What software did you use to make the skyscrapers?
I'm desperate to know
Umm i little like
ALL these calamity's that are going on around the world will lead up to a Sunday Law Which will be The Mark Of The Beast, Those that keep Gods seventh day sabbath will be prohibited from buying and sell and persecuted. Jesus is coming are you ready?
VPN smh 🤦♂️
You forgot that the majority of the apartments, especially in the cube, would be positioned in the middle without any windows... Doesn't sound too great to me
This video is just a concept idea 😄 We considered adding holes to the cube to let more light into the middle apartments, but that would have made the math calculations even more complex.
That's why Judge Dredd is a dystopia, people live on these megablocks (cube here)
What do you need windows for if you live in a 💩hole like NYC?
@@MegaBuildsYT holes? Yeah nobody would want his only window or so to be directed to a hole....
10% of volume is already considered for this reason. Also per capita area will include open and chase space.
The first objection that comes to my mind isn't the cost or the lack of windows for most of the apartments.
It's the physical limitations to building such a heavy structure.
Every floor has to bear the weight of all those above it, which means that the proposed structure would collapse unless it's built with extreme materials that simply don't exist.
Parking, anyone?
Thats right
The reality is that there are no materials today that would be used for this build. Your concept
of what can be done to build something like this is relative to a night in the 1600s understanding how his cell phone works, Facebook or TickTock… Fast forward 200 years of growth and you would have no idea how things work..

You could have like seperate supports for each layer but the building would probably be as tall and thick with this method
Bro, imagine how long you would need to wait for the elevator💀
It should be a really extremely advanced elevator more than the modern ones we have today
3:59
At this point developing portal technology would probably be a necessary side project
just like how they were able for a building over million floors then they also can make a well developed elevator

A building with over a million floors will never be larger than a library. A library will always have more stories.
took me 3 seconds to realize that this wasn't a reference to the library of babel
bro💀
lol
good one, a human can hold an exabyte of information, there are 8 billion humans, so 8 billion humans, there are around 150 petabytes of information in all books ever written, its less than a million times of what the humans could hold
I don't think any library has 1 million books.
Imagine waiting for the elevator in the morning when everyone's trying to get to work lol
This idea would work but not the way you present it. Cut the building up in 4-6 pieces to make it less tall and then put everyone in those 4-6 structures. The structures could be build next to each other, or in a grid. That would be more realistic.
Isn't the earth that one building that can house everyone though?
You have a great point.
Exactly
Good one
@@isaiahc8390 🤣🤣🤣
@@isaiahc8390 huh
One little objection to estimating build time. These buildings are mostly limited by ability to build high, you can relatively easily scale on surface, but you can´t just build 2 floors of height at the same time. Also the biggest material problems aren´t concrete or steel, but the foundation-soil/rock.
3:39 i actually just had a heart attack for a second
i thought the plane was gonna hit the building for some reason lmaoo
If u get heart attacks over things like that then you should be dead rn 👍

Seems like pyramid shape can actually return for such big human hives. Also it would be related to social status to move higher in the pyramid building, which reflects our society a lot.
Interesting idea
No.
We live in a society

