  • I live there. I LOVE MY CITY.

    DUBAI = BEST =D

  • Comment removed

  • how do you get the crane down at the top? Anyone?

  • Could you imagine, owning an apartment in that building.

  • you spelled report wrong in the title

  • Cavemen would shit their pants.

  • i have been in that elevator :) press my name to se inside the building

  • i'd shit my pants just standing there

  • God came to see their city and the tower they were building. He perceived their intentions, and in His infinite wisdom, He knew this "stairway to heaven" would only lead the people away from God. He noted the powerful force within their unity of purpose. Its just like the tower of Bable..

  • Is that why Gas in America is so expensive?

  • 0:58 thats what she said...

  • I can't believe people are fighting who built this tower, You can't say one country built it, the architect was american adrian smith, samsung also contributed to the project which isn't american, the koreans and japanese also helped, its never 1 person or 1 country that builds it all.

  • americans didnt design this building fuccking americans taking credit for everything

  • WOW you Americans are weird.

    Who gives a crap who built this tower?

    "Designed by Chicago Architects" O REALLY??

    Is America trying to claim something they build/designed like they

    did with the land they live on, which was already occupied by Indians before

    any other man ever said foot on that land?

    Now I have nothing against Americans, but sometimes you people just act

    real stupid on things you think that are, but in fact are nothing less then political

    bullcrap!

  • to those who comment: can we try to have 5 minutes of PEACE together?!

  • Now you know where all your oil money's going...

  • once again the muslims have outdone themselves

  • @Airr91

    Where does being muslim come into this? This is a victory for the people of the UAE, not Islam. Remember, American GDP also benefitted from the construction of this building, because it was an American firm which designed it and had it built.

  • @AVIATIO because muslim people built this. im not muslim but they deserve the credit for making this building. your just same racist american who wants to feel pride in yourself knowing that your country has made this building. you are very close minded and probably a RACIST!

  • @Airr91

    So your comment was not meant to be offensive towards muslims? Because that is the way that you made it seem to suggest.

    Also I am not an American, I am Greek...and even if I did not like muslims, how the fuck does that make me a RACIST? Do you know what the definition of race means? Probably not, I imagine that you're only 8 years old.

  • @AVIATIO shut up you 8 year old. your very stiupid. your a fukcinhg raciest man. your beinhg so racisst to musliams. your asshole is RACIEST!!!!!!!

  • @Airr91

    Good lord, is it possible that you can become any stupider? Please learn how to carry on a normal conversation if you are truly older than 8 years old (and also learn how to spell). You are the one who left the offensive comment against muslims, not I. Lastly, look up what 'racist' means if you should have even one bit of intelligence....

  • @AVIATIO

    im not 8 yeras old u fuckin nigger. ur such a raciest dikface. im gna be the bigger man and leave u alone. aftre all ure just a fuking kid. fuck u u rasist bitch

  • @Airr91 Hahahahaha, your saying that AVIATIO is a racist when you just called him The "N" word! And Islam did'nt buildt this building. it just happend that the person who payed for this building were a muslim. And the architect was from Europe. And the workers were from south asia....

  • @cappermeh Actually the tower's architecture and engineering were performed by Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill of Chicago, with Adrian Smith(american not european) as chief architect, and Bill Baker(american not european) as chief structural engineer. The primary contractor was Samsung C&T of South Korea though so you weren't completely wrong.

  • @danran78 Really? I saw this decomtary from Discovery Channel and in the interview with only one Architekt and his accent did'nt sound like american.

  • @Airr91 They did say Americans made the design of it,based only on Islamic art.

  • Mankind: We're f***ing insane, and we wouldn't want it any other way!

  • Where does the money come from to build such fantastical buildings? Buy an electric car and and let them rust back into the desert.

  • @MrValuedCustomer

    oh yah ! go fuck your self till your brain comes up with a better solution.

  • Imagine skydiving from that building.

  • @deenage its already happend search Base jump burj dubai

  • This looks crazy, wow!

  • AND THIS ladies and gentlemen is why we do not have electric cars yet.

