Video Description:
Ever since the Burj Khalifa became the world's tallest building upon completion in 2010 Dubai has held the title. And that despite many announcements about projects worldwide set to dethrone the Burj Khalifa, such as the Jeddah Tower (Kingdom Tower) in Saudi Arabia, the Azerbaijan Tower, the Sky Mile Tower in Tokyo or the Creek Tower.
This video explores the difficult projects and looks at their current state.

I can totally see the allure of being an architect. Imagine being responsible for a gigantic sculpture that towers over an entire city, you'd never again worry about dying without leaving your mark on the world.

Honestly would love to see a bar graph where each tall building is a bar that is the height of the ENTIRE STRUCTURE (so, counting stuff like radio antennas) and then a bar overlayed on top that is the height of the usable floors. Would be interesting to see how the tallest buildings truly stack against each other like that.
EDIT: Also would be cool to see the total area of usable floor space of each tallest building as well.

The concept of the Oblisco Capital as the centerpiece for theNew Administrative Capital in Egypt is really cool; however, it doesn't need to be that tall. The Iconic Tower (which is also being built in the NAC) will already be the tallest building in Africa at just over a third of the height. If Egypt scales the Oblisco down to say the size of the One World Trade Center, not only would it will still surpass the Iconic but would be a much more manageable and realistic objective.

Architects do t figure out how to make building resist wind, gravity etc.
Engineers do.
Architects are responsible for the vision of the building.
Engineers make it work.

I’m liking because of how calm and informed you sound over this video. Please continue. I love your content. Thank you for how seamless the attachment and conciseness of your sponsor was as well. Phenomenal.

Absolutely loving all the latest uploads we've been getting so far! The 3d modeling here is incredibly top notch, and also it's really a fascinating topic. I wonder which one will eventually be the tower to dethrone the Burj Khalifa. Maybe we can get a follow up update if that ever happens? Anything to get more great content!

Honestly the Burj Khalifa didn't really use crazy complicated tech to build it. It still uses a massive amount of concrete in it's overall construction which is nuts. It's defining factor is how many pylons they poured under the sand to hold that monstrosity up.

I was speaking to the Architect of the Strata tower in London which opened in 2010 as the 'Tallest Residential Building in London'. He told me to take the title off of 2009s Pan Peninsula Tower they made the aircraft warning lights at the top of the Strata Tower 5cm higher than originally planned.

Love this video as a skyscraper fan! Had the opportunity to visit Burj Khalifa back in 2015 and man, what a sight! Really spot on with your numbers, facts, and research!

I don’t even understand why people want to build such tall buildings, like sure, it gives more space by going up, but when you can’t get to the top easily and safely, there’s no point.

Background music w/ transitions is so on point, loving the production quality.

Thanks for this level of clarity!

This Reminds of this verse from hadiths:
When the Prophet (ﷺ) was asked about the signs of the Final Hour, one of the signs he mentioned was "when you see the barefoot, naked, destitute shepherds competing in constructing tall buildings.”
It's crazy how 40 years ago the villages of Bedouins exited where they use to travel via Camels on these lands and now look at them they are competing with each other for who builds the tallest skyscraper

interestingly the 8.5m Tower of Jericho in palestine held the record of tallest structure for 4,000 years (8,000bc-4,000bc). i don't think humans will ever break this record again. the egyptians were the with closest with their Great Pyramid of Giza which held the title of tallest structure for 3,881 years. but the egyptian record was cut shorter than 4,000 years by the Lincoln Cathedral of England in 1311.

Looks like the Creek Tower stopped because the Jeddah Tower stopped. But it's ready to continue if anyone else tries something.
