First Suicide from World's Tallest Building

A man jumped to his death Tuesday from Dubai's 160-story Burj Khalifa tower, the world's tallest building. He reportedly jumped from the 147th floor and landed on a terrace on the 108th floor. It's the first Burj Khalifa suicide. 

The deceased man was reportedly upset because his employer refused a time-off request. Wow.
