It also really helps show how overly simply how of the biggest buildings seem. Minas Tirith has all these details of smaller buildings all around it, but then the Senate Building and stuff are just big round solid shapes that look insane given how detailed the city around them looks.
@@an1m8r Hey now, Minas Tirith is a city, it's supposed to have several houses and stuff on it. The Senate is a single building planned with a design and a function in mind. You don't see many buildings as rich in detail as Minas Tirith, do you?
@@theviniso Yes, but a lot of other star wars stuff does this very fractally effect over it to get a sense of scale- Star Destroyers, Death Star, the works, they get these "chasms" and almost topography to them that gives you a sense of scale, that this Senate model at least seems to lack.
Guys, he missed the most legendary building of all, the Doofenshmirtz Evil Inc. Tower Edit: But jokes aside tho, this video is really well made, It is BEYOND amazing.
Fun Fact: The Citadel (Half Life 2) actually goes down very far, even further down than the Citadel core. Obviously we never get to see the very low levels but it is crazy to find out how deep it goes.
i believe this showed how far above ground, not below. and as one of half lifes biggest fans, i want to know what kind of Aperture Science Laboratories scale facility they've got going on down there
The HL2 Citadel is one of the most ominous visuals in any video game. It feels artificial, alien, and oppressive, and the fact that you only see it from a distance for most of the game makes it even more ominous. And when you are in the citadel and start ascending towards the top and you see the city below, with only the city lights visible, it sells the scale of the Citadel perfectly.
Get the same feeling in little nightmares 2 with the signal tower. But unlike hl2 the signal tower you don’t see the outside until chapter 4. But I like how the citadel is one of the first things you see in hl2 just after you leave the Train station
honestly could've ended it with some of the most insane structures in fiction; the imperial palace from 40k and the mega structure from Blame! tho at that size they do go a bit beyond a 'building' i suppose
@@chrissonofpear1384 yes and no, the size is just the building itself, the rest of it is just really long cable and then at the top theres a space station. The majority of it is just cable
@ZORG I thought it was Boston Either way it doesn't really matter since it's just a really blurry texture to represent city 17 It's probably not to scale Anyway you can get the correct scale for the citadel from just extracting the model from the game and making it 16x larger (objects in the source engine 3D skybox are projected to look enlarged by that size by default)
The citadel from Half Life 2 is actually roughly around the same height as the International Space Elevator because the model you used (While being from the actual game.) has been scaled down to just barely go over clouds, adding its real height above the clouds, as well as the thousands of feet/meters it has going underground it may even be taller!
The model hasn't been scaled down in any way, what you even talking about? Also, all of them go underground, every building needs a foundation, things are measured from ground to top, not underground to top.
When you realize that the biggest building in this video was actually made by humans just to imprison one single person for all of his life only to entertain people
I feel we're slowly going towards that in the entertainment industry. A non-stop live stream of someone's entire life. who's been imprisoned in a fictional town born not knowing where he truly is from
Looked back to see, and saw the _Truman Show_ dome is the proper height to allow real jetliners to fly at cruising speed over Truman's head... that's decent forethought
yeah i find that actual bullshit it feels like entering dragonsreach feels like double the house from up. something went wrong there or someone explain.
@@ravelsparel4055 basically the back of dragons reach is used to capture the dragon which you go into during the main quest *unless your a filthy speedrunner* and the room itself is fucking huge
@Rikka The Second A remote island location would work wonders for this plan; in fact, there are several real-life islands where satellites aren't allowed to take pictures with enough clarity to tell trees apart from each other because governments have secret facilities there.
I just played Subnautica the other day, and technically the Quarantine Enforvement Platform also includes the parts below the ocean surface, which would make it considerably larger than the model in this video
Same about many other buildings in the video. I think including this parameter wouldn't be fair, since we don't have data about the other structure 's foundation dimensions.
@@werter4569 they did it with Minas Tirith. The tallest (or should i say, highest) tower is built on a rock formation, which would not make it as tall as showed in the video (if that was the case then my uncle’s house which is on a hill +1000 meters over sea level would be taller than the Burj Khalifa).
