I've been roaming YouTube and I've seen this design by this guy called Eugine Tsui, his design would surpass the height of the Burj by a considerable amount, infact his design proposes A tower called the Ultima tower, which is about TWO MILES tall!
The design however does not seem compatible with the stresses and strains needed for the tower, also another thought is that at the top of the tower, life would not be sustainable at the top without a oxygen feed to the floors.
In addition, Eugine has also designed a strange conception called the eye in the sky tower, this is a 600m observation deck(I think) that is made of steel and has a lean, that's just a disaster waiting to happen.
I don't know how to inset pictures so just search for images for the towers.
