Two men jumped from the world's tallest building and got it all on film
Back in May, two thrillseekers sneaked into the Burj Dubai — currently the tallest building in the world even though it's not finished yet — and set the world base jumping record (illegally). The footage of the jump from the top is worth a watch by itself, but the story of the pair's experience makes it even better. It's the kind of stunt reminiscent of high-wire walker Philippe Petit, who infiltrated New York City's World Trade Center towers so he could walk on a rope between the two.

French morons.

One guy sounded English or Australian.

for the life of me i will never understand this hatred of the french. they get the kind of animosity from people in the US that u'ld expect given to a nation that aimed a missile at the US.

that was awesome
