The Tallest Building In The World Is Burj Dubai
Dubai makes history! As of today, you can find the tallest man-made building in Dubai. The skyscraper is called Burj Dubai (burj means tower in Arabic) and the tower overtook the Warszawa radio mast in Poland which measures 646 meters. The Dubai-based skyscraper measures 650 meters and it’s expected to get even bigger and will reach 819 meters to the aircraft beacon.
Dubai should hurry up with the Burj because Kuwait’s Burj Mubarak Al-Kabir will be finished in 2012 and will measure 1,001 meters. Until then, Dubai will be very proud of their achievement and I’m guessing that they could start a project to make it even taller and to compete against Burj Mubarak Al-Kabir.
Check out the video below with the video of the Burj Dubai designed by Adrian Smith, and at least for the moment, the tallest building in the world ever.

The building looks magnificent, like the most from Dubai. I can’t wait to see it finished.
Wonderful structure. Dubai did it again
My dream is to dive from the tower in the lake near it. Adrenaline, baby!
I wish someday will fulfill my goal and move to Dubai. It’s the ‘dream city’ for me. Now even more.
wow! amazing structure! i can’ think of how much money they invested…
Very Cooool! When it’s gonna be completed?
all will be perfect until bin laden will crash one of his airplanes into it
@kenny: I heard something about next year or 2010.. not sure.. but think about it.. there are only 169m remaining. It shouldn’t take too long.
Becuase middle east civilizations pay for Wonders of the World.
so thats what they doing with all our gas money, trying to reach God
im sorry but the tallest building will be in saudi arabia in jeddah and it will 1000metter …
so what type of people would visit Dubai, what all do they have to offer!also don’t get caught bringing back a seed of mary jane you will never see the us again!
the first two commenters act like Dubai is a fucking person
great !! we can see our extra oil investment here …
Freakin Arabs. We pay many extra gallons of oil for that shit? Burn in hell OPEC!
how many indian’s did they enslave to build this…
You have mispell word: WARSZAWA not WARSAWA please correct it.
Hem hem, the Warsaw radio tower collapsed in 1991.
Wow, I wanna go there!
There is too much oil in that region. It will cause the building to start fire and collapse like WTC 7.
Very nice building, but i dare not live there, terrifed of heights.
Good luck on selling that office space.
Now an American airplane full of muslims should fly inti it and knock it down.
Wait until we crash that tower down. Christ be praised we will have revenge on all muslims and cast them into fire.
I hope you don’t wonder where your $4 a gallon is going.
wow crusadex.

You should try it… lose some anger!

Wow all I can say was Dubai is really pretty, stunning and mysterious.. I was wondering how many wonders are they going to create =) I was really amazed at what they can do..
They’re using indian and chinese slaves to build everything with oil money. Don’t ever support Dubai. That’s just wrong.
The Warsawa radio mast collapsed in 1991. So the builders of the Burj did not need to try too hard to surpass its height.
that is true… petro-dollars do that…
To bad Dubai is running out of oil, that is why they are trying to switch their economy over to tourism. It’s funny that all of you hating them just for being proactive something that the US should take notes on.
I’ve never seen a building that tall before.
“GOOD JOB”!!!!!
Wow, That is fantastic. CrusadeX Dubai is a rich country who doesn’t want our American dollars, according to a friend of mine who had port there in the Navy a year or so ago. In fact his exact words were. We don’t need your dirty American dollars here, you kill Iraqi children. And his response was “Yea, and we kill Iraqi adults to”
sorry to tell you but that building is mainly paid for with diamond money not oil
most of all the diamond dealers and office’s will be in that building and i have been to Dubai and later will actually visit that building for work

That’s an awfully big target… Perfect.
The good:
Huge malls, beach, plenty of crap to boast about (they are pretty much aiming for the “largest” title in every category - theme parks to mosques)
The bad:
Expensive as hell, too hot, internet blows.
Nice place to visit, sucks living here. And btw, the Burj is supposedly “terrorist-proof”, but I find that hard to believe.
Who gives a rats ass about Dubai anyway? Woo-woo good for them
Like others have said, the Warsaw radio tower collapsed in 1991, making your present-tense usage of it incorrect.
The current tallest completed structure in the world, and the previous record holder before the Burj Dubai, is the KVLY TV Tower in Blanchard, North Dakota.
Oh come on. Stop with the negative comments. Who cares where it is. Its great architecture. quit moaning.
Would be nice to visit there!
sounds like the ultimate compensating for a small wiener… couldn’t they just buy corvettes?
Is that a bullseye in the 82nd window?

