Reverse the Order

Awesome Architecture

The Burj Khalifa is twice as tall as the Empire State Building and towers above the City of Dubai. This "world's tallest building" is nothing short of an architectural masterpiece. And to think it is right on the ocean and will have to withstand all the maritime winds and foul weather is truly amazing. As one whom has dabbled in construction work, I can only begin to comprehend what went into building this monumental structure. Its really beyond me to imagine it.

With that I would say, these workers pictured below must have nerves of steel! The title of the picture was "The Last Panel". Boy! ... the pucker factor must have been high that day. Those yellow safety belts might have been to keep them from floating off into space instead of falling to the ground. And I'm surprised they didn't need supplemental oxygen up there.






















There is a restaurant on the top floor being advertised. I would think the view is quite good. The question I have is, "Could I get over a queezy stomach to enjoy a meal up there"? AND ... can I see the Space Shuttle's docking station from my table?