  • @banksb420 Burj Dubai and electric car , how is that connected? lol

  • @Tempus81 He is referring to how oil companies have repeatedly killed the electric car. This building would have never been built without all the oil money is what he is saying. Watch Who Killed The Electric Car to understand what is talking about. It is really, really interesting. The electric car was around first and will eventually be around last. With the steady improvement of battery technology it's only a matter of time before the electric car takes over again.

  • Hotel!!!!

  • Atlantis Hotell**

  • UAE also have that manmade structure that had housings,mall,skyscraper and the atlantic hotel. They will also have the biggest theme park which is the Ferrari Theme Park! These people are rich!

  • now get a terrorist and run into it! no jk jk jk jk.

  • @turddestroyer not cool dude.

  • sorry but only a FOOL would live there!

  • @ShayDirect Yeah, dont cry little american :)

  • Who would want to go up there, your trapped if some terrorist wants to mess this up.

  • hopefully you're not near them. the twin towers were not taken down by jet fuel. research it, there was alot of cover-ups. it's not possible for a jet to take down a building & there's plenty of evidence of what really was the cause. I don't think the same thing can happen there

  • @thnk4urself

    they weren't taken down by jets period. the towers fell too perfectly for them to be taken down by a plane. explosives planted in the building might of been it.. it's a cover up. US govt bastards.

  • @platinumEK yea man. I would've wrote that if I had room. There was unidentified workers coming in and out of the building leading up to the attack and there was people who heard detonations going off like a demolision right as the tower fell & not to mention, the tower fell with no resistance from the floors below as if they weren't there. It fell @ the same speed dropping a ball would. there's alot of ignorant people out there that need to wake up bcuz our Gov't knew

  • @platinumEK

    How do buildings normally collapse after a plane's hit them, then? I'd like to hope some of the conspiracy theories are true, but bombs? Pfft. Although I'm fairly certain World Trade Center 7's demise was a controlled demolition. There was just little reason for that to fall how it did.

  • thes building its done now

  • that shit look like the tower from Half Life 2

  • @sickside187 yeah, like the citadel

  • This video really puts it into perspective just how monstrous this tower is. I've been there but unfortunately it wasn't open at the time so I could only look at it from below. You don't get a feel for jsut how high it is unless you are quite far away and can see it in relation to the other buildings

  • You guys have to watch the crazy widow washers on ropes hanging over the sides cleaning with spray hoses on Youtube.

  • That's nothing, watch the one with guy all the way on top of the spire. OMG.

  • Oh my God... That's really, really high.

  • thats all i got to say good morning USA  ...

  • ooops its a big one maxm now

  • it's amazing

  • salami, eggs, and bacon!

  • ALLOHU AKBAR,,,ALHAMDULILLOH...

  • GOOO MUSLIMS!!!!!!

  • Why don't all the countries collaborate and make this world a better place.

    When some Power can collaborate to destroy other countries, i.e. Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. then why can't the same countries help in making this world a better place?

    America is capable of doing the good. The designer of this beautiful building is an American Firm.  So, why don't American take a hint from their own company Skidmore of Chicago & collaborate to Build, and Not to Destroy other countries. Everyone wins.

  • Dubai gives a hope to the rest of the world. There are people from almost every nationality that call UAE home. There are people from every social class benefiting.

    Global collaboration at its best.

    1) Arabs did the planning, they are world class in planning, all the Gulf countries are an example. Dubai is the Diamond in the Gulf.

    2)South Korean Firm Samsung is the project leader.

    3) American firm Skidmore designed it

    4) Workers from Asia, Pakistan, Bagladesh, etc. have built it.

  • is it 3384 feet?

  • Dunno about feet. but it's 818 Meters

  • TEAM DUBAI BABY

  • hey watch what youo say about those "tiny little buildings" dianne! Size isn't everything you know!

  • @youmusicfree

    dude what did you smoke ? :S

    ''Dubai has been voted the safest city in the world two years in a row by Interpol and crime is virtually non-existent.''