Learn to detect sarcasm, people. CrusaderX’s comment made me literally LOL.
How can you not see he’s just mocking the speak your would here from muslim extremists?
Its a Beauty…ave been there..seen it all and left it there
Notice how the World Trade Center towers
are so blatantly missing from the tower
height comparison. They should have put
a not there saying: We destroyed these
towers of the infidels, the same infidels
whose purchase of Middle East oil PAID for
the Burj Dubai. Did they really think that
that act would not provoke us to invade
one of the countries in the region? Believe
me, our large presence there is FOREVER right next
door to Iran in case they get any ideas.
An amazing tower..I love it!..Who is this crusadex leaving these disgusting comments about crashing a plane into it…..Man… get a life here on earth..psycho!

Cuando esté en ruinas va a ser eplendida .
Vaya derroche de hormigón mas absurdo.
InTheBullsEye: The height comparison was made by an Australian, not an Arab. Afghanistan is not in the region, it’s Central Asia, at least I assume that’s who you meant as they were the ones involved in 9/11. And for the record, less than 10% of Dubai’s money comes from their fairly tiny oil deposits, the rest is from commodities traded through the city and an increasing amount from tourism. But the inane ramblings and indeed my response to them are hardly on topic for this post; for which I apologise.
to all you sad f…ers out there dubai is the place and the best in the world, i no i go every year,and the arabs are so freindly,and very nice ,,so go look your selfand see or shut the fu.. up ok there not all sick muslims,only some,and some of you sound sick too,,,,,,
You Americans are such a bunch of wankers. Your towers are lying on the ground and theirs is touching the sky. fucking deal with it. You got what was coming to you.
The maker of this web site is just trying to share his love for this crown of human achievment and you ignorant american bastards are trying to use it as a tool to heal you gaping wounds. Do you think that no americans were involved with the design and building of this masterpiece. No wonder the world hates you.

how many stories has it-i mean burj dubai
Hey….wow…a lot of fighting words on this site….
anyway, watch out world…..we (Canada) had one of the tallest structures in the world for years and once all the Jones are done with this rash of building….Montreal has something up it’s sleeve to give the title back to Canada and North America…it will be amazing and make Dubai and Kuwait look like they came out of a tub of cold water! lol……watch for it in 2018..plans are underway with private sector and the government of Canada…don’t forget, we have oil and water and the USA as our buddy !!!!!!!!!
Uhh dude, Montreal has a height limit of a little over 200 metres. I assume you’re joking though as this is the city that couldn’t even build a little stadium properly…
well done mate you tell him dreamer dubai done it and all you yanks just cant live with it lol you just have to be bigger and better but noway,,,now dubai is tops.
The Holy Prophet of Islam (May the peace and blessings of God be upon him) had warned that when people begin competing to build tall buildings in the desert, the end of times is near.
The massengar Of Allah (PBUH) had warned that when people begin competing to build in the soil the end of time is near
Haha, it is funny hearing some ppl saying that this is what they are doing with their gas money, well if u get over your stupidity u will realize that your whole western civilization was built on stealing third world countries riches and yeah! one more thing, Dubai has only a tiny reserve of oil, much much less that that in the US for example.
thay can thank the bush family for the money to build this towers…. Did you all every ask youself one question. Y was the world trade center Bomed once during the First G. “BUSH” was in office and then nothing for 8 years after that. Than GWBush is in office and they try again and succed. has any on paide attention!!!!!! And now there is no tallest building in the US OF A However they do….HUMMMMM
