To be fair, the picture in the article is the one ATG posted. He should have posted the picture caption though: "Little brother: The Dubai Tower and Prince al-Walid bin Talal, who is behind the scheme"Mek-Izzle wrote:
edit: Oh you're talking about the Saudi Mile High tower instead of the Burj, regardless, a mile high tower is fucking impressive. If they can pull it off. If you don't want them so rich and want them to be poor, stop driving your car
ATG you noob, you posted the Burj Dubai when you're talking about a different building.
Because it would collapse.Mek-Izzle wrote:
And why the hell doesn't the UK build a tall building. We're such faggots. Instead we build buildings that look like vegetables.
Our ground isn't suitable mmk, but you can try
People say it's impossible to do alot of things. Nobody thought you could even make a tower as big as the Burj Dubai is
Besides, that was years ago. If I remember right, there have been some plans for some tall buildings here. Don't know what's happening with them

There's one going to be built which is 200ft higher than Canary wharf.
Which is still pathetic

Aye,
I wouldn't call them skyscrapers though, most of them are shorted than canary, of which, we already now in the grand scheme of things, is pretty pathetic.
I mean sure I can see it where I live, but, it's not very impressive... just a blinking light

hmmm ... so they don't want to win by conquest, rather by holding a wonder for x number of years.
It hard to protect a wonder in the modern day. A bad strategy to be honest.

That was always a lame way to win

Just like the Tower of Babel, it will fall.

"people in ny have a general idea of how to drive. one of the pedals goes forward the other one prevents you from dying"
lol, I just read a little about the Biblical "Tower of Babel"
and it's certainly a creative way of explaining why people speak different languages. These guys that made this story book weren't dumbasses, that's for sure.

Remember the original Shrek movie, the midget king had to over-compensate by building something huge. yah along those lines.
Imagine suicide jumping off that building. You would be falling for so long you would have rethought jumping in the first place.
hahaha thats a good point and then pull the parachute especially if you were to jump from the two mile tower.aimless wrote:

Ah, but the two mile tower is a curve. You'll hit the side of the curve long before you travel down for two miles. Thus causing a messy splatter on the side of the building instead of on the street adjacentblademaster wrote:

Or you'd slide down the side as Luke did in Cloud City.Mek-Izzle wrote:

Which would be about 2, then those money wasters are building a TALLER tower right next to it. Then the kuwait tower a year later, and the mile high shit in the next 5 years.jsnipy wrote:
