I never realized the glass was sails and the blocks were icebergs. Its such a gorgeous museum though and now knowing that I can see the structure differently and appreciate the use of wood and openness of the building even more. I just wish there were more pictures and video of the process of building each project that is highlighted in the episode.

[@Rac3r4Life]

I could not live in that first building. I am afraid of heights. I would literally have a panic attack in every room of my house.

[@Andrew-Locksley691]

At 18:39 (Lenard st ,NYC) That staircase made out of concrete in the lobby looks Luke a parking garage 😳. At least dress it up with some Italian Marble not bare raw sterile concrete!!!The first thing that comes to mind when I look at the Leonard st tower is the Favela slumbs in Rio De Jenaro

Interesante opción de tener acceso a contenidos que no se encuentran en México de manera habitual. Creo que es un excelente canal con muy buenos contenidos!

[@brianflannigans5874]

[@brianflannigans5874]

[@curt-dr4dc]

How do they wash all that glass?

[@brianflannigans5874]

"Safety features" and "China" in the same sentence? Choose one.

[@13minutestomidnight]

"4 months later the city changed its land use laws" and suddenly there was no problem building it. Well, that's the power of a billionaire. Legal restrictions are helpless in the face of money.

[@anonymouscapybara2377]

The whole project was just a monument of excess that reflected one man's ego. No wonder Parisians are so rightfully antagonistic of it.

[@brianflannigans5874]

its gonna take a few days after that to go through though, so were tlkn fri. or sat.

[@nishitmangal3176]

Namaste sir, Ek axis thi iska kya result ho sakta he: Lagna: Rishabh, 8th lord (Guru) in 12th house with (Shani and mangal), Guru 9th drishti se 8th house ko dekh raha he. Ketu 9th house me he akela.

[@brianflannigans5874]

im still high from the gas, it was so thick it looked like i stood beside a 5 inch exhaust pipe on a diesel truck and the drive rolled coal on me, or i was a coal miner

[@brianflannigans5874]

duh, you ever seen diesel brothers show. they did this here, its a armored bulletproof brinks truck converted into 6 wheel drive tank, with a 50 cal. machine on top.its also motorized so u can shoot shots from your home

[@brianflannigans5874]

ive been playing this pyschological warfare games, long before i knew you. so when your out of my wife, ill probally still be playing, i told you 8,5 months ago, i cant loose at my games, what would the developer look like saying i failed...

[@brianflannigans5874]

sometimes joy stick operated brains, can be lied to

[@_Breakdown]

15:15 - - These engineers are nuts - - I would not trust the stability of that tower _AT ALL!_

[@joshuazondo4764]

I have seen beautiful models, celebrities and actresses. I see beautiful women in my neighborhood but somehow Corina Kwami's looks surpasses all that I've seen. In my eyes she is the most beautiful woman.

[@brianflannigans5874]

she did say u think im trouble, just wait till you meet my brother

[@brianflannigans5874]

im about to start it up. im a ball roller

[@brianflannigans5874]

[@MedicatedMemory]

Imagine if that thing broke halfway up the cliff?😮

[@mtsbr78]

Please, dub your docs in brasilian portuguese by AI. Thanks.

[@KyrilPG]

Am I dreaming or there's a broken beam in the shot at 25:48 ? Right under the platform.

[@rustygear447]

When you think about it, that elevator project is full of bad decisions and poor safety standards for workers

[@brianflannigans5874]

back in theday when i was in the CIA as a lie detector analysis expert. id just shake a eight ball up,

[@brokinarrow1]

the building cost numbers their giving are absolute rubbish.It seems to be a common theme with these highly sculptural pieces of Architecture.At the beginning of the Gehry Museum piece,they mentioned a budget of 130 million euros, to a final cost of 800+million,holy shit,thats quite a difference,good thing the client/developer was a multi billionare with an appreciation for whats involved in making ''great Art''otherwise someone would have lost their ass on that project!

[@hannanhg]

The last building is totally waste of money.

[@brianflannigans5874]

all the leaves changed colors and shit

[@peterkompter2417]

those prices? and those stairs? have no priceless seamless stairs? theres lines, theres color vaiatipns in the ceiling parts not smooth and cracks, rea? for that l wouldnt pay half?

[@drew-andresvogt652]

I don't think he understands the word "impossible".

[@peterkompter2417]

tunnel access with all that smooth walls lights and advertising is so ugly compared to outside

[@tanthiennguyen9308]

[@peterkompter2417]

doesnt look scary or precarious to me, and it doesnt defy physics, is it not still standing?

[@brianflannigans5874]

[@michaelsapienza8749]

[@felixdatche9278]

The 'jenga tower' in NYC is actually ugly...no matter how well they explain it...awful lookingand I'm an architect...

[@mskayla7747]

[@ShaheenGhiassy]

[@brianflannigans5874]

my grocery shopper, might have to go on a meat run, and after that it should be plenty to eat until i get home.

[@brianflannigans5874]

the powerful blowing is like a magic ball is the only answers in your brain

[@peterkompter2417]

[@brianflannigans5874]
