Iron Age. 11 Dec 2017 Pictured: The Oppidum — the world’s largest private apocalypse shelter located in a quiet valley of the Czech Republic — is how the 1 per cent might live out a doomsday scenario.
