Man's competitive spirit of being always first is never ending. The higher the better. Recently built the Burj Khalifa (the khalif's pearl) is officially the tallest building in the world (828m) holding a few more records including:
- Tallest free-standing structure in the world;
- Highest number of stories in the world;
- Highest occupied floor in the world;
- Highest outdoor observation deck in the world;
- Elevator with the longest travel distance in the world and fastest speed with 60 km/h;
- Tallest service elevator in the world
Put that all together and how much you think a ticket to the highest observation deck might be?! Only 16 pounds!!! The only thing is to go to Dubai and book a hotel.
All images are taken from the official website of the tower.
Here is a breath-taking footage of 2 crazy men base jumping from the top of the tower:
