Description

For thousands of years, people have pushed the limits of engineering—building ever taller towers, bridges, and skyscrapers. But is there a point where physics simply says "no more"? In this documentary, we explore the ultimate height limit of human construction. Discover what makes skyscrapers stand, why wind becomes a greater challenge than gravity, how modern engineering pushes buildings higher than ever before, and whether humanity could one day build a tower that reaches the edge of space. From today's record-breaking skyscrapers to futuristic megastructures, this is the fascinating science and engineering behind how high we can really build—and what ultimately limits us.
