teenagah: ‘The collapse of a shark tank at The Scientific Center in Kuwait.’ i’ve reblogged this so many times There are no sharks swimming at the mall. At least not at the Kuwait Scientific Center. A photo circulated around the internet this week showing two sharks swimming in the lobby of a mall. The story, which circulated around with the photo, was that the shark tank collapsed at the Kuwait Scientific Center, and that the sharks were swimming around at the bottom of the escalators waiting for an unsuspecting visitor to make the trip down to shark infested mall waters.

King told Grind TV: “The trick to making good images is to make the viewer question its reality because it looks real and natural.” According to Now Public, this isn’t the first time the photo has created buzz on the internet.
