Remember my post named Burj Khalifa [Burj Dubai, برج خليفة, Khalifa Tower]? Ever wondered who worked on the top level crane of the highest tower of the world? I'm not sure if it's the truth, but in one of the email forwards I've received, it's mentioned that he's a lucky and fearless Indian named Babu Sassi. In that email, I've received a photo of the tower under construction showing the position of the crane. The view is just breathtaking leaving apart the controversy :) Enjoy the view.
Note: I don't claim copyright of the following photo.
Wow....
ReplyDeletePride of India..!!!!! Question is that - why Indian Government not announced any Medal yet for such Indian?
ReplyDeletesorry this is not true because the last man who done this job his name is sher dil khan he is from pakistan and pathan
DeleteLooks like nobody knows the truth. All are saying what they have heard, including me.

ReplyDeleteGreat! Nice to find you Sreeju!
DeleteHe is not Indian for your kind information. He was a Pakistani - Mr Sher Khan.
ReplyDeletePlease tell Mr Sher Khan to comment here, just like Mr Sreeju Kolapurath who claims to be that crane operator.
DeleteSix operators worked on top cranes.Sreeju-India,Sher Khan-pakistan and four Malesians-Juli ,Gunato,Abdul Salam and Thoufeeq,Iam regarding my friends with pleasure.
ReplyDeleteNow that's a true sport
DeleteThis is wrong post - Go to youtube and check yourself - The crane operator was from Pakistan and his name was Muhammad Sher Khan . He operated the crane all the way. Govt of Dubai rewarded him and his family with the nationality of UAE and Passport.
ReplyDeleteI don't feel a need to answer this as I have mentioned above that this is not my own creation, but from an email forward. However, just repeating what Sreeju has mentioned above…
DeleteSix operators worked on top cranes. Sreeju-India, Sher Khan-Pakistan and four Malesians - Juli, Gunato, Abdul Salam and Thoufeeq. I am regarding my friends with pleasure.
