Sochi Toilet photo goes viral

[Rienzphotoz]

This photo apparently has gone viral on the internet ... apparently this is not a fake photo but a real toilet with twin commodes to take your dump ... very strange ... I wasn't sure on which section I should post this ... so after much deliberation, I settled for "Street & City" section ;D
Sochi twin toilets in men's room cause Olympic-sized flap

well, not unheard of, there are other communal toilets,

I guess the joke is how much was "spent" in Sochi...


Edit:

In a further update, it looks, if one carefully looks at the image, that a divider wall has been removed, the outline can still be seen on the wall between the two toilets.
Supposedly this was done in the course of converting them to other use.

It's realy strange to see that in public place in morden building, and for foreghners.
But it was's not uncommon in Russia some time ago. In school in boys restroom (in 1990) we had one sink and two holes in the floor with metal bars to step on, no cabins or walls - only one door. So when someone entered toilet, people standing in the hallway could see others standing over the holes with naked butts.) It was not intentional, but more a heritage from soviet past.
In univercity we had 3-5 toilets with paper walls between them (no doors). I was working in the factory and toilet was 6х10 meters room with 4 seats along one wall, and people were smoking and other people taking their needs at the same time. Now I can imagine to see that in some old factory or army building build long time ago, but it's funny to see that in modern buisness complex.

I can assume that builders made normal toilets, but some inspection guy was too fat to fit in it, so they removed walls to make cabins bigger.)

Nice framing, but really, the bin should have been aligned to provide better symmetry