    And , if you did look for some info you could find easy that their GDP from oil is less then 6% ..in last 10 years .

  • @youmusicfree Are you serious? Dubai is really safe, if you haven't been there.

    You're probably the average American that thinks that everything besides the U.S. is poor and unsafe. Go to South Central Los Angeles, or look at how shitty Detroit is.

  • south central has really been cleaned up it was much worse in the early 90s.... right now..... baltimore and new orleans are the 2 most dangerous citys in the united states due to how poor they are..... the police cant afford to do there job properly... and with lack of police... the criminals are aloud to prosper

  • True. Cleaned up? yes. Still a shitty city to live in. Just look at some of our cities, many people don't because they're still in the suburbs without leaving.

  • @ezerarias yeah ya r rite itz safe iam also gona settle dere...:)

  • wtf, they have the best, of everything!

  • @bobisyour dear itz in quran.....ya knw watz dat...??the book after bible ...itz mention dat dese areas will b richest....c.da fact dy have nthn widout oil....so hot...no resources...n still richest....now i am proud to b muslim cz wtever my religion says is true....:)

  • @32 spy, all i know is the city of dubai is great!

  • @bobisyour you are absolutely right

  • duabi has like no oil.... compaired to the countrys surrounding it.... so the leader of duabi decided to turn the city into a tourism attraction.... they plan on acheving this by building a whole bunch of worlds first and best buildings and structures... like the man made palm islands or the burj duabi

  • only build houses

  • @Joe402 Highly doubt it.

  • ass !! i leave my car open and nobody stole it ,,i wonder why /? can u do that in US

  • Probably not. Tell me about living in a place that uses slave labor to build things.

  • @uae123451 u left your car open and nobody stole it !!!!!!!! WoW....., in the US......... id smack u on your face with my shoe..u douche bag,

  • @kanserstyx and am goin to smack u with my gucci shoes ,,, lool

    what i mean is that its much safer in here than other places in the world

  • lol, actual ur right ......iv had my stereo stolen like five times out of my car in front of my house , iv had two cars stolen , iv had my house broken into 2 times ,there has been five shoot outs in front of my house and iv had my house shot at once....and i sleep with a gun.... but you know what..i dont think id ever leave this place :)

  • now thats what you call a skyscraper!

  • I can't believe how much animosity this thing has brought. It's a massive global achievement, but certain people (not going to mention any nationalities, *cough* Americans) seem offended by its construction and somehow have to justify why it isn't in their country.

  • oh my fucking god!!!!

  • LONG LIVE ARAB NATIONS

  • arabs built the pyramids , all profits of god are from arab countries , arabs occupy have of the world by their ideology . of fairness and peace . all nationalities live peacefully in dubai . all want to be there . you who are not are geolous because they cannot afford to be there . if they can they will go. we were the teachers of the archeticture in spain andalucia were eurpeans were in the dark ages come to learn in arab universities the basics of design archeticture

  • common man we have nothing to do with politics ,, our country called UNITED ARAB EMARITES .... we are nt wt u think we are .,, and plz stop callin us with those names , just cause we build up some new stuff around

  • they could make an amusement park outta this LOL

  • 와우 대단하네요 ,,, 내일 모래 쯤 한번가서 동영상 한번 띄울가요!!

  • Pretty much us Americans paid for that.....

  • fkkk alll the hates >>>>>> :@

    UAE ROCKSSS

  • shut the fuck up dickhead

  • its true... 10 years ago nobody knu duabi even existed... now they got the biggest and best man made structure in the world..... fuckin bullshit

  • lmao ,, lisen buddy our country started 38 years ago and u heard about it 10 years ago and by the time we build the tallest building in the world ,, we accomplish stuff ,, big countries did it in more than 100 years so dnt play around and call us with names ,, and yes our fathers are nt educated but we are ,, and du u see that tall building ,, its just the beginning buddy

  • the only reason u got that building is because sheiek muhamad shitbag jabar started to build some sick things.... that would attract people that normally would stay the fuck away from duabi.... i dont like it because the burj duabi stole the record from torontos CN tower as tallest man made structure

  • hhhhhhhh ,,, funny shits so this is all about jealousy ???

    u dont want some 1 in the top isent it ?

    will we dont care anyway we just wanted to build sth great and we did ,,,, so nock ur self out cuz ur not changing anything

  • duabi will fade away..... they are in the spotlight now... but it wont last forever..... toronto canada is a much better city to live in ...... despite the snow 5 months a year

  • @101andrewj

    CN tower , already got bitten by Guangzhou TV & Sightseeing Tower in 2009 , welcome to the future !