I think the biggest thing that most people dont consider with this thought experiment is that they assume it would be more complex than buildings we have now, which go up incredibly quickly if the funding is there. The only reason these new and tall buildings take years, is because theyre experimental and pieces on the outside and inside need to be custom made and shaped, which costs more money and time.
Plus even if every person got their own apartment, it defeats the purpose if every residence is the size of a house. The whole idea is to have it as compact as possible.
The places would have to be at most, the size of a double wide single floor trailer home for single people, and then maybe double that for families, which would make it considerably smaller and simpler to build.
“who we nuking now”
Pop
A wind turbine on the building would be unbearably noisy. This was already discovered the hard way by the Strata SE1 building in London. The turbines had to be turned off because of the noise!
.
3:40 imagine an attack on that building like 9/1
Hope a deadly virus doesn't get into the ventilation systems of this building.
Haaaaaa😂😂😂😂I can relate
that would be the end of humanity
Or worse , somebody rips off a fart on the bottom floor and it gets sucked up a vent .
I agree with most of what you say, except for the amount of time it would take to build said cube. Because the cube is so wide, you'd be able to have a lot more people working on it at the same time which would drastically reduce the build time. Just look at how many buildings we have now that not only house everyone, but also house all the businesses.
Which is another thing you didn't factor into your project. A building so massive would require space for shopping and entertainment businesses as well. Each level would require multiple theaters, grocery stores, swimming pools, parks, etc. It wouldn't be a building just for housing people, it would have to be a complete city on each floor and would double the size of the building.
Id like to see what the inside of this apartments would look like. layout, plumbing, sunlight exposure etc
It's interesting how as tech has advanced, humans no longer find it reasonable for megaprojects to take generations to build, but how the hell else would you build something huge that's still structurally sound? The pyramids weren't built in a decade, and they've lasted for longer than anything we create now will ever last, despite the exponential increases in engineering and tech advances
Part of why they last is because they are not as actively used as our skyscrapers or as limited in space (it’s much wider but our cities don’t allow us to build as wide unless you have huge funding)
Megastructures have already began to lose their sway on being so magnificent, it used to be for the fact it was such a large icon to a city, now they’re nearly being seen as useless, you can even bring it back to infrastructures, look at how many European city’s are ripping up the over the top highways that were built to replace it with greenery, sometimes it’s just not what’s needed
The pyramids are simply massive chunks of stone with a few narrow passageways inside. Furthermore they were never used since they are tombs constructed to not let people inside. That’s why they still exist.
The pyramids isn't a building, it's mostly solid with a few tunnels and rooms inside. It's a tomb for dead bodies, not for living humans. We can easily build something that's larger and way more durable with modern technology, but it's just a pointless waste of resource and time.
There could be a solution to get down the big tower faster , we build a giant long waterslide lol

The most compact version wouldn't be a cube, it would be something between a hemisphere and a sphere. It would be humungous, though.
Depends on if you have reuirements for the housing. Curved walls are not very practical. Meaning you would need a cube inside the sphere, making it just larger.
@@KarvidSR At the sizes being talked about, the curvature would be negligible, almost. Anyway, buckyball type construction can always be done, replacing curved sections with triangular flat ones.
humanity:¨ builds a mega skyscraper that fits the entire population of earth¨ Suicide bombers: ¨its boom time¨
Mega-skyscraper?? More like a humongous, pointy, sharp, towering, New York, Tokyo, London, Hong Kong in a tower space tickler???
I believe the deduction of time needed to build the cube is potentially problematic. Think about how many years it took for the world to build houses for all people in the world? Have we taken 1 million years? Nope. It only took decades to do so, think about the average life of houses in the world.
3:40 that plane caught me off guard 😬
3:39 almost remade history lol
It would be easier to use a tall mountain such as Chomolungma, Matterhorn, Kilimanjaro... and construct the building in and around the mountain and adjacent ones using the natural mountain as the superstructure.
Blocking aircraft, flight paths, etc... with everyone in one building why would there need to be air travel on the current scale we have today?
For reference, with the cube, the ENTIRE population of Indiana, Alaska, Delaware, AND the American Samoa could live inside of it. Or the entire city of New York.
Possibly the whole population of Australia

Crazy animations! Great Job!!
The maths are deffo out on the NYCube taking 5,100 years and Worldcube taking millions of years. Sure the Burj took a fair amount of time, but look at it's footprint and workable space (the ground floor has a footprint of 0.3km). The calculations you did, didn't factor in how much more simultaneous work could be getting done at the same time, esp when the Big Cube has like a footprint 400x the Burj's, so it would take closer to 400 years to make, not 4.8 million.
Definitely agree that if these buildings would be built, one would need a construction crew to rival those that built the pyramids. A construction force the size and budget of a military. An army of workers and specialists building, plumbing, wiring, and furnishing the floors in waves as at ascends.
@@neodragon1988 OR just automated construction plants building modular units that are then brought into place with mobile cranes and lifts. The structural frame would be made of simple, easy to assemble standard sized posts and beams - though either you have to limit heights and weight loads to use steel or concrete, or use exotic materials like carbon nanotubes. Basically like building with giant sized LEGO blocks. Modern shipyards do this now for large ships of all types: cargo, passengers and even military ships.
@@krisgonynor689 reminds me of a vid I saw recently where the refit an oil tanker and part of the process was lifting the bridge section and adding another floor for living space then they placed the bridge section on top of the new floor and welded it into place turning a 2 story bridge section into 3 stories.
3:40 looks like a repeat of history until you realize its not.
Imagine clogging the toilet for every person in the world with 2AM arbys
Comparing the duration of the project with that of the Burg Khalifa and coming to conclusion that it will take 5100 years means the machinery and people involved in the process are the same as that of the Burg Khalifa, which is not correct. A project if that magnitude will mean a lot of people from all over the world will be on site to execute it. It also means, machinery and other logistics will be in abundance. If the design is perfect, a lot of different companies will be working on different aspects of the project at the same time, and the project will be completed very early. For an Eleven kilometer cube can be completed in 10 years
Lol you crazy the world doesnt have enough steel to make a building rhat large

