For anyone like me with an irrational fear of elevators this would have to be one of your worst nightmares. The worlds tallest tower, the half-mile high Burj Khalifa in Dubai boasts a lift which takes you to the observation deck for stunning views that will both take your breath away and stop your heart as well. I don’t think there is any amount of money I would take to set one foot inside that lift…
At 124 floors up from the ground the lift malfunctioned, the lights went out and it started to fall – they had to rescue the occupants by getting a ladder to them though the shaft. I’ll bet they all needed clean underwear afterwards…
