  • With increasingly limited space in urban regions, architects have resorted to building higher and higher. New York was, of course, the birthplace of the modern skyscraper and, in the past century, the concepts and shapes of these structures have far surpassed what the original designers could have possibly envisioned. Now they're a common sight in cities wherever you go… so join us, as we travel around the world to explore 15 incredible looking skyscrapers and buildings.

    Taipei 101 is an astonishing building. I got to visit it not long after it opened. It is well positioned and can be seen from almost everywhere in Taipei. I wish it had even more floors and was still the world's tallest building.

    You need to get your facts straight... New York City was NOT the origin of the skyscraper. The first skyscraper was the Home Insurance building, built in Chicago in 1885. It wasn't difficult to find this information... I already knew most of it and I didn't put my foot in my mouth giving inaccurate info like "New York City is the birthplace of skyscrapers".

      This channel gives LOTS of bad information. I feel like they just make up "facts" on the fly. This channels needs to be called out by a lot more people because they make up "facts" on ALL their videos

      @Richie Rich I lived on the South Side of Chicago for six years. My neighborhood was filled with amazing, wonderful people. It was rarely dangerous, and only in the ways any urban area is. And New York City has had some of its lowest violent crime rates in decades. Perhaps you shouldn't believe all the racist, faux news hype?

    The Petronas Towers don’t get enough love. They are a very beautiful example of Islamic aesthetics.

    • @dans9011
      @dans9011 Před rokem

      Not a fan of the building. It's nothing special and lacks the wow factor. There are much better and more worthy Islamic examples around.

    The Shard is actually 306 m. The height figure you are given is measured from Sea Level, not from the ground level where the building is located.

    Dear TF CHANNEL: Your subscribe info completely blocked the video from 20:50 - 21:07. Completely. There was only the voice over and your subscribe info. That was way too long to have your video completely blocked. Definitely won't get subscriptions to your channel by blocking your videos for that length of time. I realize that it was most likely a mistake because I haven't seen that before now. You might want to write a comment and pin it to the top so viewers are aware that it was an accident, expressing your apologies for the blockage. Just a suggestion. Again...I realize that it was most likely a mistake but new viewers might not. Great video as always! Thanks.

      Out of a 22 minute video, those 17 seconds of him trying to grow his channel, was just too much for you to handle?
      Ridiculous.

    • @itwasaliens
      @itwasaliens Před rokem +2

      Have you seen any videos from channels like this one that doesn't remind viewers to subscribe? Lol.
      Also all you would be getting in its place would be more stock photos of the same building. Are you really that upset about a few less pictures of the same thing?

  • @stevedoesyarn

    Hardly new. The Petronas Towers are over twenty years old. And the Messeturm in Frankfurt was finished in 1990.

  • @lazziebardakos2956

    Unsure why the one in NYC was on this list. It looks like a tower made from LEGO by a 4 year old.

    Regarding the Shard: Southwark is pronounced suh·thuhk! Although it's fair to never know this unless you hear someone actually say it! 😄🤷‍♀️

    To bad none of these are tall long and thin so it can be a big vertical garden that uses natural light so reducing energy consumption by lots and providing food and reducing pesticide and chemical fertilizer use because it can be organic do to lack of outside predators.

      The irony in environmentalists discussing making skyscrapers made of concrete and steel “green.” However, Saudi Arabia has a project like you describe underway that’ll be 100 miles long.

    The narrator is completely incorrect about New York being the, ‘birthplace for the skyscraper’! No, it was definitely not New York, it was Chicago!
    Get your facts straight if you want to be credible! It was the Home Life Insurance Building!

    Be careful watching these videos from this channel. A lot of the information is misleading, badly informed or straight up false.
