The Burj Dubai is the world's tallest building, also the world's tallest man made structure. At more than 2,000 feet high, the Taipei 101is a distant second place. The chicago spiral, (under construction) will be taller than the Taipei 101.
@beebec77 The video is about buildings that were actually finished by the time this video was made. Though it's construction began in 2004, it was not finished until 2010, and this video was made in 2007.
u americans are f***ed in the head get your facts correct it should have been 1. burj dubai 2. CN Tower 3.Tapai 101 4. sears tower 5. Shanghai World finantial Center 6. Citic Plaza 7. empire state 8. Bank of china 9. John Hancock Center 10. First Canadian Place
When calculating a skyscraper's heigh, I prefer buildings without spires. Adding a spire just to increase the overall height is cheating. At the moment, Shanghai World Financial Center, at 492m, is the tallest of all and has the tallest skydeck. Officially though, the tallest is Taipei 101 (509 m including spire, but only 450 without it).
The CN tower was built in 1972 and is currently the 2nd tallest building in the world behind the Burj Dubai. Both, particularly the CN was built WAY before to published this video, so I think you need to research before posting information on the web.
um hey......you do know the burj dubai has been under construction since 2004 and by july of 2007 it surpassed the height of taipei 101 and in august of 07 passed the CN tower making it the tallest free standing structure so by the time this video was posted it was the tallest in the world........wake up.
The Cn tower in Toronto Canada hels the title for worlds tallest building from 1978 to 2007 when the Buraj Surpassed it !!! why is this never mentioned in any of these vids ?? even today the CN tower is North Americas Tallest building
Bud if you look up Building in the dictionary, it states "In architecture, construction, engineering and real estate development the word building may refer to one of the following:
Any man-made structure used or intended for supporting or sheltering any use or continuous occupancy" and it is possible to get into the CN tower so therfor it IS classified as a building.
This is how it should be: 1. Bruj Dubai 2. Tapei 101 3. Sears Tower 4. Shanghai World Financial Center 5. Two International Finance Center 6. CITIC Plaza 7. Empire State Building 8. Shun Hing Square 9. Bank of China Tower 10. John Hancock Center
i am srry but the cn tower is declared as a spire and not a real building . the reason its like that is because the cn tower is something u go up in and look down,unlike something like for example the burj dubia witch is a 7 star hotel,so for the tallest MANMADE structers in the world the burj dubia will come first then the cn tower,i hope what i have told u helped u.
Im Malaysian and i hate Malaysia!! dunt b fool by da Twin Tower cause Malaysia isnt tat great at all...i hope the world knw bout this....what a racist and backward country!!
hey vanhelen010 well my favorite is the Sears Tower and after the empire state biuldingthe Sears Tower toped the empire state biulding and nyc has boring biuldings there so squre CHICAGO is were i live and here in CHICAGO the biuldings are more uniqe and better and more cooler and more nicer than nyc
homerbear46 I agree. The Empire State Building will always be my favorite building. It was the tallest in the world for 41 years. No building will probadly be more famous. Plus many of the tallest buildings in the world right now are the only tall buildings in the area, but look at Nyc city. It has many tall and famous buildings.
...call me old fashioned, but i still like the empire state the best.....whats another couple of hundred meters when you've been King Kong's climbing frame, and the nest of classic b-movie monster "Q-the winged serpent"
Those were the tallest towers a few years ago. Now, there are a lot more growing like Burj Dubai, the Shanghai world financial center, the freedom tower, fordham tower, al bait towers, etc. You should make a new one.
The Petronas Towers should get moved down a slot. I think it's garbage that they're taller on a weird technicality CTBUH guideline that doesn't let the Sears Tower count its antennas, but DOES allow Petronas to count theirs. I mean, now it doesn't matter with Taipei 101 and Burj coming, but that really doesn't make sense how they did that. I mean, the Sears Tower is seriously about 250 feet taller than those buildings. Look it up.
Petronas doesn't hate antennas, it has a spire. That's counted because it is considered apart of the building. The Sears Tower's antennas are not because they were put on after the construction of the building.
it really depends whether you consider it the tallest EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT DONE YET. Technically, it is the tallest built so far. But since it's not finished, the guy probably didn't count it.
