EXCLUSIVE pictures of the Burj Dubai - the world's tallest skyscraper
**Important**
MUST CREDIT PICTURES BY DAVID HOBCOTE/REX FEATURES
The Burj Dubai is already the tallest man-made structure on Earth, despite being incomplete.
And these rare and exclusive images by photographer David Hobcote show the jaw-dropping scale of the project.
Mr Hobcote took the pictures from a helicopter he had personally chartered as a treat for his son. And his stunning images could be the last unofficial pictures as officials are expected to introduce a 3-mile no-fly zone as a precaution against terrorism.
Developers are keeping the final height of the tower a secret due to competition from other buildings under construction or proposed; however, figures released by a contractor on the project have suggested a height of around 818m (2,684 ft) - although it could be anything up to 950m (3,117 ft).
