New World's Tallest Building - the Burj Dubai

boze dragi sta ovi nece napraviti sila su

my god... thats insane. I thought that the Taipei 101 was huge when it was a work in progress... but, wow. all that oil money in the middle of the dessert.

Lol, what's that say about you lmao ahahawhaha

LOL"Oh my gosh I`ve never been this high in my life!"

wow i would like to go there

...fraud and force should be abolished, but voluntary agreements should be left alone, even if the parties involved don't come to the same agreement you would have made for them.

"What they dont tell you is that they import workers from pakistan/india/iran etc to work on those buildings for less then a few dollar a day"

They wouldn't be going there unless it were an improvement upon their previous conditions.

That said, Dubai is having problems with lawlessness on the part of companies confiscating their workers' passports, not honoring their workers' contracts, etc. But that's a different matter entirely...

"all americans quit hating on dubai. our country was built on slave labor."

Nonsense. The South stagnated partly because of slave labor -- they didn't need labor-saving devices, so they didn't develop them. Slavery makes the slaveowners lazy and complacent. The great majority of the US antebellum infrastructure was in the North, which gave them a large advantage during the Civil War. The only things that were built on slavery were the backwards, rednecky elements of Southern culture.

Yeah ur rite its called the spining tower....but i dont think its gonna be tht tall...!

all americans quit hating on dubai. our country was built on slave labor. thats less than a couple bucks a day

I've just returned to London, just bk from Hong Kong and IFC & ICC were increadible.. BD is almost twice as tall and that says alot! Staggering. Good luck to you Dubai, the only thing I can say is: don't just build attractions, build a city that is dense and really works, otherwise it's just a theme park to the extrodinary.. make a city out of the desert that is truly dense, not just an exibit. But still, what you're building is a testemony to all of mankind, respect..

Im So Proud To Be A Citizen Of The United Arab Emirates =D

incredible

dude they r but they say its a secret and they also said that its 1.1 km!

I think these are blessing from the prayers of prophet Abraham:

"And when Abraham said: My Lord, make it a secure town and provide its people with fruits, such of them as believe in The God and the last day..." (The Quran chapter 2 verse 126)

No offense, just my own opinion.
