Will Smith reveals what it took to scale Burj Khalifa in new video

Hollywood star Will Smith is taking his fitness journey to the next level, with the latest video from his YouTube fitness series documenting how he scaled to the top of the iconic Burj Khalifa.

While few, including Dubai Crown Prince His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum have done it before, this is possibly the first time you'd get a glimpse of the behind the scenes. 

The video shows the 53-year-old star walking up the 160 floors as a fitness test, before being handed a safety harness and a camera to document his journey right to the very top.
