This man struggled to seek financial support in the neighboring emirate, Abu Dhabi, when the project was questioned about the economic crisis and the great debt that the city of Dubai had in the final stage of construction.

The exterior of the Burj Khalifa is covered with 26,000 glass panels, each of which is cut individually. With that impressive amount, more than 15 football stadiums could be covered.

It also has the tallest viewpoint, disco and restaurant in the world. To be exaggerated, they even take the palm for having the most spectacular year-end fireworks show! But what most surprises the visitor is perhaps its ultra-fast elevator with capacity for 14 people that travels half a kilometer in just one minute. It goes at a speed of 10m / s, or what is the same, 36km /h.

The elevators should not be taken in case of fire or any emergency, but ... how long does it take to go down more than 100 floors by stairs?
