On the 124th floor of the world's tallest tower, AC Milan midfielder Clarence Seedorf performed the ultimate high jinks by juggling a ball at a sponsor's promotional event.

On a special pitch set up on the observation deck of the 828-meter tall (2,717-foot) Burj Khalifa, Seedorf and the rest of his teammates also posed for photos after training earlier Thursday at Mamzar Beach.

Milan is spending the Serie A winter break in the United Arab Emirates and is scheduled to play Sunday against local club Al Ahli, which is led by former Italy captain Fabio Cannavaro.

The Burj Khalifa was officially opened on Jan. 4.
