    ... /sigh /facepalm

    Regarding the height... I personally wouldn't WANT to be at the top of that thing. Its funny, I have sky dived from about 13-14,000 feet (I think a little over 5-6k over the land, this took place in Salt Lake City - my cousins took me up when I turned 18) but I would NEVER want to be in that building without a parachute more than about... 30 stories up, it would scare the bejeebus out of me.

    probably wont be attacked by terrorists seeing as how dubai is a muslim state and for the taliban it would be like shooting themselves in the foot
    looks amazing though
    seems like dubai is the place to be now

    LMFAO

    How racist you are thinking muslims are the only terrorists. To other nations the US is as much a terrorist nation as Saddam or Bin Laden or anyone else is to us.
