  • I miss the world trade center.

  • ANd no i am not jelious!..you guys have ONE world record Mexico has many

    worlds biggest police force

    Biggest taxi fleet(city)

    Worlds tallest rotating restaurant

    Tallest bridge

    Biggest Arena

    and plenty more!

  • Mexico can build a tower like that...but we got earthquake!...that thing would fall with a shack of an earth quack 3.5

  • @mexiacn100boy no this building is built for earthquakes up till a score of 5-7 on the rictor scale even though dubai never gets earthquakes really

  • @Shift4chizzle Now you and i know that's a lie...if the last 70 floors SHAKE with the very wind

  • @mexiacn100boy buildings that are very tall have to be built to shake from wind because in high winds especially it will just break if they dont shake u know what i mean?

  • @mexiacn100boy I didn't know that earth can "quack"..? lol. Just kidding bro. Mexico could build a building like this but I think their priority should be getting rid of the almost 60% poverty ratio and get rid of all those criminals (drug cartels) killing innocent people, but that's just my take bro. Anything is possible.

  • @rayochapin the war was unnessary it was just a political move.....its alll governments are stupid

  • imagine this becomin tha new 911

  • Taylor Gang Tower .

  • mission imposible brought me here

  • The problem with these middle east Muslim countries are the laws. U never know when they might imprison you or kill you for some law which could be absurd in America or Europe. USA anyday is the best country to live at. Truly democratic

  • @rohitblore2002 USA has warped our view on other countries/cultures, clearly.

  • Dubai is more beautiful than USA cities. it has biggest building, biggest mall, man-made islands, underwater hotels. simple because this is a tourist city, and its main profit will come from tourism (when oil finishes). This is a plan for future

  • Maybe if they want more visitors they could price hotels cheaper than Paris.

  • WOW! I would've loved to be there during that night.

  • WOW! I would've loved to be there that night.

  • I see alot of pakis and indians in U.A.E

    and im frikin arab and i cnt go

  • Mission Impossible anyone?

  • its shit

  • ALL I'VE GOTTA SAY IS HYDER CONSULTING TOWER LOOK IT UP ITS EPIC!

  • The earth's penis sure is small..

  • excuse me, but ihav to admit that dubai is waaay prettier than alot of cities in america really!.it has it all.

  • looks like a huge cock.

  • Just name it the Wiz Khalifa and paint it black n yellow

  • @kennyb010 lmfaooo

  • @tvshekekingify we all from one father called Adam and we always forget this. I cant understand whay all this hate between us caused by the diffirence of the place we live in or the color of skin we got. This project done by a team from group of nationalities. A Designer can do nothing without a good team that doing different functions from Project Management till a Builder.

  • Americans really don't know what they are talking about and it shows in this videos comments.

  • @bboschboi Funny (your comment). Considering Americans designed and engineered the thing....

  • It's the Earth's Penis!

  • @michaelm0522 and beijing's olympic stadium is the pussy! :D :D :D LOL

  • because of terrorists USA would never have one of these we have to much haters

  • Fuck all these rag heads USA all the way

  • @jeepgrand0 go to hell

  • @jeepgrand0 yes mate, now go shag your sister, hillbilly

  • Lol @ all dumb americans who cant stand that the tallest tower is in Dubai

  • Am I the only person here who knows who designed this building. Well if you don't know it was a man named Adrian Smith, a guy born in Chicago, Illinois. A man born in the United States of America designed this building, why he had it built in this shithole of a country and not New York, I don't know, but stop complaning because just about every modern building in the world was designed by an American architect.

  • @93214919321491 You idiot the Sears Tower was designed by a Muslim from India so what's your point.

  • @green012511 Okay first of all it's hindu's that live in India not Muslims, second of all its not called the sears tower anymore it's called the willis tower, third of all that "Muslim from India" was just one man in an architecture firm. It was many men, most of them Americans, that designed the willis tower but it was one inpreticular man who designed the Burj Khalifa and that man happens to have been born in the United States.

  • @93214919321491 So if wasn't specifically designed by an American, it was designed by a team of mostly Americans.

    You're a disgrace to your own country. Butthurt moron.

  • Holy crap. Would you two stop bitching at one another. Grow up already and just take in the news. WOW. Islam preaches ONE LOVE

  • @kesha1234ize I KNO RIGHT?? that building is shit compared to the world trade center

  • 0:06 shade mohamed binrasheda on my toom push the button :DDDDDDDDDDDDD

  • the middle east is a hell hole ive been all over but dubai i have to say is one of the best places ive ever been. i continue to make the long flight to dubai for vacation every year... 

