The world's strangest, weirdest and scariest airports

[Blue_Tires]

From the Hebrides to the Himalayas, we reveal the strangest and scariest airports in the world.

Denver International
USA

Denver International Airport has found itself under intense scrutiny from conspiracy theorists since it opened in 1995.

Philip Schneider, a structural engineer turned whistle-blower who died in mysterious circumstances in 1996, claimed that beneath the airport lies a vast underground facility, which then prompted suggestions that the airport is actually hiding a secret military base or even a concentration camp.

And why, ask conspiracy theorists, do the runways form the shape of a swastika?

3. A swastika is a Hindu sigil, meaning that the path to the center is often not direct.

And the direction of the outer arms matters greatly.

The word swastika is derived from the Sanskrit word svastika (in Devanagari स्वस्तिक), meaning any lucky or auspicious object, and in particular a mark made on persons and things to denote good luck. It is composed of su- meaning "good, well" and asti "to be" svasti thus means "well-being."

What I don't like about the Denver airport, is the recorded verbal instructions on the trams, etc. Now unfortunately on buses all across LA...
