What are some mind-blowing facts that sound unreal but are actually true?

 The Indian Connection

We all know this beautiful piece of art in Dubai and are awestruck about its structural engineering and construction. The Burj Khalifa was designed by an American and developed by the South Koreans.

But little do people know that its Air Conditioning was done by an Indian company known as Voltas! Wasn't expecting this, were you?

Voltas AC is privately owned by the Tata Conglomerate and not only does the longest man made structure use Indian ACs but so does the largest ship.

In 2014, Voltas was ranked 39th among India's most trusted brands according to the Brand Trust Report, a study conducted by Trust Research Advisor.

RMS Queen Mary 2

This beauty right here is the largest ocean liner ever built. Build by the French and owned by the British. Its starting price per berth is said to be a whooping 300,000 USD. Top notch materials and design has been incorporated in building the ship. State of the art accessories. This ship is cooled by none other than Voltas!

And not just Burj Khalifa and HMS Queen Mary II, but also Emirates Palace Hotel (Abu Dhabi), 9 out of 15 Common Wealth Games Stadiums, Emirates Mall, F1 Track of UAE, Hong Kong Airport and many such famous locations across the world.