Its even scarier knowing that it was built on a planet that is only a few slaves, a bit of water, and a small chunk of land in the eyes of the combine.
@@unapersonatonta5872 fun fact after that film was released many people were reported thinking that they were in a tv show and all of the people they have met were just actors and so some psychologists began to interview these people and then they created a new delusion some people might experience called the Truman show delusion named after the movie
@@silasli570 Idk much about GoT's wall but AoT's walls were man-made. I'm assuming GoT's ice wall is a naturally occurring geographic feature which allowed it to be much taller.
I had no idea that the Imperial Palace people were talking about this whole time was actually the former Jedi Grand Temple after conversion. It still looked fine on outside but I can't imagine what Palpatine had done to the inside.
Imperial paternity, Palpatine tried to teach Darth Vader how to be a good Emperor but he was too affected so he was sent to a private school and Palpatine's new wife moved into the palace.... Sadly, years later, the divorce ended with half the temple lost in favor of the wife and Palpatine was forced to steal goverment funs to fullfill his luxuries, what made a cheap manufacturer would be the main productor of what later was known as the most defective imperial blasters in the universe.
Huge Lord of the Rings fan and not a fan of Dragon Ball but I really want this comment to exist because I still think it's funny. Sauron: I see everything nothing can stop me Mhahahahahahahaha Korin Tower: soooooo..............watcha doing down there
@@akosleoszilagyi2529 That is actually the official explanation. Barad-Dur was created and held up by Sauron's magic, hence why it started falling immediately after the destruction of the ring.
If that's the actual height of barad dur, I'm shocked. Now it's not so surprising to think half of mordor collapsed into an abyss from the destruction of the tower lol
@@the_spaghetti_slayer2437 and the other 2 death stars as well. Some of that task is already in place, since these come prepackaged with their relative scales (as officially documented, and even illustrated, in The Force Awakens).
The most annoying thing about doing this must be the fact that you never know when the next popular video game or movie comes out with a ton of people disappointed the huge-ass thing from it isn’t mentioned
If they are too dumb to see that it came out earlier...they should not even play the game given that their peabrains wouldn't make sense of anything either.
there is no true way to comprehend the height of Doug Dimmadome's hat. The moment you try to measure it, it will become bigger so it will be always out of your reach.
The largest Hive City can house more than 10x the current population of Earth. Even crammed in like sardines, such a city would dwarf anything on this list!
The Imperial Palace is a lot bigger then that because it pretty much covers the entire european continent and it even extends into what was the atlantic ocean.
thanks for including the Glass Tower. Towering Inferno is overlooked these days; it's not a great disaster movie, but it's better than some of the newer stuff, IMHO.
Basicly any building thats 256 Meters or smaller can be made in minecraft. It saddens me that it is not more then that. For example maybe 300/350 or so.
@@DrBawsaq I think the video got it wrong. This implies that could could only fit just over one sideways car in the front entrance when in the game, it seems like you could fit at least 3 or 4 cars sideways. This video does the castle wrong imo
I like how you placed everything around the first buildings so that once in a while the camera had to put them back on frame and remind us of how gargantuan the buildings later in the video are compared to the first couple of examples, especially for buildings like Carl's House and The Simpson's House, as those in particular are easier for the average viewer to visualize being based on real world architecture. It's a whole lot easier to imagine the gigantic scale of the big buildings when we know what they look like compared to our own houses.
@@LadyMcGiusti True, though to be fair, that's more of a city in space than a terrestrial building. Actually, at that size, High Charity could technically be classified as a small artificial moon, especially considering the first Death Star was roughly 1/4 that size and mistaken to be a moon itself.
@@LadyMcGiusti Indeed, maybe we need a follow up video comparing the relative sizes of space structures? It should include High Charity, Installation 4, the Ark, both Death Stars, Starkiller Base, the Dyson Sphere from Star Trek: The Next Generation, and so on...
Nice. This is one of the few ones where you feel like you can still see most of them at the end. 4:24 is a great shot. Minis Tirth was the biggest surprise, really expected it to be bigger.