  • I would go on this tower over and over again just because if I fall or anything happens I know for sure I'd be instantly dead, I'd be dead after the best fucking fall ever. That's a happy death for me xD

  • Not Better than America bro

  • @footballrox12 america looks like shit compared to dubai

    accept it yank

  • @ownedzaros

    America doesnt contain a bunch of smelly arabs

  • @footballrox12 america contains a bunch of rapists, criminals and dirty immigrants all around the world

    and also ugly people like you who are mcúch worse than your 'smelly arabs'.

  • @ownedzaros

    America contains the only truly free men in the world.

  • @LukeWapelhorst Do free men get groped at the airports, bus stations and shopping malls by TSA agents in the name of "safety"? Do free men have their rights to bear arms stomped on, or their right to free speech laughed at? How about not knowing what their government is up to, does that sound like a country of "free" men?

  • @Waroftheworlds112

    I understand, but the fact that we still have the right to bear arms (except Illinois) is what makes us free. The government still fears its people--which leads to another great thing about America. The government IS the people. An average Joe can run for president.

  • @LukeWapelhorst Only if that average Joe has a couple of millions lying around to fund the campaign, bribe Faux and hope 300 million morons vote for him.

    Get a fucking clue!

  • @Tr1pTr0p

    One can always start small and run for a local office first. It's like any other venture such as starting a business.

  • @footballrox12 instead it contains fat incest rednecks, also alot of racists, and serial killers. Your country is shit man get over it

  • @gilamunja

    Every country has its serial killers and recists. America happens to be one of the few countries that isnt racist because it is open to all sorts of people of different race and religion. This country is the only country where everyone has equal opprotunity and can believe whatever they want.

  • @footballrox12 yes but America is best known for them. And no, it isn't the only country where everyone has equal opportunity. Your country isn't as great as you all think it is.

  • @gilamunja

    please tell me how

  • Haters going to hate. I've been up the Burj Khalifa. It and Dubai are amazing. It's way better than America or Europe

  • @GregoryMThornton Yeah, brilliant unless you fancy a beer, or your missus wears a skirt.

  • I'd be scared to live/stay/ visit a tower that high in case there was a fire or something. Also, while indeed it is a marvel of engineering, the world's resources are finite and it seems obscene to build something like this just for the sake of it. Surely there are more pressing problems in the world to focus on, such as over-population, dwindling energy supplies, pollution, education, health problems and the like? Honestly some things seem to be back-asswards in this world!

  • @ravrik I think most of the engineering in Dubai was meant to harbor high populations, like the plans to build rotating towers that not only produce renewable sources of energy, but give a beautiful view of the city in your own home in a 360 angle.

    As well as the architecture and technology to improve public transit with high speed trains and glass barriers at stations for protection, and of course, the plans for building homes and buildings over the sea.

    You'd have to look at the positives :)

  • Dubai won't last that long... Too much supply, not enough demand. Really, who the hell wants to live in the Middle East anyway?

  • @ExileAdventure87 lots of western slaves like you coming and stealing our money, who want to live in ur poor country any ways, u got bad economy, poor people, crime, fat people, rape, teenage pregnancy, list go on .....

  • Imagine if Justin Bieber was struck by an alien ray and grew bigger than the Burj Khalifa...

  • Comment removed

  • No using of lift when theres a fire!!!!

  • If I was in the top of the building,I would have died from scare!

  • @TechTheFanatic goodbye cruel world!...ok, goodbye now...now...now...why so high!?

  • @chickenwing986 Go take a geography class and then come back to YouTube. The most ignorant comment i have ever seen.

  • @bklynkiddddd European Union = 1,669,807 square miles. United States = 3,794,101 square miles.

  • Lol let's see Spider-Man climb THAT! XD

  • bet usa is feeling but hurt

  • lets fly some planes into the Burj Khalifa and see how they like it

  • @chickenwing986 although this statement seriously fallacious, I had a hearty laugh reading it. props.

  • @chickenwing986 Dubai and the UAE had nothing to do with 9/11, Its like blaming canada for something the USA has done because there both in north Am. Only an stupid geographically illiterate american would come up with such shit

  • @will101page Give me a fucking break, they all secretly fund each other. Even today the funding for al qaeda operations remains mostly a mystery..