  • i know.... that china tv tower is like 600m, but.... china has a lot longer history then canada.... and they just building this tower now.... toronto built the cn tower in 1973 and it was the tallest man made structure in the world for over 30 years until the burj duabi came along.....  china may be going hard on skyscrapers right now..... but canada deffently beat them to the punch

  • I Don't bai it.

  • lol my penis is bigger

  • my ass is fatter!

  • No my friend :) That thing does not represent an ASS but a DICK, really. It's an obelisk.

  • grand opening was pretty wicked last night.

    its now called Burj Khalifa btw, it was revealed last night at the opening.

  • to help poor people is more better than that u all have enough money so way u want to make more money with this burj they are so many poor people who need many for education,foot ,water and better life.that is waste of money and time what a shit

  • A waste of money. Money squandered for the benefit of some. Dubai should have spent the money on things that will be of use and beneficial for the country and its people in the short and longer time instead of this ill-advised and unbridled blunder in constructing all these buildings. The Oil will not remain the same and these buildings will be of no use to the people of dubai

  • what will the burj dubui be used for?

  • @Typewriter102 work space. tourism. possibly condos or apartments.

  • @SandburgSpartans Oh that's awesome :)

    It would be kinda scary having an apatmemt up there. Scared on hights :o

  • omg, ya, lol. i live in chicago and i wanna see the spire when it's done. if they ever start. LOL

  • @SandburgSpartans

    its done dumbass

  • @chefawkes wtf? ru talking about the chicago spire??? WOW!! They didn't start building above ground!!

  • its invisible you fuckin moron. sheesh.

  • @chefawkes lol, u don't know what ur saying. i'm just trying to tell you that the spire has broke ground.

  • ya im just screwing around now. at first i thought you were talkin about the burj.

  • @chefawkes lolz!1

  • Dubai is really nice over there .. they work hard ..

  • asian laborers does all their work

  • "designed by CHICAGO architects...."

  • wow dubai had to hire someone from chicago i found that amazing as well

  • of course they did. 30 years ago, the place was a desert. where the fuck were they supposed to learn advanced engineering? its only their kids now, that can get a world class education. for now they rely on foreigners for complicated stuff.

  • Yeah that's true. For example, Bruce Graham and Fazlur Khanunder (a Muslim) were commissioned by the Chicago based Skidmore, Owings & Merrill to design the Sears Tower.

    Burj Dubai is also designed by Skidmore Owings & Merill.

  • why did they change the name from burj dubai to burj khalifa?

  • they named it after the ruled of Abu Dhabi because, they lent dubai over $10B

  • how do you feel that this bulding is not in the united states of america, beaten?

  • Today Dubai gives the western and Arab media the tallest middel fingger

  • hahahahah good one bro

  • Videos from today opening, you can see in my added

  • Burj Khalifa (the tower of the Khalif) so the Muslims have a Khalifate again? What is his name?

  • Burj Dubai is falling down, falling down, falling down

    Burj Dubai is falling down

    My fair lady

  • better to build than destroy even if it is totally in excess

  • this actually squeezed a tear from me, beautiful!

  • Damn every time I see that tower I'm more and more impressed by human engineering and the amazing feats of every person involved with making this a reality. Truly a wonder of the world!!!

  • more of those nice towers.

  • offecial opening of this tower will be ان شاء الله on monday 4/jan/2010

    :)

  • Amazing:D 5/5 + add to Dubai playlist:), check a playlist on my channel for Burj Dubai Dancing Fountains - the biggest ever build. 40 000 L water / hour .

