The Burj Khalifa is a skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It is the world's tallest structure, with a total height of 828 m (2,716.54 feet) and a roof height of 830 m.
History[]
This Burj Khalifa was originally built on January 4, 2010. The building, at the time, was built by structural engineer Bill Baker, Adrian Smith, Skidmore, and Owings & Merrill. The building was named for the former president of the UAE, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
During the course of the 2016 invasion, the Harvester mothership's extreme gravitational pull over Dubai had uplifted the Burj Khalifa, along with other buildings and infrastructures across the city. The Burj Khalifa became one of many buildings to have crashed over the European continent once the massive ship reached there; in which it fell directly over London and crashed into the London Eye.
