Joe McNally likes to take his camera where relatively few professional photographers have been before. He recently made it to the very top of the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. He took stunning photos from the highest point of tower, 822.96 Meter high (2,700 Feet) .
McNally took the elevators to the 163rd floor, then he climbed the stairs for about 91.44 Meters (300 feet) to reach the tower section of the building. And then again, he put on a safety harness and climbed straight up a ladder for another 137.16 Meters (450 feet) inside a narrow tube.
The photo below was posted by McNally back in March, on Instagram, and it became popular on the web.
An amazing shot of Jonny Salvador, who works at Burj Khalifa as a high climbing specialist for the buildings maintenance department.

A few of these pictures you see here will play tricks on your eyes, some are tricky pictures that need a second glance and some are just plain funny. Take a look!