  • @khanana80,

    Israel has nothing against Dubai, the Israelis also have many business parternships in UAE, so would they want to destroy their own businesses ni United Arab Emirates?

    Also, your name suggest you are from India. Is your Indian identity the cause of such hateful remarks, considering that Indians are also present in UAE, what would you think of such an attack that you suggest, when alot of Indian will also be the casualities in UAE?

  • Forgot one more country,

    The man who uploaded this video on youtube for the world to see and give us all the opportunity to share our wisdom is from Poland :)

    So,

    Here is list of the main contributors.

    1) Arabs

    2) Americans

    3)Pakisanis

    4)South Koreans

    5) and Polish people too. for uploading this video on youtube atleast.

  • Beautiful.

    Actually this is a great example of how and if the world works together they can achieve such amazing heights.

    Think about it, the Burj Dubai is truly a global achievement. The man behind the idea, and financing is done by the Arabs, the Americans designed it, the South Korean Engineering firm Samsung is the Project leader, and the workers building it are mostly from neighboring countries like Pakistan.

    So, Burj Dubai should be nick named, the PEACE MAKER of the world.

  • Pretty impressive. And Dubai is only about 80 billion in the red. Considering the US is TRILLIONS of dollars in the red, their bankruptcy seems pretty insignificant.

  • Well you have to look at the differences in how much money goes in and out, and population... etc

  • gee. i wonder why dubai is bankrupt? could it be the half mile high building? the hotel shaped like a giant boat? the man made islands in the shape of the world?

  • Wow, what a huge achievement in a bankrupt city.

  • Those people are much closer to god now than Westerners. Those dudes living at the top of the tower can shake hands with god in the morning instead of looking up in the sky to pray to him. Westerners are falling way behind these people as they build their towers to the heavens. America is down with the cockroaches and the Freedom Tower is already an obsolete waste of taxpayer's money. The Burj Dubai represents how America used to be 60 years ago. What a difference a half-century makes.

  • Don't you mean they're closer to their 70 virgins? And talk about towers to the heavens: don't you mean the International Space Station? Or was it Arabs that got their lazy asses off the sand and landed on the moon?

  • Well said and check mate.

  • dang i gotta admire those construction workers at 2:42. standing on a crank 2600 ft above the ground. i woulda shit my pants.

  • Return the GDR steel!

  • How come they did not build this on Chicago or on the U.S.?

  • then the tax payers would start bitching. they definitely dont want another 911.

  • because it was built by Dubai....

  • Chicago is gonna build a Spire Tower next year. with 2000 ft. damn, shorter than this one.

  • doubtful. they dug the base, then realized they didn't have nearly enough money to build the tower. it's frozen for now - they might get a loan from the construction workers union though, because so many members are unemployed.

  • aw i went there it was soo fun ,, i love going to dubai to see just to see MY UNCLE ,, when i first looked at it i was like jesus ccchhrrrisst

  • Comment removed

  • it's 800 metre's it's fuckin huge!! the CN tower is only 500.

  • damn thats fuckin huge, that building is like 100 of my dicks stacked up

  • No2 is new TOKYO TOWER in the world

    new tokyo tower name is sky tree

    Sky Tree 634m

    Burj Dubai is 800m

    TAIPEI 101 is 500m

  • Comment removed

  • isnt it amazing, its the same with the new f1 race circout. as long as you dont have a democracy, hold yourself a slave army of workers, and are part of a cartel, you can build the tallest building in the world...amazing.

  • Indeed. Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer, keep your slaves closest.

  • armat, are you saying that the workers don't get paid?

  • no, i am saying that those workers (75% of the emirates population) get paid VERY low salaries, but because their still higher then the pakistani would earn in his villiage, those people still work their. i would imagine a monarchi that can effort to build the worlds tallest building is able to pay decent money. but they dont, thats why i said slave

  • they are paid an extremely low wage, charged for food and board, and many have their passports taken from them when they arrive.  They are essentially slave labour.
