Aoife O' Dowd commented on Facebook: "I wanna go to Dubai just for this!!"

The stunt was part of the launch of the "XLine" zip-line ride by XDubai that runs extreme sport activities in Dubai. "It was Great to have @faz3 as our first guest to try the #XLine in#DownTownDubai! Follow us to find out how you could be#next!," the company posted on Instagram on Sunday evening.

The video of Shaikh Hamdan riding a zip-line suspended above Downtown Dubai, with Burj Khalifa in the background, was posted on his Instagram page on Saturday evening.It showed the adventurous Crown Prince strapped in a safety harness zipping down the wire over the Dubai Fountain. The15-second long video captured his slide down from a tower overlooking the Burj Khalifa to the premises of The Dubai Mall.
