It's also has meaning! The design itself showing how Tunku Abdul Rahman when he declare independent of Malaysia. The spire is showing his hand raising up while he declare it. In short the design show how he declare independent. The design is like that because it's located next to where Malaysia had it independent which is 'Stadium Merdeka'. That's why the name is 'Merdeka' PNB 118.

After partially constructed, it would attract more business opportunities and transactions, which benefits all related industries who want the market to flow so that they can feed themselves and their employees, who in turns can afford more things to a better life.

Love vids like this about skyscrapers

[@heroryan321]

Architects: Alright it’s gonna be too hard to build a Megatall so let’s build a 599m Supertall

[@MoneyManHolmes]

Hopefully someday an architect says “actually it’s gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience” to that.

[@everburn]

@@MoneyManHolmes wow, wow, wow

[@white94rabbit]

That’s the height limit in China for skyscrapers now.

[@jackz4713]

Can relate to ping an finance center. Reduced from 659m to 599m

[@Daniel-jt7xw]

@@jackz4713 yeah lol it’s quite unsatisfied to see the 9 numbers.. 1 meter more and it can be 600 meters

[@beyondxxl]

i wish more mega tall buildings are constructed in the future

[@0163844098]

Oh we have more planned up. This will not be the last one.

[@hesoyam881]

Glad that these megatalls are all interesting designs, instead of just giant squares

[@IqmalAziz]

The thumbnail doesn't even feature Petronas towers, yet somehow i could feel that it is Kuala Lumpur. Negaraku!

Huge fan of this channel ❤️

[@rafael_barata]

Amazing building!!

[@ihsanaminudangana5363]

The music at the end of video there was just..... Marvellous

[@LightBluly]

I was there on New Years Eve 2018 and by that time, the building is already tall. I have never seen the building that tall before!

[@dominick253]

As a concrete truck driver these buildings are amazing. Liquid rock. After 20 years in the industry it still amazes me.

[@Rserpe]

You know, it’s not the height, it’s the width and what you do with it that makes it memorable.

[@TheB1M]

I've been trying to make that point for years.

[@user-fg3dz5kv7q]

Steinway tower be like

[@wouterh480]

I've heard sth very similar somewhere else and in a VERY different context

[@RubenTheBoss._]

the thoughts of an architect are better than the thoughts of an ignorant person but know when he does not know.

What a beautiful building.

[@w_illj]

This is great. Me and my dad are both interested in architecture and you posted this video on his 51st birthday! Cant wait to watch it with him

[@baraarujin]

Apart from the information it carries, I like the commentary very much. Thank you guys.

[@joevinq78]

I live in Malaysia and I was watching the building rising every month every day and year

[@xavier._.157]

Every1 says they r 1st but the 1st person is already watching the video

[@markusz4447]

the first person would be the editor. Quite shure he does not comment on youtube lol

[@space-ux1hh]

out of the billions of people that use youtube, you’re probably never first

[@james3634]

Another great video! I think that if this building wasn’t in such a long phase, and rather just foundation work it might not have gone ahead. Just like Chicago’s spire. Could you do a video on redeveloping ports/ harbours like Canary Wharf in London, The dock lands in Dublin or San Francisco’s financial district?

One of my favorite channels on KZbin,,,,keep up the great work guy's!

[@xXx_XIX]

It feel so sad to hear that this is predicted to be the last megatall building. I work here and I want to see more beautiful skyscrapers.

[@matdanih]

For those who say that the spire of PNB118 is cheating The spire can be accessible by visitors and will be having an observation deck, thus considering it as a usable space.

[@IronSpyder-ky2lk]

So what’s the highest accessible point in metres

[@matdanih]

@@IronSpyder-ky2lk Approx above 630m.. something like that.

[@imranrazak9463]

@@IronSpyder-ky2lk higher than burj khalifa accessible height

[@Peizxcv]

You have seen the artist’s impression of that antenna observation deck right? 4m diameter and no stairs nor elevator in that concept art so how do you get people 100+m above the roof the of the building?

[@Peizxcv]

@@matdanih You want people to climb 100+m in a 4m diameter tower on top of a 500m building? Does it sounds realistic?

[@lordnk3698]

i could see the unfinished skyscraper from my hotel back in 2019 i had no idea that it was gonna be that tall

[@guruprasadkm]

The B1M is undoubtedly one of the best channels on KZbin !

[@gmd11390]

B1M: Thank you for being a channel that uses construction to metaphorically strive higher and higher. The sophistication of your writing does too. Graphics are great! Thank you. However I disagree that 118 will be the world's last megatall skyscraper. Ego will never die, and someone will always want to win tallest building.
