Incredible Megaprojects That Failed

For every gargantuan stadium or stratospheric skyscraper that makes it off the architect’s drawing board onto the real-world skyline, hundreds never see the light of day. Perhaps they’re too expensive, or impractical to build with the available technology of the day. Some were always insane, while others could deserve a second hearing.

Incredible Megaprojects That Never Happened

Crystals island sounds and looks very cool.

[@bluephoenix3986]

Hyper building and mega city pyramid are my favorites for style, purpose, and ingenuity.

[@StefanDijkstra]

Small correction: it's Rem Koolhaas, not Koolhaus.

Afaik, one of the main problems with supertall buildings is the need for central elevator shafts. SIEMENS has solved this problem, they build real life turbolifts! But so far, afaik, no one has used them...

The last time I was this early, Egyptians were still debating whether building pyramids is feasible or not.

Last time I was this early a caveman sexually assaulted me

[@PloverTechOfficial]

So sad to see such wonderful ideas die

[@anaru369]

They really wanted a haunted pyramid

[@alparslankorkmaz2964]

Nice video.

[@knb6744]

I would love to see at least two of these completed. Here they are, 1. Crystal Island and 2. Shimizu Megacity

[@chrissebastian7330]

Love your videos man.😄

[@Kampfyrepodcast]

The puns are smooth subtle and classy 😎

[@WellAnimated]

Hi The music is a tad bit to loud compared to the voiceover ^^

[@priyanshujanrao7710]

I really liked the india tower. Would've looked really cool

[@anmaralhrby9817]

🤮🤮🤮🤮

[@Rhetorican]

Good morning 🌄 small correction. The architect's name is Rem Koolhaas not Rem Koolhaus 😉

[@hafsa27197]

I would add a vertical garden on the piramid cemetery

[@aayushsingh9717]

😍💫

[@KG-zr2me]

Yes, Rem again. 😂😂

[@dertythegrower]

You missed Jacque Fresco and his Utopia which was even highlighted by Larry King in the 70s. Please do one on that, its similar to this and never became true (but was called genius by millions of followers)

[@dertythegrower]

Oh, and the BBC since youre over in Europe.. he was even highlighted by your tax dollars, ha

[@deathseal9844]

not gonna lie but india tower look like a building from fantasy game but i love to see them in reailty.

[@NaomiRo83]

I, personnaly am surprised zedaph tower isn't hear.

[@drcringe7873]

I'd like to see people make the Towers of Babel again. That some investors or the Iraq-government decide to build it (just as the paintings). That would be super-cool.

[@IbrahimMohammed-pq9in]

I would like to see crystal island. And you should at least make videos on other companies or tech contents not Tesla Tesla all the time.

[@user-ly6bs6ob6t]

Crystal island in Moscow would never be built, not a chance: since the loss of financial backing, the potential site has been sold and an amusement park (Island of Dreams) now stands there Source: living in Moscow and having access to Google Maps

[@sankalpgupta1556]

India tower is never happening because of AAI

[@peelysl]

😆

[@rebel6809]

When I become a grown man I will make this possible

[@peelysl]
