Pretty unbelievable

Thanks for wasting a bunch of my time, Utah Dave! That youtube channel, the B1M, is an amazing time sink. Pretty incredible though, the engineering advances that are allowing the explosion of supertall building construction. I did find it interesting that by their definitions, SLC doesn't have a single skyscraper. They define skyscrapers as being at least 150 M tall, supertall as 300 M, and megatall as 600 M (roughly works out to 500 feet, 1000 feet, and 2000 feet).
