Unlike his previous free-climbing experiences, due to the requirements of the host party, Robert used ropes and some special devices for this climb of the Burj Khalifa. Because the central axis position of the Burj Khalifa is very smooth, it also slowed down Robert's "climbing speed", but eventually he still successfully reached the top. According to media reports, on the 28th, the 49-year-old French climber Alain Robert started climbing the world's tallest building today - the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, UAE, and successfully reached the summit at dusk on the 28th local time. It is understood that the Burj Khalifa was originally named the Dubai Tower. This skyscraper has 160 floors and a total height of 828 meters, making it the first building in human history to exceed a height of 800 meters.
