If there is one thing that Tom Cruise and the Mission: Impossible franchise has brought us it’s spectacular stunts and the latest offering, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol is no exception. As the new behind-the-scenes feature shows, the centre piece of this movie is a breathtaking climb up the Burj Khalifa skyscraper in Dubai, which at approximately 2,723 feet tall makes it the tallest building in the world.
