Burj Khalifa

The world's tallest building opened in Dubai.

The Burj Khalifa is 2,716 feet high, breaking Tapei 101's long standing record and even the CN Tower in Canada's record as the tallest man made structures.

The building is named after the leader of Abu Dhabi, who funnily enough paid some money to Dubai who owe £80 bn in the current credit crisis.

It begs the question of just how high engineering can go?
