Greg Sang, Emaar’s director of projects, said the Burj has “refuge floors” at 25- to 30-story intervals that are more fire resistant and have separate air supplies in case of emergency. And its reinforced concrete structure, he said, makes it stronger than steel-frame skyscrapers.

heh

Except UAE has practically NO oil reserves, which is why they rely so heavily on tourism. I find it funny that they just put up the "tallest building" yet their whole country is about to go under. Dubai is in massive amounts of debt from all the construction in the last five years or so, along with the way the economy has turned and the lack of traveling.

Some right wing rednecks should go blow it up. See how they like it. Teach them to keep their lunatics in check like we do. Sort of.
