TravelTranscript
00:00The special thing about their cappuccino is that it has a 24 karat gold layer on top
00:08A fountain show is going on at the side of Burj Khalifa
00:11and the top part of it is covered in clouds
00:14But today, we plan to go up to the top
00:17Let's see how high we can actually go
00:19As far as I remember, when I came here 10 years ago, they don't allow you to go very high
00:24Only up to the 124th floor is allowed
00:27But let's see
00:28And if you're wondering which hotel has the best view of Burj Khalifa and the skyline
00:34then the name of this hotel is Address Downtown
00:37You can see the best view of Burj Khalifa from here
00:41Welcome to Burj Khalifa
00:44There is the line
00:46As always, we didn't buy a ticket beforehand
00:48So now, we have to wait in a long line
00:51Here, the line doesn't seem that long
00:53No, it seems okay
00:55Wow! What a cool room this is!
01:01I feel like I just entered an escape room or something
01:06Can I see your VIP?
01:08VIP!
01:10Going up is actually very expensive
01:12It is more expensive than I had imagined
01:14They said that we can go up to three levels- 124, 148 and 154
01:18124 is sold out. We can't go up to it right now
01:22But the price is 224 Dirhams, which is around 50 Euros. It is quite expensive
01:27There were two prices in 148
01:30If we had gone at night, it would have been cheaper- 379
01:32But if we go now, it is 533
01:35And we chose this
01:36We could have gone up to 154, but the price would have increased further- 749
01:41So we chose this. But this is also a VIP category
01:45That is why we have come to this VIP room
01:52🎶Music🎶
02:13This was inaugurated in 2010
02:16This lift... You can see what floor the lift is on
02:20Wow!
02:21And the seconds!
02:22And meters!
02:24Yeah! Crazy!
02:25This lift will take you to level 1 to 5
02:29Speed of this elevator is 9 meters per second
02:32Oh!
02:34Wow! It has to be so good!
02:38I already feel it in my ears
02:40Yeah!
02:4020...
02:4230...
02:44We are reaching higher than the Taipei Tower
02:49🎶Music🎶
03:03Which floor do we have to go to? There are so many buttons here
03:06This is the second lift. It takes me from level 124 to 154
03:12Imagine someone leans against it accidentally and it presses all the buttons
03:17No, don't even joke about it. Don't even joke about it. Go ahead
03:20🎶Music🎶
03:21I pressed it!
03:22I didn't want to press it
03:24🎶Music🎶
03:30Oh no! It's all cloudy
03:32Did you hear that? This is my fault!
03:35No, brother! It's my fault!
03:36No, no! It's my fault!
03:37No, no! It's my fault!
03:38🎶Music🎶
03:47Wow!
03:49Oh wow!
03:51If we fall, we'll fall on that platform which is still 20 floors below
03:56I mean, you're still dying falling 20 floors
04:00Uh oh!
04:02Uh oh!
04:04Uh oh!
04:06We are actually in the open air
04:10There's nothing here. It's up there
04:13These railings have been extended to this point
04:18I can't do skydiving
04:20What?
04:21I just realized I can't do skydiving
04:23Why not?
04:23It's so high
04:24It's so high that it doesn't even feel real
04:28It is not. But if I now have to jump, I can't do it
04:31No, I can jump
04:33I can jump from here easily
04:35Why not?
04:37From here, the building doesn't seem like there's much left up there
04:41But actually, they've said that there are 200 floors in Burj Khalifa
04:46But the 30-40 floors above are for technical purposes
04:49So, there's not much left up there
04:51Looking at it from here, it seems like you're looking at it from Google Maps
04:55Wow! I spotted a human from this height
04:58Of course!
05:00I spotted people moving
05:02They look like ants from here
05:04Oh yeah! It's not that hard to spot
05:08Actually, we just realized that this glass panel is open from here
05:13So, we can take our hands out
05:16This side is very cloudy because of the cloud, I think
05:21It's very cloudy because of the cloud, I think
05:23I don't feel scared standing here at all
05:26because of the huge barriers that are built here
05:29and the option of taking out your hands is also such a good option
05:34So, it's a good experience but I'm not worried about the fear
05:40Although, Julie is scared of skydiving
05:43When she saw things from this height, she can see that skydiving can be such an experience
05:50Uh-oh! The clouds are coming
05:52No, they are really coming
05:54Oh, they're so fast moving!
05:55Yeah, you can see it's like...
05:57Normally, we're on this mountain
05:59Yep!
06:01They're good from the other side also
06:03Oh!
