  • Bring back the twin towers! To my opinion I'd prefer it better than the new ones!

  • nice video!

  • I Am In Toronto, And Cn Tower Is A Skyscraper Guys. I Know. Its In many Resources And Books. I Studied All About It And Got 90%.

  • @Moshi2009Fire15 Sorry, but you were reading false information. It cannot possibly be a skyscraper. The CN tower only has one area for observation and resturaunts and it doesn't have any floors or offices. It counts a free standing structure, but not an actual skyscraper. Saying that the CN tower is a skyscraper is like saying the space needle and stratosphere count as skyscrapers. CN tower is not a skyscraper. Hands down.

  • @Rafathaman94 A Skyscraper Is A Tall Tower/Building/Or Height That Stands Into The Sky That Is Visible From Kilometers, And Kilometers Away.

    The Cn Tower Is Not A Building, But Is The Tallest Free Standing Structure In The World Right Now. And In The Diagrams And Charts On WIKIPEDIA Show That Cn Tower Is The 2nd Right Now As The Tallest Structure. You Are Correct But Thanks. :)

  • @Moshi2009Fire15 Wrong again. It's far from the largest free standind structure in the world. There are many TV towers and antennas taller than it including the skyscrapers Burj Dubai and the Abraj al bait towers (which was just topped out recently).

  • @LegoFreak8404 the Sears Tower is bigger than than the Petronis Towers by roof height and spire height

  • @NicholasGuisano By spire, yes. By roof, no.

  • You forgot Rotherham town hall.

  • You forgot the Petronas Twin Towers, they surpassed the Sears/Willis Tower as the tallest building in the world before they were surpassed by Taipei 101.

  • stupid arabs

  • So this is why all those muslims have been video taping buildings in NYC!

    And here we though they were using the footage to plan additional terrorist strikes.

    Silly us...

  • @marmiusic Um, OK, hi.

  • Comment removed

  • Fuck Illuminati

  • what is this song called any one

  • REBUILD WTC

  • Hey CN Tower !

  • why are the Kuala Lumpur towers not in here?

  • @hashbrownsandeggs becuse the bulding your taking about is an 88 floor sory this is for 102 or +

  • CN is a TOWER, not a BUILDING. So there's no CN Tower in this list.

  • Bruj Khalifa is now the tallest building ever build

  • شكرا ع التوضيح

    ولكن البرج الخير تم تغير مسماه الى برج - برج خليفة-

  • grr buji dubai gets on ny headin !!

  • the wtc were 115 stories the 1 to the left of it is 117 how is it taller its not

  • @jbfeb5 Actually WTC was 110 stories each.

  • ooo ok thanks

  • @jbfeb5 the north tower was taller than the south, but only by like 6 feet. i don't know why, you'll have to go do some research.

  • @bunchalinks so am right ! when i was up there in 2000 i sware the south tower was like one more floor up.

  • @bunchalinks sorry i mean north

  • burj dubi is open u now.its fineshd!

  • thanks for uploading this video

  • ofc its sad that so many people died. but to be honest the building was an eyesore on new york skyline. and im 100% sure the new tower will look good.

  • I found it pretty appealing. It kind of grew on me.

  • you forgot cnnt

  • اعتقد هذا التصنيف قديم شوي بعدين اللي استغربت منه وين ابراج التوأم الماليزيه ماهي في التصنيف وابراج البيت في مكه ؟؟؟؟؟؟؟

  • It's hard to imagine king kong on the top of the burj dubai :P But u can see some influence of Empire State's design on it

  • the architecture of New York's freedom tower I actually like. The one downside is that it does NOT fit in with NY's overall theme. It's gonna be the only glass building surrounded by dozens of stone and precast concrete buildings from the 20th century. You can never truly "replace" the twin towers.

  • Well let me tel lyou this before tehre wer the twin toweres tehre was

    the empire state building a building that should be more reconized then it is

  • more recognized???

    Its probably one of the MOST iconic buildings ever made. And was the tallest building in the world for about 40 years. How much more recognition could it possibly get?

  • Why didn't you show the CN tower? it was the world's tallest building from 1975 to 2007.

  • والله ابدااااااااااااع ,,, آلف شكر لمخرج الفيلم

  • تاريخ أطول الأبراج

  • Whoever built the burj dubia has some major jumbo balls.

