World's Tallest

[rcproperty]

Anyone want to spend time cleaning this building???

Soaring 2,717ft into the air above Dubai and with 1,292,500 sq ft of glass to keep **** and span

​

Twelve machines weighing 13 tons carry up to 36 cleaners, who use ordinary soapy water to wash down the Burj's 24,830 reflective windows in a process that takes three months from top to bottom.

From my experience of the Empire State and the Rockerfeller Building in NY I would say you have absolutely no sense of height when you are that high. You would fill your pants more five stories up than you would up there.

The Rock has just plain glass screens between you and the drop yet people walk right up to them and even lean against them, you don't see anyone freaking out or backing away.

Oh yes and that famous picture of the men sitting on a girder eating their lunch. That was the Rock. and its 100% genuine. Not a trick photograph in any way. The men really did walk round on the girders like that

I was gonna ask why they still trad sky scrappers, prob to save money/water.

But then I had a really bad thought!!

Cause of H& S(being that high up, especially windy etc) I wouldnt be surpised if they started to automate stuff like that in the next few years.

As in they would incorparate wpf tecnology into the windows itself, and would spray pure water onto the window then drys by itself...??

You never know though the way this world is going!!!!