nah, i ain't bein' neighbors with Karen in a claustrophobic cube
If 8 Million people lived in one building, you would need so many elevators, that it would make the building 10 times larger. If every morning at least 5 million people to have to get up and leave the building for work or school. You would need at least 2.5 million elevators to support the queue.
well you could also make it wide like the switzerland building
Exactly that makes more sense and is more practical
"What if everyone lived in one building?"
We would need Judge Dredd to keep law and order.
imagin someone bombed the bottom of the building and we all died lmfao
imagine travelling hundreds of corridors and floors just to visit your friend lol

Imagine all of the vloggers in this building.🤣
bigger the area, more manpower can be utilised...its not like building 1 residential building with 1 floor and 1 room would take atleast 28 days (concrete full strength in 28 days) doesnt mean burj khalifa with 1000 rooms or (idk exact room) would take 1000 months or whatsoever.
Realistically the cube would actually cost 1.2 trillion USD to buy, then 3,085 YEARS to construct! Plus I dont think like 98% of people will like the design, because there isn't any windows or psychical contact with the outside world on the inside (which is like 99.99% of the cube) and horrible crammed living conditions (for all of human civilization) would cause disease on a scale hitherto undreamt of. Honestly I could go on and on about all the ways of how the crammed living conditions would make the entire project go down the shitter (morale-wise). But for the sake of time, I think you get my point.

The problem us that the moor floors you have the more elevators you need and at some point you are losing more floor space than is reasonable for the about of added floor space per added floor.
In essence at a certain point the building will proportional be more elevators than usable floor space.

That is an interesting concept, but what about all the crimes that police would need to check into just circumventing all those floors would probably be impossible
I think, we need to build some high buildings to replace the small homes and slum areas, specially in poor countries or provinces of rich countries. Where some people are not able to make a good home for themselves and forced to live in poor condition. From this we can use remaining land for agricultural or business or for making another ambitious project
or to make a home for wildlife
Looks like we need mega elevator station here, exactly with the masinist to avoid free fall and crush. We need horizontal elevator af.😂😂 Good idea btw

You wanna know what a building looks like that can house everyone in the world? Look at a Hive City from Warhammer 40k
If teleportation was invented, then these building concepts would be ideal
What software did you use to make the skyscrapers?
some software that u cant use with ur brain
I would prefer a building like that in Switzerland. A approximately normal high and width block of flats but significantly longer
Could also wind it around a lot like a spiral so it is super compacted and have the space between the walls as open areas for farming, parks, markets etc.
You forgot to mention the inevitable nightmare dealing with 20,000 city inspectors and the million page code compliant handbook
For me personally the videos does a great job going over the math however, If this building was theoretically build for the entire world the cost would be less it would be build much faster and materials would come much quicker due to every construction company building it and materials would be recycled off old buildings that would be seen irrelevant now, Great video tho!
(Edit)
After reviewing some comments (from the video), We would also need it to be build more like a rectangle with hallways in between meaning all apartments would have natural light and balconies, Further into this, We would have every single recourse to make the building already and we would also not need to increase the building due to people living together and ofc families and deaths.
5:15 it cost 1.5 billion to build the burj khalifa
I am just wandering how many days will take to come down from the top of the building 😅
Its likely highly unlikely building a cube 800 times the volume of the burj would cost also 800 times the money. It would likely be much less than that given the efficiency of just building larger individual sections, enstead of 80 separate ones for each one.
Building one singular giant shell is a hell of a lot less intensive than building 800 smaller ones.

building that tall, have you considered the rotation of earth? That tall building will even have effect on rotation of earth
According to my calculations the 1115m3 cube would only house 9.24 million. It would need 945,000 floors to house everyone.

Don't forget that the World Tower would be moving EXTREMELY fast. On the ground we are moving at about 1000 miles per hour with the earth's rotation, but that isn't the case with the Tower as it's farther away but connected to the Earth's rotation. The tip of the Tower would be moving about 1900 miles per hour, about 2 and a half times the speed of sound.
