A video emerged online showing a hotel in Dubai getting flooded, with the hallway of the hotel rooms getting flooded.
Water could be seen gushing out of every nook and cranny of the hallway, leaking down from the air vents as well.
Water was also seen flowing out of the ceiling lights.
Alarmed
A hotel guest was seen running away and retreating back into his hotel room to seek shelter from the “waterfall”.
Another hotel guest emerged from his room, seemingly trying to see what was going on, only to find the ceiling gushing with water.
He then stood looking around his surroundings trying to figure out the situation, before walking away looking visibily concerned.
Water pipe burst
The “waterfall” was apparently caused by the bursting of the water pipes inside the building.
It then resulted in the water building up and eventually overflowing from the maintenance systems and cascading through every outlet that it can find – ceilings, lights, etc.
