Oh, wow. Apparently, in May, a Brit and a Frenchman snuck on to the under-construction Burj Dubai and BASE jumped from it at 650 meters up. Now, there's video available of their infiltration, jump and subsequent escape. The footage from up top and the jump is just incredible stuff. Although my favorite part of the video may be the footnote at the end; wait for it, it's worth it.

    So this thing is going to be as high as 800m.

    I wonder how the poor bastards on the top floor are going to evacuate in an emergency. It took these two guys an hour and 15 minutes to CLIMB 650m...