    Rebuild The WTC Twin Towers.

  • REBUILD WTC!!!!!!!!!!

  • @cheekkiller theyre doing it right now, althought its different buildings

  • i cant understand

  • its so dumb that there not building 2 new twin towers, instead one big one and the rest small. World trade centers were by far the biggest beacuse 1: The were so wide and fat and huge 2. there were 2 of em!

  • yep they should have rebuilt the same towers only twice the size....

  • the tallest one should be completed this year i think.

  • فيلم وثائئقي قصير عن تاريخ ناطحات السحاب في العالم منذ ? wtff does this means:P

  • Why no petronas towers

  • Empire state is still so amazing,1931 built, most folks from then are dead, and this stil standin and beautiful as ever,go KIkng kong!LOL

  • You missed the Petronas Towers

  • there building a new one but there calling world trade centre1 there only building 1 :)

  • i miss twin towers please rebuilt them want to go there with the original footprint and the new one the fucking freedom ugly tower no! dun stand that i vote for twin tower 2nd version and never be bomb and collapsed again.

  • Go WTC! I miss the Twin Towers!! ;(

  • Ment CN tower :P

  • You are missing CN should be second on that list beside Burj Dubai

  • its true The CN Tower should be under the Burj Its 553m but i think its cause of the Title...history of the worlds tallest (BUILDINGS) the CN Tower is not a building it was built to observe Torontos Financial district

  • wich is pretty cool

  • CN tower isn't a skyscraper/building though. It is the 2nd highest structure in the world but isn't usually included on lists like these.

  • @TMLeafs12 cn tower is not a building!!!

  • @TMLeafs12 the cn tower isnt as much as a building as it is a tower thats why they didnt put it on

  • CN isn't a skyscraper.

  • @TMLeafs12 The CN Tower is not a skyscraper it's just an observation or control tower.

  • شكرا لك

  • Ya KAHHAR!

  • KOSOVA

  • Astaghfirullah Halazhim. May Ya RABB protect us from the day of judgement. ALLAHUMMA AMEEN...

  • CN TOWER HELLO?

  • boring

  • gd job;):P:P:L:L

  • taiwan101  2010 not Tallest Buildings

  • it's the taipai 101 and yes it will be.

  • Excellent Video

  • It's clear. The USA is longer the reigning king of the skyscraper , re: see China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Dubai, etc etc. The USA had it's run on innovation and architectural design.

  • hello, dubai, is owned by americans, that is funny

  • most of the architects are europeans and americans

  • Comment removed

  • no your completly wrong ,I think there are -+300 millions americans and 500 millions europeans the world population is 6,5 billion so the european and ameriacan population is only a little bit more than 10 % of the total population

  • watch something new its all china and hon Kong

  • wooow amazing Skyscrapes and the most amazing is DUBAI Skyscrapes /

    Great job .^^

  • Yeah, I understood everything....

  • this vid is little more than a guide for terrorists planning to destroy symbols of modern architecture and progress.

  • hopefully the Burj will fall like the beautiful twin towers were destroyed by maniacs

  • woow

  • the maniacs were americans themselves!

  • Sure just like we israelis responsble for all the terror in the M/E :)

    always the same bullshit

  • nice rainbow six music hahaha

  • Ok, I know I might get flack for this, but they skipped one. The Petronas Towers, completed in 1998, became the worlds tallest buildings until Taipei 101 was finished in 2004.

  • Who cares what Dubui has its going down the drain when the oil is gone!

  • when the oil gone all the countries will gone!!!!

  • but don`t forget that there is alternative fuel oils

  • nice video

  • the sears tower is the biggest shit ever all yo bitchs have vaginas

  • very good vid.5 stars!i couldnt undertand the writing,but i understood the numbers.

  • taipei tower is kinda bullshit :D well it's cool but it's actually smaller than wtc towers and that canadian buiding. taipei just have that long radio tower there what makes it taller

  • lol does that short thing "تاريخ أطول الأبراج" mean "the history of World's Tallest Buildings" :D

  • yeah : ) lol

  • I find it odd that ther is no mention of the CN tower in toronto Canada considering it was the worlds tallest building up until last year when the buraj surpassed it. That being said the CN tower is still the tallest building in North America

  • Tallest buildings not structures.

