Worlds Only Bar INSIDE a Tree

A bar inside the trunk of a Baobab tree has tourists flocking from far and wide just to drink a cold brew in the amazing tavern. It was fashioned inside a massive 72 foot (22 meters) high tree in a garden in Limpopo, South Africa, for thirsty locals.

Grown in the grounds of Sunland Farm, the tree trunk is so wide it takes 40 adults with outstretched arms to encircle its 155 foot (48 meters) circumference. The trunk is hollow, but its walls are still up to 6.5 feet (2 meters) thick.

The tree has its own cellar, with natural ventilation to keep the beer cold.

Carbon-dating has determined the ancient tree to be about 6,000 years old. “This tree is likely to be older than the Giza Pyramids of Egypt.” said Heather van Heerden, owner of Sunland Farm.

“It is phenomenal to have such a magnificent tree in your back garden. It is possibly the biggest living thing on earth.” she adds.

Huh. The tree is naturally hollow.

Wow...that's...tasteless doesn't quite cover it now, does it?

I tend to abhor business speak, so I would probably say "Let me know."

No, it needed business-speak. Just one of those times. But I reworded it into a much longer sentence which more explicitly put more on their plate.

It is possibly the biggest living thing on earth

I thought that honour went to a mushroom? Or maybe that was about terrain covered.

Scroll to the bottom - you can vote yes or no to "Should atheists be barred from public office?"

After PZ's intervention, 'Yes' is only at 4%.

edit to fix....

Giant inflatable "sinking" Titanic for kids to play on....

Tommy, I think I'm going with "too soon", as a response.

I think I'd have the same reaction to a Vesuvius model.

So..... I'm the only one who found it hilariously funny, then?

Just checking.

Heh. Kids could pour Jello into the hollow spaces where "bodies" used to be....

I use "please advise" all the time and don't consider it all that passive agressive.

Tot-Tanic is indeed Taste-Less.

Sean, on, like, Daily Show, I'd find it hilarious (and possibly in a different mood), but presented without irony, nsm.

This is an awesomely beautiful car: Alfa Romeo Bertone BAT 11 is one amazing-looking car

As far as concept cars go, they don't get much more futuristic than this. The Alfa Romeo Bertone BAT 11 is a concept car that looks straight out of a scifi movie. But this is real, and it's actually going into production, albeit a really limited production. We're talking a run of 25 to 50 cars, each of them costing more than your house.

Drat.
