Petrified by heights? You can still experience what it's like to jump from the tallest building in the world and soar.
A new video released by XDubai, follows Fred Fugen and Vince Reffet taking a giant leap from the pinnacle of the 828-metre-high Burj Khalifa - and "glide like birds though the air, displaying bravery, skill and team spirit."
BASE jumping is parachuting or wingsuit flying from a fixed structure or cliff. BASE stands for four categories of fixed objects from which one can jump: buildings, antennas, spans (bridges), and earth (cliffs).
The perfect adrenaline rush for an adventure junkie...
