Since we are talking about tallest structures, i thought it would be neat to mention Mt.Everest (Tallest structure build by Nature) in Nepal
http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a99/gokusingh/everst.jpg

Age of Everest:
Everest was formed about 60 million years ago
Elevation:
29,035 (8850m)

Currently the tallest structure is CN Tower in Toronto, Canada.
it's about 553 m
8850/553 = 16 (so we need 15 more CN Tower)
Well, still long way to go to beat NATURE...LOL

^^ Wow, nice rainbow building in the background! What's its name?

It's just a random communist building with offices.

Its name is "Metalowiec" (roughly translated as "steeler") and no one knows why it has a rainbow on it :lol:

^^The thing I love best about Mississippi are its dirt roads. These take you places where there is no one but you, the sound of the leaves, and bird calls.

There is a bit of confusion about this in my city(Cape town), and im not sure the height measurements are correct but anyway:

Completed: Metlife centre(150m/ 492ft)

http://i1196.photobucket.com/albums/aa413/deadhead262/Untitled-31_zps4bacaabe.jpg

Under construction: Porside tower(142m/465ft), a spire is expected to be added to the roof to take it over the 500ft mark. I think the building itself is actually taller than the 142m.

Grote- or Saint Cyriacuskerk, Hoorn, The Netherlands
Around the 60 meters high, and replaced a church from around 1840, which replaced a medieval church with a tower which looked familiar to the one on the Grote Kerk in Haarlem.