  • @chickenwing986 "they all fund each other" Only a fucking stupid arrogant american would make such a comment. Have you ever left the USA?? I have been to dubai and all over europe and it is much better than the USA

  • @will101page actually I've been to France and Spain, and I have to say while it was beautiful, it was overcrowded and the people were rude. I've been to Mexico and the Bahamas, and the people there were more gracious than those I encountered in Europe.

  • @chickenwing986 Overcrouded? New York city is the most overcrowded place on the planet.

  • @will101page So where in the USA have you been?

  • @chickenwing986 I LIVED in new york city for over a year!

  • @will101page Coooollllll. Well the US is over three million square miles in size, so before you criticize the entire country, remember that it dwarfs the EU in size and that you shouldn't brush it off so quickly. I'm just saying. I don't want to fight.

  • @chickenwing986 Cool, yeh Ive been to most major cities in the US, I love NY and san francisco but I HATE Los angeles! lol i love London so much though its a dream

  • @will101page I love traveling, I love to go outside the country but there are so many places inside the US to see that most of my traveling has been here. I plan on going to the UK someday as well, london sounds amazing

  • the reporters voice gives me a headache

  • guess what 9/11 is coming !

  • @freshaashiq so, what has it do with the talest building in the world and those buildings were defeated by sears tower after 1 year, than the twin towers came and defeated sears tower and the twin towers were defeated by taipei 101 and taipei 101 is defeated by this building.

  • AMERICA NEEDS TO STEP UP THERE GAME. AMERICA IS LOOKING GHETTO.

  • if i ever see that guy Dubai or what ever i'll kick his ass

  • I Like Dubai

    I Love Muslim !

    I from Azerbaijan !

  • @cavid2008

    I like Dubai too

    I hate muslims ( that is because I hate religion, Arabians and european, some americans are ok)

    my father is from tunesia

  • The building is very well made. I find it fascinating that people have that much money lying around...

  • Why go to place is like hell or worse.

  • Keep pressing 3 lol

  • @Nicdog829 loool

    pressed it 20 times

  • @Dvigoroso of course it is!

  • diz is wiz kahlifa house

  • a person who wants to cmmit suicide is like fuck a bridge thts so plain ima buy myself a ticket go to dubai and jump off this mother fucker with a brocken parashoot !

  • @mustachab if you want to commit suicide this is the place! you would die from fear before you hit the ground!

  • @TheHEADonWHEELS most americans don't need to leave the country as "the world" comes to us. America is roughly the size of the EU. Go 200 miles in one direction is Europe, you could be speaking a whole different languge, do the same in America, you could be in the same state.

  • @TheHEADonWHEELS like people say some british are so full of themselves thats why i prefer to go to USA

  • @TheHEADonWHEELS Im sure u visted dubai in the 19's , we treat our women very respectively like how our religion told us to, ask any emarati women how they are treated an u will get ur answer. and by the way I am not comparing London's economy with Dubai's economy. I am just telling u that most people beleive in what the media are wanting them to beleive.

  • @TheHEADonWHEELS Stop saying bullshit... u should come and see how Dubai is and look how good is our economy yes ok properties in dubai are becoming cheaper. Dubai has rich history and culture if u studied it. plus we love our city so much not like some people in London who go and destroy their home town steal stuff from stores and burn places like apes.

  • @TheHEADonWHEELS ha ha make me laugh. ja ja ja ja there i am laughing.

  • @TheHEADonWHEELS Yes u are jealous of dubai... by the way dubai economy is getting better it just sliped down durring the recession just like most cities in the world.

  • 0:30 deep financial crisis WTF is she saying. if Dubai was in crisis would they really build a 1 billion dollar building. artificial islands that look like palms, an island that looks like the world. clearly Dubai is the richest city in the world. they are the biggest oil producer.

  • what they dont talk about, is theres a 7/11 at the top :D jk jk

  • I went there yesturday!

  • wow :)

  • Comment removed

  • When the oil runs out the city of Dubai will be covered by the desert even quicker than the World Archipelago is being eroded by the ocean.

    The reason why New York invented skyscrapers and Shangai is building them by the dozen is the exact same reason why the Burj Khalifa (the world's largest penis extension) is still 90% unocupied and had rental rates plummet by 70%.

    "If you build it they will come"

    Not neccesarily - especially to a bleak desert wasteland with a climate worse even than Hell.

  • @PresidentZod HAHAHA you now what..... I'm pretty sure your jealous of dubai!!! 0_0

  • @louisef1+1=3 Well, I most certainly wouldn't be jealous of Puta Ricans - that's for damn sure.

