A total waste of money as a sporting venue. Capacity 55,000. Very rarely reaches a 10th of that for sporting events, unless Premier League football teams come to visit.
Its not just for a sporting venue, Its also for concerts and formal events that occur in Singapore. Anyways, Singapore have tons of money that doesnt go to use, so why not?
Not what i was expecting but much better. I liked your idea to base your list on the materials, it was fascinating. My personal favourites the cathedral of Florence and the stadium in Singapore.
@@andreamorganti6628 me too. I think it's because we live in Florence. Living in Florence, and seeing the dome everyday, you get so used to it that going to visit it feels useless. All other things are so close to you, that you don't feel the urgent need to visit them, as you can visit them any time you want, while when you are abroad you feel like you have to visit as much as you can, since it is the only opportunity. As a result, I almost know more about other cities than my city, Florence xD
Actually, the Pantheon was finished before the time of Hadrian. It burned down and it was rebuild. The completion of the second building was during Hadrians rule in approximately 126 AD
I was thinking the same thing. The Seattle-Tacoma area is home to some of the world's most impressive architectural and engineering feats, and yet it gets so little attention. Oh well, that just makes it the best kept secret.
I think domes just automatically make things look so much better and modern by how it looks and how grand it looks when placed into a circluar building or structures.
Now THAT was interesting AND informative!!! Very difficult to comprehend the how the builders of 1,000yrs ago could conceive AND execute such mind blowing structures.
Loved this video but also would have loved to see more materials like largest marble dome, I believe that goes to the Minnesota state capital? Great video tho, I love domes👌🏼
Thanks! We would love to hold it but the strain on our infrastructure would just be too great as of now. Do visit us though!!! I am a born-raised Singaporean who would be overjoyed to have such an honourable event hosted in my country.
Honorable mentions should probably go to Civic Arena in Pittsburgh which was the largest dome of its time and opened up, and the Salt Lake tabernacle which is impressive given it was built in the 1860s, in the middle of nowhere, with shipbuilding technology and was for the longest time the largest wooden dome on earth.
Appreciate all your videos which frankly is like a university imparting such tremendous intelligent knowlege to all. Thanking you kindly. Btw you didnt mention the fact that the retractable roof of the Singapore National Stadium is also the largest digital screen inthe world if i recall reading it somewhere - both the internal & external sides.
The University of Illinois Assembly hall was the first edge supported concrete folded plate structure athletic stadium in the world. It clear spans 400 feet (120m) with the edge made of miles of stressed steel cable creating a tension ring. The ring replaces columns and arches used to support conventional domes. The dome weighs an estimated twelve million tons.
Have you seen the dome in Murmansk stadium (built by a Texan firm) built from cast in place solid foam and reinforced porous concrete layer outside of the foam?
After the Superior Dome in Michigan as the largest wooden-domed structure in the world with 535 feet, the second of this type is the Tacoma Dome with 530 feet.
Hey loved the video but theres a stadium in Sweden thats called "globen" which is globe in swedish and i feel like that building is big and should be on here.
Is the "Global Vipassana Pagoda" really a proper dome? I don't see the hemispherical element. It appears to be more of a tower than a dome. Specifically a tower sitting on a hollow conical base.
I love your videos guys thank you so much for all the work and research you put in .. can you please make a video About the florence dome i hear it's An engineering marvel
checkout the Cargolifter-Werfthalle in Germany 210m or 689feet. It was build from a startup that tried engineering huge blimps to carry massive weights. Good old Germany and their blimps :,D
I watched to see if the Hagia Sophia and the Houston Astrodome were mentioned, but was disappointed. I don't care about the Astrodome but just thought it would likely appear in the list, but I'm really surprised the Hagia Sophia was not included. It's dome is a very nice example to teach about the architectural strength and weaknesses of dome structures.
Do fabric domed buildings not count? Like the old roof at BC place stadium used for the Vancouver opening Vancouver ceremonies. It was a Teflon dome that was supported by the air pressure inside the stadium
I never knew that the Superior Dome was the largest made out of wood, even tho I live 2 hours away my entire life and have played soccer(football) and ran track there. That shocked me when I saw that.
But the largest indoor dome arena is the Philippine Arena which also have 55,000 seating capacity.. originally it is designed to contain 100,000 seats but instead of doing that they made other area as hotel, different stablishments
I’ve stood outside of the Pantheon and I’ve been inside the Norfolk Scope numerous times. The rest are a no go for me. I have walked on the dome that is over the flat Earth 3 times.
You went from religious or state buildings to sports domes and did not mention the Houston Astrodome? I know you mentioned certain criteria but those other some stadiums wouldn't be there if it wasn't for the Astrodome
1. It would have been nice to see interior shots of #3, the pagoda in India. 2. And the Florence dome is larger than St. Peter's in Rome? I thought the latter was the largest masonry dome in the world. No?
So, when this year world cup football in Rusia start, is it valid the largest dome of the world will be Cosmos Arena, Samara that consist about 2000 feet diameter??
We mention the Cosmos Arena in this video, it’s made of steel so didn’t feature here (Singapore wins that category): th-cam.com/video/jJIcRRgzaks/w-d-xo.html
Factually wrong information. The dome of Hagia Sophia in Istanbul was the largest pendentive dome in the world until the completion of St. Peter's Basilica, and has a much lower height than any other dome of such a large diameter.
How could you have a video about domes and not mention the Astrodome, which was a modern architectural marvel when it opened in 1965??? For bettor or worse, it ushered in a new age of architecture when it came to stadiums. It also made it to where you could have sports in very hot places as air conditioning became available. It also ushered in the invention of artificial turf like Astroturf. It had a pretty big impact.
I think it was referenced indirectly by the year, but yeah, it should have been mentioned. (it would have been good to get a brief look of the Kingdome too since it was mentioned)
Your videos are aleays interesting and entertaining, but I can't truly understand that scale of those structures since they're only in Imperial measures. Please use metric as well!
All I could think of while I watch this video was damn that is a great way to present the subject and... All the bad ways it could have been made. -High pitched techno music all the way -Narrator on crack/cocaine -Violent flashy transitions -The use of memes -Loosely rounded numbers and other approximations -Top 10 format Thank You B1M!
FivePointsVids did a countdown on the worst collegiate sports stadium, and the Superior Dome was ridiculed with “why the dome is not sponsored by Terminax?”

