looks like it represents the destruction of the alien mothership in the movie 'Independance day' - the flag lit by power by the ship at the base and representing how the US 'owned' them alien scum

1560? thats untrusable Wikipedia for you

Peter · #38 Posted **Aug 11, 2007, 5:11 AM**

I'll make a 1776 footer for USA. Maybe in Miami.

mikeR · #39 Posted **Aug 11, 2007, 6:05 AM**

I'm working on one in Switzerland it is going to be 1291 ft

the only problem with this competion is that everywhere in the world besides the united states uses meters so a building in feet would mean nothing to them.

Aleks · #40 Posted **Aug 11, 2007, 6:53 AM**

Switzerland is that old?!!!
ok well it wouldn't be significant to the world but it would be to Switzerland. and a building this tall would get attention it would be almost 1300 feet!!!!