Medieval cities were much, much smaller than the cities of today, with populations factors of ten less. For instance, in 1066 at the battle of Hastings, the entire population of England was about 3,400,000 people. Today, in New York city alone, there are almost 9 million.
Yeah Minas Tirith is much smaller in the movies than it really should be. It is also far more vertical than depictions in earlier book editions would dictate. Also, the Pelenor Fields are barren in the movies, while in the books they were covered in farmland. Just some ways that movies corrupt books.
@@silly_sceptic your logic should be banned from the earth's face forever, because when you say it was done by a lot of people, suddenly it is not so impressive anymore, which we don't talk about it here
This is great! If it ever gets revisited, it would be great to see Scrooge McDuck's Vault "The Money Bin" included in the list as he is widely considered the second richest fictional character of all time. At 59 meters tall it would come in right after Cinderella's Castle.
@@crysisrevelation6132 Depending on the list there are a few others who hit the top spot: T'Challa, Smaug, Carlisle Cullen... Santa Claus was on Forbes list of the Fictional 15 for years until they took him off when kids wrote in to insist he's not fictional (Scrooge McDuck became number one on their list that year).
I wonder if they dare to ever do it again, their games are very cinematic and high quality. I totally enjoyed the freedom that came with playing Jak II. The open world was something. They did it again in Jak 3 and I actually enjoyed it even more. Naughty Dog were always good, always.
I’m not sure how to feel about the idea that one of the grandest construction projects in the history of fiction; a remarkably massive undertaking that overshadows even space elevators... is nothing more than the stage for an in-universe television show. Probably the greatest architectural achievement in human history for that universe... all to set up the Truman Show.
I’m happy to see the Citadel from Half-life 2 in this Edit: I recently found out from a Half-Life: Alyx model that the citadel is 4.26 kilometers tall or around 14,000 ft. pbs.twimg.com/media/ESWrDrEXQAIqVZH?format=png&name=medium
digifalc0087 it isn’t too hard The 3D skybox objects in the game are scaled down by 16 times so just take the dimensions of the in game model and multiply them by 16
kg22backup the height is undetermined, all we have here is a theoretical calculation of how tall it might be. But it is still unknown, it could be A LOT bigger or it could only be about half a mile tall. Also the views from the game don’t mean anything there just there to show where the Citadel sits on the map.
Technically, the Minecraft Beacon in Bedrock Edition goes up to the world height, which is 320 blocks (meters). Also, this video deserves more comments. And one more thing, the “Imperial Palace” is the Jedi Temple.
@@vigneshkr7072 To make it worse, they also then have just something FROM the game (the white-gold tower or whatever. at least i don't remember that being in the movie)
Imagine just having a little cruise around new york and a purple tree house like building pops into existense. The boat slows down in time but then you look up and a purple boat or spaceship is falling towards you
you are not alone here, fellow Guardian-players. metaballstudios Ahahaa, yes (03:50). [chuckles] too be honest I actually thought that the Last City Old Tower (Destiny series) would've been a bit taller than the SNK Eldian-Paradisian walls, but As Tall as the Stark tower!? Not bad. [giving a thumbs up] Be Brave out there, fellow Guardian-players. (By the way, what about RASPUTIN'S Mindlab Core housing on Mars? can his count as a 'building' here too alongside the Last City Old Tower?)....
@Money Sharma Jeddah tower? It's building process has been frozen for like 2 years. Righ now, there's a 300m high part of the building, in the middle of desert.
The sweetspot of seeing Haven Palace & The Combine citadel in the same video is knowing both Jak & Half-Life’s sequels released a year apart from each other
If you're counting height of actual structure, the windbreak on the International Space Elevator from Ace Combat is significantly taller than anything else.
The space elevators in halo are 70,000 kilometers as they need to have their center of gravity above geosynchronous orbit otherwise they would collapse. He's only measuring the base of the structure not the total height including the tether that actually goes to orbit. Edited for a typo
Well yeah this discussion is a bit complicated cause its based on the most recent use of the building which is for imperial but I understand why everyone says it's the jedi temple
I must say, you are here sooner than expected Master Windu. In the name of the galactic senate of the republic, you are under arrest chancellor. Are you threatening me master Jedi? The senate will decide your fate. I am the Senate

