[Nereo]

I wonder if it will ever actually me made though

[Bomb-Head]

Imagine it got stuck :| you wouldn't even be on the same planet as the engineers haha.

I wonder how long it would take to reach the 'top'?

[SUPERhanna.]

omg, i get scared when i'm on a high floor in a hotel, i think i'd die being at the top of that!

[FlyingJesus]

I had one of them it was pretty cool for 5 minutes but got boring quick

[Smiddy]

Use the same technology as the taipei 101!

[PaintYourTarget]

I imagine that to be part of the plot of Die Hard 5...
John McClane has some sort of elevator fetish.

[GommeInc]

And it'll all come down in about 5 minutes when struck by a plane / meteor. I can't see it being very safe to be honest :P

[GrebSkeb]

Imagen if where it was built there was huge wind storms down below. down there it would be rocking like 3-10cm side to side up there you would be like 5-30ish metere ARGH im going on it as soon as its built n safe! anyone ocming with me? oo images wearign a dead strong suite and jumping while ur in the cloyund to parachute down! weeee!

[Hiro]

Just imagine that being made into a rollercoaster ride!
Elevator free falling!

21.7k miles, that would take aaaaaaaaages.
