cool but this wouldn't work where I live, to much wind, more than 10 feet and the wind would wipe it out in one day.

from the picture, it doesn't look like it's a free standing tower...

isn't that cheating?

Warezme, based on the picture it has wires helping to secure it. The wind wouldn't be an issue.

The current windspeed in denmark would still be an issue!

"All that's left is for Chile to respond, by going even higher!"

We'll definitely build a taller one XD!

Now we only need to figure out where we get half the amount of children Brazil has (we're like 6M people over here at Santiago and São Paulo has like 12M, rofl).

Anyway, nice going. Good to see children enjoying life over there after that terrible thing at the school 8(

Cheers!

Haha, I remember Top Gear's James May built a LEGO house in the UK- it was hilarious- everything was LEGO- artwork, furniture, even the toilet and the sinks (which also had water piped into the house so they would work) turns out LEGO is crap for building actually.

Because the fact they are Lego's and not designed for such huge construction I am sure that the wires holding it up have to be of a specific specification.

LEGO is LEGO; it IS designed for that. They could've done the hight with the proper construction, but i'll bet it would've taken 3x the amount of bricks (if not more).

@steelcity1981 - best not do it in America. Law suit waiting to happen

James' LEGO house was amazing, too bad it crumbled and shattered on most walls, furnitures.

Imagine the box that lot came from.

Nice one, Brazil
