What's Inside of the Burj Khalifa?

The Burj Khalifa is currently the tallest building in the world! (as of 2018) This video shows you all about it - surrounding landscape, shape of the building, what the floors are used for, elevator system, and comparisons to other tall buildings.

[@Amigps01]

Wait so basically all of the tip is just a fancy spire??? That’s cheating then man.

[@JaredOwen]

haha - yeah...

[@jaffacalling53]

Most skyscrapers cheat with spires. This goes all the way back to the 30s when the Chrysler Building "cheated" its way to being the world's tallest with a secret spire that was jacked up over the course of a few hours.

[@nolualai]

I am learning english and I absolutly don't understand the word " sbire "

[@HoveringAboveMyself]

@@jaffacalling53 well yeah, but there's a point when it just seems dumb, Chrysler is an obvious offender but it doesn't even make it into the top ten with its 67m spire, a 244m tall one is pushing it imo, sadly it's not going to stop there, the planned 1000m tall Jedda tower is going to have a 370m spire

[@maunster3414]

Nolual, 'spire'. Examples: A top part or point that tapers upward; a pinnacle. A structure or formation, such as a steeple, that tapers to a point at the top. A slender, tapering part, such as a newly sprouting blade of grass.

Ilay A Well most towers and buildings usually have a spire including the one that is planned to beat burj khalifa with a 300+ meter spire..

The building that's gonna be the second tallest one soon (somewhere in Malaysia) has almost one-third to half of it's height as a spire. Burj Khalifa just pales in comparison with regards to cheating.

As a skyscraper enthusiast and someone who had the pleasure to go to BK Sky back in September of 2015, what a nice video ;). Only super minor quip is that you say you wouldn't want the building to sway, so it's aerodynamic. But actually you do want a bit of sway to absorb forces. But of course I know what you meant ;).

You are correct! I probably should have gone into a little more detail on that - I believe it sways as much as 6ft at the top

[@tonytalks9070]

Burn would probably still come out on top for now then, because no other building right now has 168 floors. The top floor end at like 2100 feet in the air and the next tallest building is about 2028 feet tall. So it is not really a cheat with the spire. Now, the next tallest building (currently under construction) is expected to have about 220 floors.
