Talk About An Ad That’s Almost “Out Of This World!”
Wow. Not much more to say except check out this incredible video from Emerites Air….
Of course, you ask yourself: is it real?
Well, it is! This was shot from the top of the Burj Khalifa tower in Dubai!
This ad is airing in the UK, and talk about a “conversation piece!”
Here’s their “behind the scenes” video showing how it is done!
WOW!
I love this short “behind the scenes” video, because in a world with so much digital effects work, it’s cool to see them actually do this!
That said, if you don’t like heights, this certainly isn’t for you…there are places well above the earth’s surface you can hike to, climb up, or even in one case I found, be “lifted” up to your dinner:
Yes, you can eat dinner high above ground – oh, and what if you have to use the bathroom?
All that is explained in my story here!
I also shared our “sky high” adventure in Barcelona, where a tram takes you above the city!
We had a blast riding this, and I shot some video so you can see for yourself – just click on my story here!

Impressive, but, I could hardly watch it — fear of heights through the computer screen. Yikes!

I can’t watch the YT video as the connection here is not good enough, but that picture of the woman is quite startling. Thanks for sharing, John.

I wonder what her background is. I have to imagine she had some experience with heights before this. Incredible!

I would imagine Pete, although perhaps it was an “anything for the role” mindset! Thanks for commenting, always great to hear from you!

I would be terrified. She appears calm. The view is breathtaking.

I haven’t seen that ad, but I don’t watch much commercial TV. It is a breathtaking view, and even with all those safety features, the actress is incredibly brave. I am not that scared of heights, but I would be hesitant to do that. Thanks for showing the behind the scenes, John. I would never have believed it was real otherwise.
Best wishes, Pete.
