Kuwait City Skyscraper Fire

Yesterday a skyscraper in Kuwait City caught on fire at around 3PM. Judging by the video it seems the short building to the right of the skyscraper caught fire first and that contributed to the skyscraper catching fire. [YouTube]

Thanks mabkw!

Update: Below is a picture taken from q8blackmarket.com showing the small building on fire.

    That does looks serious. I hope no one got hurt. Good thing it’s a holiday since it seems to be an office building.

    Why do I smell insurance fraud ? Because of a real estate market crash ?

    that ‘skyscraper’ should be burnt down, its horrendous.

  4. I’ve heard that there were some injuries even to fire fighters, but I’m glad there were no fatalities reported. Thanks for the video.

    Yeah I drove past it at about 11 pm and the taller building still had flames whipping out of it…

    hey, something weird, the building in video and building in picture seems different since if its from different angle the building shape is different.

    I work in the building to the left))) bbk))) I hope that nothing happend to our building.

    I definitely saw a plane hit the first building…..really…I did…..or a missile….or a CNN camera…..or an apple. Anyway it was definitely Al Qaeda and this demands that we use those x ray machines at airports in Kuwait and take off our shoes when travelling…..and NO ONE from yemen should be allowed to travel anywhere and all underwear should be checked thoroughly.
    Rant….rant…..

    Saw the whole drama unfold, we stayed till the end, the building to the left (Al Khalifa Tower) still had flames coming out of it , i think BBK was ok, anyway have sent you the photos.
    Was amazing to watch the KFSD attemp to rescue a person stuck on the roof, with flames all around him. For a moment all thought he would jump….
