Sorry, not a true optical illusion this time, but I really had to post this amazing set of images. What’s going on here, is that this is the World’s highest tennis court. The photos are taken when Andre Agassi and the world No. 1, Roger Federer were shooting a commercial for Dubai Duty Free Men’s open. They were having friendly fight on the tennis court of Burj Al Arab in Dubai. You may notice a security mesh was preventing possible falls. Jump inside this article for more of these.

That fantastic, not sure if i would want to stick my life on the line playing on that thing though.
thats awsome… although im 99% sure that that is a helecopter landing pad made to look like a tennis court for the commercial. thats intence though.
what if a tennis ball falls off and kills someone?
It IS a landing pad. But the costs for the commercial will cope a life…
There is no way a falling tennis ball could kill someone. It’s mass to volume ratio and wind resistance would not allow it to be traveling at lethal speeds, it would be traveling around 70 mph.
i dont think anyone stupid enough would jump of a high tennis court to get a stupid ball
It’s on the Burj al-Arab Tower in Dubai. I think it’s a landing pad.
ive got the video clip of that but not the commercial one
that is true that it is a real tennis court its not a landing pad.check on google it will show it as the tallest tennis court in the world no helicopter landing pad
I know this place. I studied it. It is the United Arab Emitries. They are frigin rich.
tHIS IS NOT AN ILLUSION!!!Its in the world recordb books for tallest hotel
what if they fell and then landed on someone and died i don’t think that is real safe not having a fence around it.
how could u play that high up it looks like it would be way to windy
It is real everyone, I have it in my Guiness book of world records 2007 for the highest tennis court.
Pretty cool though :D
its a heli pad that gets converted for the rich players to play on
whatll happen to the ball!!!
I”M SCARED OF HEIGHTS!
It is an actual landing pad.
See:
Landing Pad
Its not gonna kill anyone
ive been here
the hotels made on an island
the ball would just fall into the water
This court would have been perfect to set a record for the longest in air lob record…..
i realy don’t understand why there isn’t a roof ore something there… and they should’vr build the field straight above the water.
that is a landing pad ive been to that hotel and i use to live near there
It would totally suck to lose a tennis ball over the edge!!
OMG sum of u r so stupid! why would they make it look like a tennis court if it was a landing pad?
ive played on that court but you have to pay £3000 so i wouldnt but the hotel is really nice inside i stayed in it for 3 weeks
Lol…your right Bravley Onions!
i love lions do you love lions?
i would be scared incase i fell off!! lol