  • acatually if your just going to call structures buildings, the tallest one is the kvly tv mast...

    structures are bs, theyre alot easier to create than fully operational buildings.

  • the cn tower is bull shit there is no point in building that shit the tru bigest building is in america called sears tower we have meaning to our buildings your a canadian and everyone hates you canadians south park united states even the mexicans

  • The Cn tower is the biggest free standing tower in the world it's not a Building! Second it has a purpose it was made to hold all the radio and comunication satalites. Third South park is Canadian, and made by Canadians! Third who the fuck cares if USA hates us THE FUCKING WORLD HATES USA! Mexico i dont know why you said that? So next time you say shit have some back you you dumb fat ass American, it's people like you that bring that country down to where it is. My case and point!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

  • English?

  • i cant believe this video of "history" doesnt even include the pyramids

  • because their were so many pyromids thaat they couldnt figure out which ones taller unlike the empire state build or sears tower whitch is obyesly taller than all the other buildings

  • sorry mate your wrong. theres only one really big fuck off pyramid and im pretty sure its the most famous one aswell... oh and dude, can ya learn how to spell, like seriously take a english course or something

  • well mabie he didnt include the pyramids cause he just thought it would be stupid to put them in their.and bye the way im am an all american,so i can speak english quit well i just have a lot of typeing problems cause i like to rush threw things,so take it easy on me would ya?

  • Speaking of spelling, I'm pretty sure he meant to say 'you're wrong'...

  • hmm i always thought the world trade center was taller then the sears tower.

  • It is, but only Tower 1. The Sears Tower is taller than tower 2 because of the spire on top. But Tower 1 has a spire that exceeds the Sears Tower. Without the spire the twin towers are taller.

  • ty for telling me so antanna wise twin towers are tallest

  • no the sears tower roof height was taller than the roof height of both wtc towers the wtc top roof height was 1365 and the sears tower is over 1400 feet

  • And that is why the WTC had the title of tallest building in the world and the USA? Explain that?

  • wtc had the title of worlds tallest buliding for a year or so until the completion of the sears tower then it too was surpasesd in 1998

  • كأنكو ناسيين أبراج مالييزيا وكندا؟؟!!!

  • (directed to author) You my friend, is the first person I see doing things right. Petronas was never taller than sears, and shouldn't be the WTB in 1998. Since its roof was even lower than sears.

    Though in this case, SWFC should hold the title right now :)

  • burj dubai 850meters , 320 floors u was wrong idiot

  • If I knew how to read squiggly lines this video might be helpfull.

  • the sears tower and world trade center was both completed in 1973

  • No i think the Sears building Started construction in 1973 OH SH*T I JUST THOUGHT ITS 2000 NO MORE 1900's

  • did you know the woolwoth building used to be the tallest building in the world

  • great video

  • Your video is awesome! How did you make it?

  • hold on what about the new nakheel tower it will have more than 200 floors and 150 lifts it will take 30,000 construction workers to build it,and have 10,000 parking spaces 19,000 residential apartments,100 super luxury hotel apartments at the top of it,

  • i like the empire state building it was the first real high skycrapper in the world

  • dubai is doing a great job, im from mexico and here we dont have a lot of skycrappers, i love the buildings from USA but now china and emiratos arabes are doing the competion.

  • Whats is with all the haters, enjoy that such projects do exist in humanity that is what defines technological advancements Stop HAting Arabs cuz they can afford it. So f-cckk-off haters. I am a US/arab delegate patriot and I am proud of the advancement in architecture happenings in Dubai and Middle east. This is freaking awesome keep is it ya sheikh Alla maack ya habbib. Mazen Agha hoon be america telphinle be dallas tnin ohad arba-temany siity tnien-6040 lol :)SHEIKH MOHAMMED BIN ZAYED callme.

  • at least we only have to wait a year till you guys would be beging for money

  • relax my friends , i a couple of decades when the middle east runs out of oil we will see them  selling their luxury cars and getting back on camels, they don't even know how to refine oil, this is all done by foreigners so let them enjoy their wealth as long as they can

  • Unfortunately they don't consider the CN Tower a building.

  • where is the cn tower ?

  • the sears tower in downtown Chicago is in fact bigger than the world trade centerboth towers are the same size but the burjai dubai may be big but what does it stand for! for example freedom tower stands for the freedom in North america

  • the North tower of the WTC was taller than the sears tower but it had a lower roof.