06:13They've made a very nice lounge on the other side
06:18And on this side, there's not a balcony but a glass
06:22The view from here is not that exciting because of the glass
06:27But this is very interesting. There's an infinity pool here
06:30which is so low
06:32That's why it looks high
06:34You can get snacks on this floor as well
06:36There's a date and muffins
06:38All are extremely sweet
06:42Below this, on the 122nd floor, there's a very interesting restaurant
06:46called Atmosphere, where we were invited
06:50Oh, wow!
06:52What is that?
06:54It's dry ice, I think
06:56Do you remember the science experiment we did in school?
06:58Oh, it's warm
07:00You're right. It is warm
07:02What happens if you close all those spaces?
07:06This is their first course of study
07:10It's very interesting
07:12It's very interesting
07:14It's very interesting
07:16It's very interesting
07:18It's their first course, their starter course
07:20Before this, they had given us a welcome thing
07:48Wow!
07:56Wow!
07:58That was a drink. I thought that was the main course
08:00I've fallen here due to the smoke
08:04It's all fog
08:06You can even see the view from the toilet here
08:12This is Burj Khalifa's 124th floor
08:18Toilet
08:28This is the last course, right?
08:30Yes
08:32Finally
08:44Thank you
08:46The special thing about this is that it has a 24 karat gold layer on top
08:52Gold
09:04And there is no taste of gold
09:08Actually, there is no taste of gold
09:10It doesn't taste anything
09:12And this is caramelized sugar
09:14Caramelized sugar. There is a layer of gold on this as well
09:16because my thumb is made entirely of gold
09:19Wow!
09:24What have we collected inside?
09:28Oh my God, your teeth look gold
09:40This is actually the seal
09:43which has kept us alive
09:45If you lean on this glass too much, it might break
09:50and the whole glass will fall and you'll fall down
09:53But actually, I'm not too scared sitting here
09:57because it's at such a height that it feels like you're looking down from an aeroplane
10:02If it was at a lower height, I would have been more scared
10:05I mean, whatever
10:07Even Julie is not scared. Are you scared?
10:09Not right now because it's very solid here
10:11and it's not tilting forward like some other skyscrapers I've seen
10:15Yeah, that's true
10:16Like Malaysia was worse. It was amazing
10:18Yeah, that's true
10:19Because somehow it had the tilted glass
10:21So, we're on the lower floor now. We're on 125
10:24and we can see the observation deck on 124
10:42It doesn't even seem believable
10:44No!
10:45There's also a virtual reality experience here
10:48which can be done
10:50While exiting, there are a lot of good facts and information here
10:55What were the difficulties in building this tower?
10:58When was it built?
10:59What challenges did they have to face?
11:02There are a total of 24,000 windows in Burj Khalifa
11:06which take three months to clean
11:10An interesting fact is that if you look at the entire Burj Khalifa from the top,
11:14it is in the shape of a flower
11:16One here, one here and the third one there
11:18In these models, you can see the top view of this
11:23It looks like a flower
11:25So, how did you like it?
11:26It was good!
11:28Also, there's not much of a difference between 124 and 148
11:31If you want to go, you can go to 124, I think
11:34And one more tip, when you come here,
11:36make sure the weather is clear
11:39It's better to come when the sky is blue
11:42Otherwise, the clouds will go up and you won't get such a good experience
11:47All the gold from the Bank of Spain
11:52What's your name? Tell us your name
11:54My name is Nihar, I'm from Hyderabad, India
11:57And you?
11:58My name is Umar and I'm from Hyderabad, India
12:01How are you feeling? Have you been to Burj Khalifa?
12:03No, we were planning to go but haven't gone yet
12:06What?
12:07124?
12:15I thought it wasn't allowed
12:16Thank you
12:22Your reviews are always good
12:24Okay, thank you
12:25Can I take a picture with you if you don't mind?
12:26Sure, you can
12:27Only with a mask, I guess
12:30One security guard was having a big problem
12:32He was taking pictures of us
12:34He was saying that it's not allowed to do this here
12:36Wear a mask
12:37After wearing a mask, he was asking who I am
12:39But if four friends take a picture together, it will still be the same
12:43So, I don't think it's a big deal
12:45And the interesting thing is that there was another security guard there
12:48who recognized me again and wanted to take a picture with me again
12:52And he said, no problem, we can take a picture
12:55But again, the previous security guard had a problem with that
13:14Five times in a week, at 7.45 pm
13:18There's a laser show in Burj Khalifa
13:21Don't forget to watch it when you come here
13:25Wow!
13:36Oh, wow!
13:38So nice!
13:42To be honest, it looks better on camera than in real life
13:46No, it looks great in real life. Better than on camera
13:49Really?
13:50I feel like because there's reflections coming of the light
13:54constantly, that's why I feel like it's better on the camera
14:00Now, we've left Downtown Dubai and come to Palm Island
14:04in a hotel that was my childhood dream to stay in
14:24Thank you for watching!
