The CN TOWER in Toronto, Canada is taller than any building in the USA. MUCH taller that the original WTC and even taller than the Willis Tower (former Sears Tower).
Even the New "Freedom Tower" will be smaller. My point is where is the CN Tower on this List?
i love the twin towers, because im from New York City, every night i would just stare at them, i dont know why, now their gone, and i cry almost everytime i see them in pictures
Great video man. The architechure of these buildings is incredible. I personally think the Twin Towers should be rebuilt apposed to the Freedom Tower as do a lot of Americans. Again excellent video very accurate.
Petronas Twin Tower is so beautiful ! i like empire state too ! nice vid...the music touches me deeply when the slide shows the twin tower of new york..
@kraksnopp can u put the U.S bank tower from L.A CA please it has 75 floors right beside the Empire state bulding please u cant say no becuse the two international finance center had 88 floors also the petronas towers had 88 floors ..please :)
the petronas towers are the most beautiful of the 10. And no, I'm not malaysian. I'm american, but I went to kuala lumpur and went to these buildings.
for me i think Petronas twin tower, Kuala Lumpur is the most beautiful of them all. I mean for me, i dont know about the rest of you guys.. great video though..
Look at the diagram. It's ludicrous that the Petronas Towers were considered taller than the Sears Tower (because the spires were considered part of the structure).
what new building? as far as i concerned...there are no new building built in chicago currently...only one tall building (Chicago Spire, 610m) is under construction and will be completed around 2011...
yeah...but this building is not completed..it is still under construction...so will not get to the list..not to boost myself, but i do know a lot about buildings especially the tall ones or with great architecture...because i am a university student currently pursuing architecture course.
i watched this video long time ago..so forgot what is inside it...freedom tower and some other buildings under construction should not be included in the world tallest list too... but this noe maybe list of tallest in the future.
it is not cnn tower, it is CN (Canada nation) Tower)..its height is 553m but it is not counted as building..can be only counted by structure or TV tower..same like the oriental Pearl Tower, Ostankino Tower, Kuala Lumpur Tower and Milad Tower..all these are tv tower and over 400m tall...all these in other category...they are not bulding.
it is not shanghai world finance center...it is shanghai world financial center...wrong name to the building...it does matter actually...and the design is no more circle on top..it is trapezoid...
Typical, the CN Tower in Toronto Canada at 1815ft is still the largest building in the world. It surpasses all the buildings you included. The Burj Dubai will supass them all.
ny beast spire wont be as big as the ny new disen of the freedom tower also ny is building 4 new towers because of the twin towers also they have like 10 being build besides them already but chicago right now has the biggest building in the us but only until 2011
actually two of yours are gone and chicago is getting the chicago spire and new york is getting the freedom towere so it will be chicago 2 new york 2 dumb fuck keaphar
I hope this doesn't become a competition. Skyscrapers kind of freak me out anyway. They say they can sway inches side to side. I wonder how that works with the Malaysian buildings with that thing connecting the 2 of them.
After seeing this video i got to admit that in the future the freedom tower in NYC is schedule to be the world tallest building, because for now i thought the tower in taipei, taiwan was the tallest building.
I've heard there planning on making an even taller building then the burj dubai, it's called the al burj and is suppose to be built a few miles down from the burj bubai and is suppose to have a final height of 1200m!
sys the limit btw lol chicago spire curently under cunstruction and will rise in about 2-3 month it will stand over 2,000 ft tall and thoose buildings arent current here are the tallest buildings in the world under cunstruction and almoust done
1.burji dubia 2,700ft
2.chicago spire 2,000ft
3.rusia tower 1,900ft (not sure yet)
4.new york freedom tower (idk ither but it will difently be the 4th tallest.)
Structural limits of ferroconcrete are one issue; There's only so much weight these materials can handle and such huge skyscrapers are really pushing it. Unless we come up with much stronger, cheap alternatives, we'll soon hit a barrier.

It is usually not included in these types of videos because it's a different type of structure, much easier to be built high.
By now the Burj Dubai is 2300ft tall.