I had no idea that the Imperial Palace people were talking about this whole time was actually the former Jedi Grand Temple after conversion. It still looked fine on outside but I can't imagine what Palpatine had done to the inside.
I imagine he had it fumigated.
Well I heard he purposely have removed the ornaments of the hall and pillars, the statues and all the carpets floor ...
Imperial paternity, Palpatine tried to teach Darth Vader how to be a good Emperor but he was too affected so he was sent to a private school and Palpatine's new wife moved into the palace.... Sadly, years later, the divorce ended with half the temple lost in favor of the wife and Palpatine was forced to steal goverment funs to fullfill his luxuries, what made a cheap manufacturer would be the main productor of what later was known as the most defective imperial blasters in the universe.

I love how Barad-Dur is still taller than so many of the Sci-Fi towers.
Well, Tolkien could have said one word to proof the height: magic.
@@akosleoszilagyi2529 That is actually the official explanation. Barad-Dur was created and held up by Sauron's magic, hence why it started falling immediately after the destruction of the ring.
If that's the actual height of barad dur, I'm shocked. Now it's not so surprising to think half of mordor collapsed into an abyss from the destruction of the tower lol
it took Sauron 600 years to build Barad-Dur using the power of the One Ring

KV CRAZYBOY I think you’re a good person

I like how you placed everything around the first buildings so that once in a while the camera had to put them back on frame and remind us of how gargantuan the buildings later in the video are compared to the first couple of examples, especially for buildings like Carl's House and The Simpson's House, as those in particular are easier for the average viewer to visualize being based on real world architecture. It's a whole lot easier to imagine the gigantic scale of the big buildings when we know what they look like compared to our own houses.
@Queen_PLATINE! Well, for people like me who haven't been to NYC, having a smaller frame of reference is helpful.
Then there's High Charity from Halo 2, which is 505 km tall!
@@LadyMcGiusti True, though to be fair, that's more of a city in space than a terrestrial building.

@@LadyMcGiusti Indeed, maybe we need a follow up video comparing the relative sizes of space structures? It should include High Charity, Installation 4, the Ark, both Death Stars, Starkiller Base, the Dyson Sphere from Star Trek: The Next Generation, and so on...
Nice. This is one of the few ones where you feel like you can still see most of them at the end. 4:24 is a great shot.
Minis Tirth was the biggest surprise, really expected it to be bigger.
Really?
I expected it to be smaller.
Medieval cities were much, much smaller than the cities of today, with populations factors of ten less.
For instance, in 1066 at the battle of Hastings, the entire population of England was about 3,400,000 people. Today, in New York city alone, there are almost 9 million.

Yeah Minas Tirith is much smaller in the movies than it really should be. It is also far more vertical than depictions in earlier book editions would dictate.

The open world was something. They did it again in Jak 3 and I actually enjoyed it even more.
Naughty Dog were always good, always.
I’m not sure how to feel about the idea that one of the grandest construction projects in the history of fiction; a remarkably massive undertaking that overshadows even space elevators... is nothing more than the stage for an in-universe television show.
Probably the greatest architectural achievement in human history for that universe... all to set up the Truman Show.
Chris Schoenthaler when you put it like that it sounds bonkers😂😂😂
The biggest television show production budget of all time too
Not to mention it was based on actual events. It wasn't so grand in size, obviously.
These are only examples, there are way bigger constructs out there in fiction, not necessarily manmade.
I’m happy to see the Citadel from Half-life 2 in this
Edit: I recently found out from a Half-Life: Alyx model that the citadel is 4.26 kilometers tall or around 14,000 ft. pbs.twimg.com/media/ESWrDrEXQAIqVZH?format=png&name=medium
Me too, such a fucking icon of a videogame building
Same! I was getting worried it wouldn't be included and was surprised it was that tall
It's smaller than I expected.
digifalc0087 it isn’t too hard
The 3D skybox objects in the game are scaled down by 16 times so just take the dimensions of the in game model and multiply them by 16
kg22backup the height is undetermined, all we have here is a theoretical calculation of how tall it might be. But it is still unknown, it could be A LOT bigger or it could only be about half a mile tall. Also the views from the game don’t mean anything there just there to show where the Citadel sits on the map.
Technically, the Minecraft Beacon in Bedrock Edition goes up to the world height, which is 320 blocks (meters). Also, this video deserves more comments. And one more thing, the “Imperial Palace” is the Jedi Temple.
After order 66, the jedi temple became Imperial Palace
The Imperial Palace WAS the Jedi Temple, I don't think you guys are managing to get that inside your heads.

If you're counting height of actual structure, the windbreak on the International Space Elevator from Ace Combat is significantly taller than anything else.
The diameter of the elevator was measured, not the height
the windbreak starts at minus 500 feet and goes up to over 40,000 feet
The Truman Show is the proof of flatearthers.
The space elevators in halo are 70,000 kilometers as they need to have their center of gravity above geosynchronous orbit otherwise they would collapse. He's only measuring the base of the structure not the total height including the tether that actually goes to orbit.
