I've been to the Skybridge that's halway up Petrona's Tower and that was high enough. It's a great view but that superfast elevator ride can turn your stomach. (the only comparison is the train at Atlanta airport)
It wasn't scary enough. He should have braced the camera so we could have gotten a sense of the sway. I might have thrown up. But he didn't, so I didn't. Wasted opportunity. He should have dropped the camera into a fishing net held by one of his buddies on the ground. That would have been cool. Sometimes I dream about being up in a really tall building, and it sways like my drunken grandma. I fall to the floor, claw at the carpet and scream like a girl. Doesn't happen in real life though. I don't know how to interpret dreams.
It is kind of funny. Those rich dorks are spending all there money, and once they run out of oil, they will have a giant empty tower surrounded by useless empty land.
The slums of the million or so workers that suffer just for a daily meal take any interest of Dubai right out of it for me.
The Dark Side of Dubai.
