A look at the Kingdom Tower, a new skyscraper in Saudia Arabia that will be the tallest in the world.

Oh boy...disaster movies are going to have a field day with that .

So now,if its a mile high ,how long does it take to drive one mile ,as we can assume an elevator goes much slower than a car.
It will take many minutes,to get to the top,and I'm wondering if people will need oxygen masks at that height ?
Seems fairly impractical on some levels.
Some developers is over compensating for something...hmmm....:)

I hope the top floor rentals come with a lifetime supply of motion sickness pills!