I've always loved the look of the Singapore stadium, it's just different and for that reason beautiful
Couldn’t agree more.
It is a truly remarkable feat of engineering. It also looks a bit like a retractable telescope.
A total waste of money as a sporting venue. Capacity 55,000. Very rarely reaches a 10th of that for sporting events, unless Premier League football teams come to visit.

@@MrScall35 It is not a waste of money. The new 55,000-seated stadium is built to literally replace the old 55,000-seated stadium.

Thanks!! ...and yes, we completely agree. The Florence dome is almost timeless.

I live near the Norfolk Scope and never knew it held any cool records. cool!

Never get tired of you videos. Keep up the good work
Good choice on going with variety of building materials. Amazing what the ancients could accomplish!
Great theme for this weeks video! Cheers :)
You're welcome ;-)
As always your videos are fascinating. Keep up the good work
Thanks! We will! 😉
I really like the new content keep up the good work !!
Thanks!! ✊️✊️
I knew the National Stadium in SG was big, but the biggest dome in the world? Impressive.
It would be nice of you guys to include the metric system in the text overlays for us from the rest of the world too!
We always use both imperial and metric in the narration and subtitles!
Dang, no mention of the Tacoma dome, which has a larger volume, but not diameter ... :-) Thanks for this video! Interesting as always.
Sorry! We'll make it up to the Tacoma Dome. Somehow.
I was thinking the same thing. The Seattle-Tacoma area is home to some of the world's most impressive architectural and engineering feats, and yet it gets so little attention. Oh well, that just makes it the best kept secret.
I love these videos... They reflect the work and effort of the publisher just to entertain us!
Surprised the Tacoma Dome isnt on here for largest Wooden Dome
This video is really good!! I learned so much, keep it up
Thanks! We will! 👍👍
I think domes just automatically make things look so much better and modern by how it looks and how grand it looks when placed into a circluar building or structures.

Thank you!! ✊️✊️
Simply fascinating! Thank you!
Loved the choice of the soundtrack for your videos, Nice one!
When I realized that under the Singapore stadium's dome there is a 7,5 hectares surface I could understand how big it is, incredible!
What about Toronto's SKY DOME "ROGER Center"? Largest moving ROOF?
I'm from Norfolk, Virginia and grew up near the Scope and never knew it held that title.
The wooden dome category should give honorable mention to the Northern Arizona University athletic facility dome which spans 500 feet.
Just now seeing this yess I live this channel
Now THAT was interesting AND informative!!!
Very difficult to comprehend the how the builders of 1,000yrs ago could conceive AND execute such mind blowing structures.
Very informative piece as always. I think there is a typo for the segment on the Florence cathedral dome - ‘masonry’, not ‘masonary’.
Loved this video but also would have loved to see more materials like largest marble dome, I believe that goes to the Minnesota state capital? Great video tho, I love domes👌🏼
Great shout! Sorry about that!
Would love to see the olympics be held in Singapore
Thanks! We would love to hold it but the strain on our infrastructure would just be too great as of now. Do visit us though!!! I am a born-raised Singaporean who would be overjoyed to have such an honourable event hosted in my country.
@Neel Javia Singapore already hosted the Olympics in 2010 Youth Olympic Games