    WTC1 and WTC2 where different hights, the North tower was taller. They only compared the south tower to the sears tower.

  • wrong. while one of the towers stood taller than the other, neither one of the stood taller than the sears tower. sears tower minus the antenna stood 1400 plus feet.

  • minus the antenna of the Sears Tower the WTC would still be taller

  • uh, no. sears tower's antenna don't count, if they did it would still be tallest after burj dubai.

    i hate when people make stuff up.

  • it would still b taller if the wtc nevr had th antenna then the Sears Tower would suprass it beacuse of its roof

  • so if you keep repeating something it will become true? you must be a republican. dumbass, you're already ON THE INTERNET, google the heights of the buildings.

  • ha republican

    give me a fukin break

  • correct, 1450 feet to the roof.

  • maybe the burj dubai stands for 'we're so rich cos were covered in oil'

  • until the United States invades them

  • I must say that Is a big building.  in ten years we wont need eastern oil anymore. enjoy it while you can.

  • paid for by USA,,,,you just had oil,,,no technology,,,,how proud you shouldnt be,,,we even drilled your oil for you,,,,,yeh,,, be proud of your dirt

  • where are the Petronas Towers?

  • I would love to see it but i can't understand it.

  • music from 1:14 is command and conquer generals gameplay soundtrack!

  • There is no CN Tower or KVLY-TV mast. :/

  • the north tower of the WTC was taller than th sears tower tey onl compare the south tower to the sears tower

  • yah theres no CN Tower eh!

  • You know that if you look closly

    the World Trade Center and the sears tower look like there the same hight

  • ya they do but the antennas dont count so on either and sears is like not that much taller but ya the antennas dont count ilooked it up

  • If they took the buildings height by how high the roof is,the empire state building would be taller than the petrnoras twin towers

  • يا أخي الكريم عندك خطأ في هذاالتقرير

    أين برج ماليزيا ( بتروناس )الذي أخذ اللقب من سماءأمريكا من شيكاغو إلى سماء آسيا في ماليزياعام 98 إلى عام 2003 على ما أعتقد

    ويمكنك التأكد من ذلك مع إن الأمر واضح وجلي للجميع

  • interesting how there was no mention of the destruction of the WTC towers at all...

  • There is no need to mention it. Important is that the Twin Towers where there at that time at that place.

  • cool buildings there tall

  • were is the kingdom towr?...

  • kingdom tower is only 320m

  • oh realy i did not know that

  • all those dates aren't true it only took a couple months to build sears tower not from 1973 to 2004 the building was made on 1973

  • all 4 buildings had its moment empire state bigest at its time wrld trade center was biggest at its time sears tower(best building ever) was biggest at its time and fuck the chinese building you see both the world trade center and empire was done in same year 1972the sears tower was finished in 1973 and im not proud of this building they start messing with our big building i think its a little pay back the attack world trade center so we would slow down on our contruction

  • what about the petronas twin tower?\

  • this is a disgreas people america will always have bigger buildings and bigger cocks than u b-i-t-c-h-s so fuck your self the last building isn't even fucking done and i wactched the scice chanel and the buildon is only 2in thick

  • The Empire State Building was more impressive for the time it was built than the new dubai tower. Just think, building a 100+ Story building 80 years ago, during a depression.

  • semperfijoe92 please if you going to say something stupid then DON'T

    and to everyone else please do not think that people like that accurately represent the usa

  • all world cantres gether to pass fat america

  • I love the Burj Dubai and all, and I'm going to visit when it's done, but if you are going to list buildings under construction, you should list the Shanghaiw World Financial Center, the Chicago Spire, and Freedom Tower.

  • thats a big ass building...but igot a question....over there ....how come these countries have all this money to build super huge sky scrapers...but they have over half of there populations living in poverty, and they have terrorists running around blowing themselves up......i think its aload of crap to spend so much money on sky scrapers when you could be using that money to house and feed your ppl..and to drivecrime and terrorism out fooyur country

  • you my friend are by far the dumbest person ive ver met, u must be american. First of all UAE is one of the richest countries in the world, they are not terrorists and the people are living normal lives , way better then your stupid american ass could ever imagine

  • I think he was referring to IRAQ AND UAE.
