What's it like to have your cup of coffee at 250 metres above the famed Dubai skyline?
Well, nothing short of spectacular.
A new video posted by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai's Crown Prince and Chairman of the Executive Council, shows him taking a breathtaking spin on the world's largest observation wheel - Ain Dubai.
Only, he isn't seated inside the cabin, but on top of it.

Sheikh Hamdan also posted a picture with the technicians who helped him complete the ride safely, with the caption: "A harness and a blue sky".
Ain Dubai officially opened its doors to the public on Thursday, with a host of exciting celebratory events to mark the occasion.
