Dubai In what can only be described as a stretch beyond imagination, a UAE billionaire has carved his name on an island so massive that its spread over three kilometres with each letter more than half a kilometre long, reports PTI. The billionaire, who goes with the first name of Hamad, carved his name in capital letters on his Al Futaisi island near Abu Dhabi.
According to local reports, the gigantic name is even visible from space although it was not clear when and how the name was inscribed on the land.
Hamad recently bought the worlds most expensive car for $ 2.7 million ( 9 million dirhams). The completed project picture was uploaded on the billionaires Facebook site a few hours ago indicating that the project has very recently been completed.
The letters dont wash away as they form waterways to absorb the encroaching tide, the Emirates 24/ 7 report said. The UAE- based billionaire is a known philanthropist with focus on medical causes.
Hamad also owns an automobile museum in Abu Dhabi housing over 200 exotic cars. It was earlier reported that the he bought custom- made Bugatti LOr Blanc fitted with a porcelain caviar tray. Hamad has also built the worlds largest truck - Dodge Power Wagon - which is 64 times bigger than the original with a whole apartment inside in the middle of the desert. The museum also reportedly houses a custom- built globe- shaped motor home said to be one- millionth the size of the earth.
