    I love your videos. The tallest buiding in my city is 54 stories. I have been to the top of it on a open day and you feel yours ears "pop" when you go up the lift. People I talked to said they feel the building move on windy days.

    I'm always blown away by the San Francisco skyscraper collection. When I moved there in the 80's there was the Bank of America tower and the TransAmerica pyramid. Not much of anything south of Market Street. Salesforce Tower is 20 stories taller. Yes the Bay area is Super windy, it is a notch in the coastal mountains that funnels cool air into the hot interior of the state which acts like a giant chimney. Today I was getting some plywood as while tying it to the roof rack the wind flipped one edge up and snapped the 1/8" panel
  • Another masterpiece video from this channel. You deserve 1 million lb subscribers and I hope you will reach it soon.
