Giant Umbrella Protects World’s Tallest Skyscraper Burj Khalifa From Rain
BURJ KHALIFA – World’s tallest skyscraper Burj Khalifa ‘splits open’ to reveal a giant umbrella.
Burj Khalifa is a skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It is known for being the world’s tallest building.
A video showing the building split open to produce an umbrella and shielding itself from the rain has gone viral after the Crown Prince of Dubai Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, posted it on social media on Tuesday.
Sheikh Hamdan, who goes by the alias Fazza on Instagram, has 15 million followers who find the video amusing and have praised it as “amazing” and “so clever.”
In the caption of the post, he wrote: “It’s that time of year again.”

The computer-generated imagery (CGI) video was made as a part of the city’s Dubai Destinations promotional campaign, which has recently generated a number of spectacular images and videos that have gained widespread popularity.
Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed, the head of the Dubai Media Council, revealed the plan in December of the previous year.
“The Dubai Destinations initiative is a tribute to Dubai’s culture of hospitality and its open and inclusive outlook. With a wealth of creative content from diverse sources, this initiative will open many windows into Dubai’s uniqueness as a destination,” he said.
Another creative campaign by Dubai Destinations, featuring some of the emirate’s most well-known sights taken over by enormous pool inflatables, was shared by Sheikh Hamdan in July.
Other examples of the impressive video editing include a huge pink flamingo ring sliding down from the top of the Burj Khalifa, a large doughnut gently going through Dubai Frame, and a huge rubber duck in front of Ain Dubai.
Sheikh Hamdan frequently posts pictures and videos of his home city as well as glimpses from his travels, family life, and sporting endeavors on social media.
