Dubai's record-breaking 1,100ft Torch Tower full of expats bursts into horrific flames in chilling echo of the Grenfell Tower disaster - but, unlike London, its wealthy residents make it out alive
- Footage shows fire climbing up the 86-storey The Torch, a residential building popular with expats in Dubai
- Burning debris could be seen spiralling down to ground firefighters desperately attempt to tackle the flames
- Torch Tower is the fifth tallest residential building in the world and stands at more than 330 metres (1,105 ft)
- The same skyscraper was devastated by fire in 2015, with the buildings flammable cladding being blamed