When I was growing up, in the 80's, the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, Washington, USA was the largest wood dome in the world. I guess it lost that title.
It still is by volume, which likely means it's taller too.
I was hoping to see the Rogers Centre (Older citizens would call it by it's former name Skydome) in Toronto
After the Superior Dome in Michigan as the largest wooden-domed structure in the world with 535 feet, the second of this type is the Tacoma Dome with 530 feet.
upvote for the Scope, and the Admirals. played there a couple seasons
Great!
Hey loved the video but theres a stadium in Sweden thats called "globen" which is globe in swedish and i feel like that building is big and should be on here.
I love and like your voice ❤️❤️❤️
Singapore, 6M people living on a postage stamp, very impressive.
Impressive developments in South East Asia!

What if you flipped one over and launched a beyblade in there

Really interesting point.... and something we completely overlooked!! You burst our bubble (dome).
eggball and football*
you have been corrected.
What about about the MIT world peace University dome in Pune, India...that is also a record holder I suppose?
The Tacoma Dome remains the largest dome-covered space in the world made of wood, and the second largest wooden dome in the world.
The Mercedes Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA is the largest fixed domed structure in the world.
I never knew that the Superior Dome was the largest made out of wood, even tho I live 2 hours away my entire life and have played soccer(football) and ran track there. That shocked me when I saw that.
By diameter it is.
Tacoma Dome largest by volume.
Does the Araneta Coliseum in Manila fits in this category?
I thought it was one of the clear span domes in the world.
But the largest indoor dome arena is the Philippine Arena which also have 55,000 seating capacity.. originally it is designed to contain 100,000 seats but instead of doing that they made other area as hotel, different stablishments
I’ve stood outside of the Pantheon and I’ve been inside the Norfolk Scope numerous times. The rest are a no go for me. I have walked on the dome that is over the flat Earth 3 times.
Wow.. the video is really nice.. but just have one doubt.. how abt the one in Qatar.. ??
Which one?
The B1M Aspire dome..
Great dome, but as its steel - and not larger than the Singapore National Stadium - it didn't feature on this list. Sorry!!
The B1M thanks for the info team
Houston Astrodome should get a mention here.
You went from religious or state buildings to sports domes and did not mention the Houston Astrodome? I know you mentioned certain criteria but those other some stadiums wouldn't be there if it wasn't for the Astrodome
What about THE CENTENNIAL HALL in Wroclaw Poland, with dome 65m in diameter?
I don't think the first picture of Norfolk Scope IS of Norfolk Scope. The "legs" don't match and there is no terrain nearby as seen in the background.
i'm 3d printing a pantheon model right now! lol
Nice! 👍👍
1. It would have been nice to see interior shots of #3, the pagoda in India.
2. And the Florence dome is larger than St. Peter's in Rome? I thought the latter was the largest masonry dome in the world. No?
I expected the philippine arena was on the list 🇵🇭
Great video, just one minor pronunciation mistake: It's not “vispa sana“ but “vipassana.“ Cheers :)
A new stadium in Los Angeles will open next year. I wonder if it'll make the list.
So, when this year world cup football in Rusia start, is it valid the largest dome of the world will be Cosmos Arena, Samara that consist about 2000 feet diameter??

Aya Sofya Constantinople ❤
So we should be calling it millennium tent!
The largest roof in the world is the Philippine Arena. 😊
We could use domes to creator pressured colony’s on the moon, we could put on over the a creator and create a small atmosphere inside
Shame there was no actual footage of the Singapore national stadium in this video.
No actual footage??
Rome was just remarkable, shame the Italians won't put any money into digging up the temples, villas etc that lurk complete underground
Philippine Arena should be included.
For me the Singapore stadium isn't a dome because of it's retracrable Roof
The Duomo's dome isn't a partial sphere.
You forgot the impressive Hagia sophia
Your videos are aleays interesting and entertaining, but I can't truly understand that scale of those structures since they're only in Imperial measures. Please use metric as well!
