In a 2012 episode of the BBC series >Supersized Earth, science reporter Dallas Campbell went on location to join a team of men as they cleaned the extraordinarily high windows of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, UAE, the tallest man-made building on Earth.

It's almost inconceivable how high these windows are. I'm 60 meters above the next platform below, which is itself 600 meters above the ground. Higher than the previous world's tallest building. At this height, if I dropped anything, I could do serious damage.
