 An aquarium in Berlin that was home to around 1500 exotic fish burst early on Friday, December 16, prompting around 100 emergency responders to rush to the scene at an inner-city leisure complex, emergency services said. Eyewitness videos depicting the incident and its aftermath have been shared around social networks. In addition to the unbelievable maritime damage, two people were injured by glass splinters, Berlin police said on Twitter. It was the world's largest freestanding cylindrical aquarium at 14 meters, 46 feet in height, according to the website of the Dom Aquarium Complex, which houses a radicent hotel, a museum, shops and restaurants. Emergency services shot a major road next to the complex that leads from Alexandraplatz towards the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin due to the large volume of water that had flooded out of the building. The road as well as the sidewalks outside of the complex were littered with debris. Buses were sent to complex to provide shelter for hotel guests, leaving the building, police said on Twitter, as outside temperatures in Berlin stood around minus 7 degrees Celsius.
