    The only structure bigger is the Warsaw Radio Mast in Poland.

    It'll probably have a radio mast on top. So just imagine being the enginneer that has to climb out on the roof, then scale the radio mast for any work.

    I wonder how long from when it's completed someone bypasses security to base jump from it.

    Or better yet, if that mad French bastard decides he wants to climb it.

    Seriously, just looking at that picture is making me feel dizzy.
    What sort of idiot would build something that high?

    Current height

    As of 12 May 2008,[9] Burj Dubai had reached a height of 636 m (2,087 ft), with 160 completed floors[10].

    Thats crazy.

    The tallest building I've ever seen was the Bank of America in NC. It's apparently only 871 ft and that scared me enough.

    Wouldn't mind going on top of that once built. No doubt it'll be based jumped pretty much as soon as its open.
