At least that is what Nasr Al Niyadi and his trainer Omar Al Hegelan did by jumping 2,205ft from the 160th floor of the world’s tallest building, Burj Khalifa, in Dubai. But, the only difference was that these two gentlemen are expert sky divers. So, don’t even try anything remotely stupid, even if it was jumping from 2nd floor of the building unless under experts. This expert sky driver has set a new world record by base jumping from an astounding height. Well, if I say jumping, then it wasn’t the only thing, both Nasr and his trainer made a descent at the approximate speed of 137 mph in under one and a half minute and to top it all they both made a flawless landing. Wow, just the thought gives me an immense adrenaline rush, imagine these dudes, they must have loved it.
P.S. there is a video for you at the end of this, so that you can catch the missing action.
Al Niyadi was also one of the fifteen base jumpers who set the world record in base jumping off the Petronas Towers. He goes on to describe his this experience as the best ever.
He says, “When we were at the top of the building I was thinking this is crazy. I was a little nervous but I wanted to jump from the highest tower in the world to record an achievement for my family and for my country. As soon as we reached the ground I looked up and just thought wow. I have completed over 2,700 jumps but this was the most amazing”.
