Video with the View From the Tip Top of the Burj Dubai

I hope you are not afraid of heights, because there aren’t too many YouTube videos capable of inducing measurable feelings of vertigo while you watch comfortable at your desk, but this is one of them. In this video you can see the view from the highest man-made point on earth …Burj Dubai’s spire. The tower it’s more than half a mile tall and stands at 2,684ft (818m). It was started in 2004 and is expected to be complete by the very beginning of 2010. The total budget for the Burj Dubai project is a cool $4.1 Billion. Finally this is the quote that got my attention while I was watching this video : “The tower wobbles, dreadfully, so if my hand is shaking, it’s not just me.” Indeed.

    It’s really amazing view. I’ve been flying with a paraglider and the view also was fantastic but at the same time scary. The adrenalin is rushing through you body and the feeling is just awesome. I think that here in this height is the same. Of course this is not for people with height phobia, right?
