A massive fire has erupted near the New Year’s Eve celebration in downtown Dubai. It hasn’t been reported what set the Address Hotel ablaze, but photos and videos being tweeted show at least half of the building engulfed in flames. No injuries have been reported and people are fleeing the area where fireworks are set to occur to ring in the New Year.

I watched the original video. #Dubai's Address Hotel fire started around the 16th floor and went straight up to the top in 7 minutes.
