Russia added these extra bleachers to their Ekaterinburg Arena in preparation for them hosting the 2018 World Cup. Originally planned as a 27,000 seat stadium, FIFA requires more seats so they added temporary seats to bring the total capacity to 45,000. And those seats are terrifying...

That is what I kept thinking in my head. The CG picture looks much smoother and usable. The actual Thing looks like scaffolding. Scary shite.

Look online at the other pics. The entire structure is made out of scaffolding with the bleachers sitting on top. It actually does look terrifying imo.

DaveyDownerDawg•79 months

Who in the hell thought those were a good idea?

The most corrupt sporting body on the face of planet earth, FIFA. Look how they have to screw up the stadium's design to add these to the outside. Top few rows will see nothing as they're blocked by the damn roof. FIFA needs to get over itself.

The same people who have no problem with blatant slave labor being used to build stadiums in Qatar.

That's not scaffolding. It's a welded (or bolted) lattice steel frame. The most basic structural design there is.

CarRamrod•79 months

Thats what you think. Did you see some of the pictures of Sochi stuff that was built.

Martini•79 months

That's not scaffolding. It's a welded (or bolted) lattice steel frame. The most basic structural design there is. So is scaffold.

BigBlueAU•79 months

I've always had have a fear of falling when I'm sitting in the upper deck of a stadium. This structure would play mind games with me like no other.
