synopsis

This is the story of the tallest tower ever built, introducing you to the thrills surrounding this historic landmark: how it was built, and the people who live and work inside the building. It is a journey filled with emotions from the stirring unveiling of the building; to the spectacular complexities of the building being maintained, the adrenaline rush as workers hang hundreds of metres above ground, cleaning windows; the grand opening of the world's highest restaurant, Atmosphere; and an insight into the safety procedures of the tower and an exciting evacuation drill.
