World's largest policeman's cap
Come on now, this is just plain silly...
http://gulfnews.com/news/gulf/uae/ge...-cap-1.1325711
"Dubai Police have revealed plans to build what is expected to enter the Guinness World Records as the largest policeman’s cap, which will also house the new Dubai Police Museum building, a senior police official said."
I have no words.

One of the responses:
" Apologies if this doesn't sit well with the architect or the conceptualizing team. But such architecture is archaic by the time it's inaugurated... why not create an abstract sculpture or architecture that might reflect the essence of the great important job Police officers do... something that stands the test of time and is more inspiring and sublime; more sophisticated. After all, Dubai Police is sophisticated and the emirate is one of the most technologically advanced countries when it comes to police work."
