Europe's First Underwater Restaurant Promises to be Next Premise of Disaster Film
Europe will soon see its first underwater restaurant, according to the project's Norwegian architects. The planned concrete structure features a 36-foot wide panoramic window and is designed to become part of the marine environment. It's expected to be completed by early 2019, with construction work starting in February 2018, at the southernmost point of Norway's coastline. "One of the benefits of this building is how it links nature and land, and how you can come safe from the land and in a very dramatic way go down through this concrete tube to the nature at sea level, and experience what normally is not experienced," said Rune Grasdal, lead architect on the project.
Nope. No thank you. I’ll eat my meals above ground thank you very much. This is classic humans getting too cocky for their own good. Relative to the how long the earth has been around, it wasn’t too long ago we were struggling to eat rodents in caves. Look, we basically JUST figured out how to be the top of the food chain in our biome, people forget we are very much the BOTTOM of the food chain in the ocean. Even the air (water) kills us! As in, the very weakest, crippled, rejected, pathetic, degenerating fish will outlive the strongest of us in the ocean just because they know how to breath; that’s called being the bottom of the fucking food chain. So now, you want to get all fancy and make an underwater restaurant and show people how it feels to eat like a fish? That’s too fucking fancy to not be asking for disaster.
Also this restaurant will definitely serve seafood and that sounds like a TERRIBLE idea. You think some plexiglass is going to protect you? There is some prehistoric shit living in our oceans, and taunting them while you eat the 3rd cousin once removed of a fucking sea monster doesn’t seem like a wise move. Look, if I want to appreciate underwater flora and fauna while treating myself to a meal; then I’ll just pack a sandwich, and watch a bunch of manatees shit on each other at the aquarium.
I honestly don’t understand how this will be any different.
