What do you do if you are Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Ahyan, a super-rich Arab sheikh who is the president of the oil-rich United Arab Emirates? You are rich. You are bored. You own your own island. Are you getting any ideas?
Well, mister man’s idea was to create the world’s largest self-referential graffiti tag. The letters were dug out of the sand by a crew who worked for weeks to create them. They are half a mile high and two miles long. As you can see in the image below, the letters actually form waterways.
And here’s the fun part. This can actually be seen from space.
According to Forbes, Hamad owns more than 200 cars, including seven Mercedes 500 SELs painted in the colors of the rainbow. Wish I had thought of that one.
So! What would you do, if you had crazy wealth and too much time on your hands?
