An aquarium wall has broken in Shanghai in China. A film shows the 15-centimetre thick glass which broke in the accident. Sixteen people were hurt but nobody died. The accident also caused the collapse of a
cosmetics shop inside the shopping centre but the shop assistant was pulled to safety.
Three lemon sharks and many fish and turtles were unfortunately killed in the accident. People say that the
glass broke because of low winter temperatures. There are no plans to replace the aquarium which had become a popular attraction in the city.
