Really Amazing...
Look at the edge ( uppermost right corner ) of the picture , you can almost see the turn of the earth
The persons who are working on the upper most Girders can see the 'ROTATION OF EARTH'
So terrifying...

AMAZING building and engineering marvel no doubt, but the curve is just the camera lens. Planes flying at 40,000 feet cannot see the earth's curvature.
It's "Curvature", not "rotation"
Well excuse me for saying so but YOU CAN notice (not like that wide angle lens photo) the curvature of the earth from a regular building, it is an extremely open curvature, but then again, our eyes are wide angle lenses so I guess it is also an optical illusion.
But the fact remains WE CAN see it, even if it is impossible for us.
:P :D
beauuuuuuutiful
LOL BANKRUPT DUBAI
If any of you are wondering why these Arabs have a hard on for tall buildings; its to do with their Koran.
It talks about the end of the world with an appearance of God's messenger of the covenant from a tall building/height.
TEH MOAR U NO!
Lool that's absulitly incorrect, Qura'an doesn't say that, please refer the page number on which that is said!
However, prophet Mohamed said, and that has nothing with Qura'an, "one of the signs of gudgment day is when Arabs start building tall buildings" and that was 1400 years ago when Arabs used to live in tents and small houses made from mud.
