    • +Fuckification Most time zones differ by 30 mins. People at the top of burj khalifa experience sunset 2 mins after people at the base. To experience the sunset 30 mins after the base the building would have to be 15 times its current height. It currently stands at 2722 ft. 15 times that would be 40,830 ft.
