The antennas and spires shouldn't be counted as the true height of a building.

[JC_Ferrer]

Love the quality of the video, amazing! Also I hate that skyscraper where they put stick on the building so they got more height : /

[ramaraocheepi]

These skyscrapers are architectural marvels and remain as tourist attractive sites .Indeed countries possessing these are heartily appreciated.

The Taipei 101 is the tallest building I’ve ever stood on. At that time in 2006 it was the tallest building in the world.

My favorite current skyscraper is Taipei 101 because it great shape like stainless steel and green glass exterior stack bamboo.

[MarkNealon]

Great video. I'd love to see another ranking buildings by highest occupied floor.

[elimlinrr]

The best video I have seen illustrating the actual buildings in a 3 dimensions comparison.

I like the Freedom Tower...it reflects the light really well...but it could've been better. Needs more of a crown at the top.

Height should be determined by the highest floor reached that has a comfortable environment with 80% of the building at least comprising of the same floors. Not decorative spires.

I like that most of them are from China, imagine all this building in one city

[oliverl-n]

Bravo👍👍I really enjoy this video, god job!😊👍🙌

[feliper]

nice video! would have been great to have the construction year of each as well

[dimsumden]

What about IFC Shanghai (bottle opener) at 492m and Jin Mao (420m). Both in Shanghai.

Guangzhou CTF Finance Center is nice design

[oddsandwindsocks]

It was a shame that when we went up burj Khalifa we weren't allowed pass level 148 .about half way.

[voongnz]

Lol the spire of merdeka is about a quarter of it's total height.

My favorite of the bunch is definitely Oblisco in Egypt and probably the only one to finish. I'm not sure about the future of Jeddah Tower but I have high hopes for the Oblisco project, it's already approved for 2024
It is a masterpiece that will be in the Pharaonic style😍😉

[drock]

It's sad seeing towers that are clearly shorter than others, being ranked above them because of a silly 300 foot spire that the other building doesn't have. One World Trade Center being the biggest example of this flaw in measuring building height.

The Sears Tower is clearly the tallest building in the United States, but the flawed rules give that title to the much shorter One World Trade Center

[cojaysea]

Great well done video . Why are some spires counted as part of the height and some not ?
