U can see some Normal sized sky Scrapers to the left and right of the tower.

U can see cranes on the tower. Those cranes are Gigantic in size, take a look at the GIANT cranes in comparison to the tower.

the United Arab Emirates are Idiots... they are competing with America for the biggest Idiot Title.


As per my claim, I have no idea about figures, I just read that on a new site.

Probably a small city.