  • @PresidentZod Climate worse than hell, is correct. the heat in Dubai is HELL. pretty cool city though

  • the buildings architecture is so cool,i wish i could live in it

  • Dubai is such a beautiful and amazing city!

  • This woman's accent is hilarious. Is this is a real regional accent or is she putting putting it on?

  • @claudioscola its an american accent! :|

    

  • @xredb THe second tallest building is Asian. HA!

  • I'm American but i wouldn't be racist if I were you. 9/11 happened after Twin Towers was the world's tallest building so the Arabs aren't jealous, trolls!

  • I bet you're just hating on The building because you're jealous of something you could never accomplish!

  • I want to enjoy the luxury of that beautiful piece of architecture but I can't because of all the racist pro-American trolls!

  • i cant wait to 10 al Qaeda terrorist hit that tower with a plane too

  • imagine if wiz khalifa lived there...

  • it looks like something out of the wizard of ozz..the emerald city..lol

  • what did the headwheel guy say

  • Taylor gang or die

  • I love Dubai.

  • This Building is designed by an American Architect from Chicago.

  • hi Dubai i like UAE too much again i am coming to see u

  • The biggest Arab erection in the world.

  • i think he meant to name it wiz khalifa. taylorgang or die

  • WIZ KHALIFA

  • @geofernandez22 no its not wiz khalifa the name come from abu dhabi sheik

  • @geofernandez22 sucks balls

  • @geofernandez22

    this beautiful structure has nothing to do with some nigger

  • @Smubbs

    lawl :P

  • wow that thing is almost the size of my penis

  • Isn't that funny, the terrorists that blew up our towers came from the middle east, and then somewhere in the middle east they build the new world's tallest building. LOL. Good thing most rednecks in this country are too ignorant to even know about Dubai, let alone this building, or they would cry foul. :p

  • @eggiex1 It's almost twice the size of the twin towers :P

    There's a thought, what if they stacked one of the twin towers on the other tower? XP

  • @eggiex1 its almost twice the height of the sears tower

  • only one word...WOW

  • Comment removed

  • Little does the Associated Press and Dubai know, that is not actually a skyscraper. It is Chuck Norris's erection.

  • Cant wait for a plane to hit that

  • @WillyNoNuts you fucking bastard!

  • Burj Khalifa = The Modern Tower of Babel.

  • @2face15 nah...we haven't seen anything yet, imo. 

  • This is inspiring. I don't care that it's not american (even though I'd like to have the national bragging rights) it is an acheivement that mankind as a whole can be proud of . It's amazing what we are capable of.

  • lol @ all the jelly Americans up in the comments section...

  • 2 words. Fucking Huge

  • all that i can say as simple draughtsman.hats off to the construction and design team.wish one day i will be part of your team.

  • @SprintingLightning Wow calm down. Its a beautiful building!! But just some advice for you.....If you are going to swear at someone in English put the words together in the correct order. For example, Motherfucker bitch dick doesnt make any sense. Next time try.. Hey dick you are a Motherfucking bitch! I hope this helps. By the way Dubai has bankrupted itself to put all the buildings up. But it is beautiful. Welcome to the 21st century arabs Now if we can get arabs to take a bath!!

  • BAJAJAAJ WIZ KHALIFA TOWER

    

  • I would really stop worrying about pay and worry about somebody attacking it. Look at what happened over here in the U.S...

  • @MetalRock7777

    But the Emirates aren't attacking other countries for no reason .... America does

  • @RedJoker It's a litttle ironic that a German is accusing an American of attacking other countries for no reason. Germany started two world wars. How far do you have your head up your ass. There is a big difference between invading Iraq and Invading Poland. As a German you should have to wait at least 100 years after Hitler before you can judge other countries. And if you have to judge, consider that the post wwII period of American supremacy has been one of the most peaceful times in history.

  • @port27420

    I should wait at least a 100 years?

    Most stupid thing I've ever heard

  • @port27420 I dont get how could invading a country for it's oil a better reason than for territory...

  • tower of BABEL!

  • Man jumps off Burj Khalifa tower in Dubai

  • go dubai!

  • The architect was american

  • The architect was American

  • i hate high building,

  • i wish america built things like they do in Dubai. an other places of the world.

  • @tehpizzaman Where can I buy American flag toilet paper ?

  • Lol I thought this was a vid about the burj khalifa, not volcanoes

  • 828 Meters is 2717 feet. That Tower is twice the size of the Willis tower O_O
