S130Z Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I have come to terms that I frequently stay on HybridZ untill about 1am every night(morning to get tech). As I was also lerking on google I found this, The Dubai Skyscraper. Although this is a rendering, it takes a large photo to really see whats going on. All I have to say is WOW. It must take a lot to complete such a task. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue72 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 That's nothing. Google around for a bit and find the videos of the two guys who recently succeeded in base jumping the Burj Dubai. That's something crazy. Oh, and since I'm on Mountain Standard Time it's only 10:00 p.m. here. Here's a link to the video: http://current.com/items/89546563/world_record_base_jump.htm?xid=55 They're jumping illegally from around 2000 feet up the world's tallest building.
