The deepest pool in the world is known as Nemo 33, a recreational scuba diving center located near Brussels, Belgium which opened in 2004.
It is filled with 2,500,000 liters of non-chlorinated, highly filtered spring water maintained at 30 °C (86 °F) and contains several simulated underwater caves at the 10 m depth level.
The world´s largest indoor golf centre, Indoor Golf Arena, is expected to open its doors in the Netherlands in 2010.
The 18,000 m2 centre of excellence for golf will provide state-of-the-art, weather-independent, recreational and professional training facilities.
The project is the result of cooperation amongst a number of Dutch companies that are world-leaders in the golf sector, most notable of which are developer Indoor Golf Project and golfing simulator manufacturer ProTee United, who will install 20 simulators.
The simulators offer a wide choice of national and international golf courses to choose from, as well as a driving range with high-tech swing analysis equipment.
The center is equipped with a kid’s training area, bar, lounge and an up market restaurant as well. they also have a conference room, meeting rooms and sky lounges.
The Indoor Golf Arena is supported by the Professional Golfers Association Europe (PGAE) and is expected to draw 150,000 visitors per year.
Eventually, the Indoor Golf Project management aims to build up to 10 Indoor Golf Arenas worldwide.

For many years now Karl Lagerfeld and Chanel have been producing some of the world’s most preposterous and overpriced sporting goods.
First there was the Chanel snowboard with trompe l’oeil “quilting”; then $2,5000 Chanel skis. More recently the fashion house has produced a Chanel’s $12,000 bike, a pink Chanel tennis racket complete with tennis balls and a Chanel boomerang.
And now, here is the luxurious fly-fishing rod from the latest Chanel sports collection, priced at just under $20,000. It seems to be a Karl Lagerfeld’s personal tribute to Coco Chanel and her love of the relaxing sport !
For a mere £9,170 the ponciest angler on the planet can kit himself out with a Chanel rod and a set of meticulously tied, monochrome Chanel flies, complete with the famous “double C” logo on the gossamer wings, presented in a rather fetching, quilted black leather box.
It seems we haven’t shown you the fanciest Foosball table ever made yet : designers are greatly inspired by the luxury foosball table and can’t stop inventing new ones.
until we saw the Teckell Collection 2008, exquisite creations made of sparkling crystal, and populated with shiny aluminum players.
Teckell Collection foosball tables, created by Adriano Design, are characterized by their transparent surfaces as well as their innovative shapes and sizes.
They are available in different editions with all featuring a crystal frame with gleaming aluminum players, thereby enabling them to take the honor of world’s most expensive foosball tables ever produced.
Albeit there is no word disclosed about the pricing of this product as the design company chooses to be tightlipped for now.
Those of you tired of playing pool on conventional wooden table shall try their luck on this No.6 Sculpted Steel Billiard Table from Carbon Studio. Priced at $27,000, this innovative table is designed and handcrafted developed by Colorado sculptor Daniel Romano.
It features a hot rolled steel finish that comes with refined edges, hand structured metal pockets with rubber liners standing on steel legs.
