Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Look at this thing. Don't let its height intimidate you- I hear this one's a real softy. In 2007, it surpassed the height of the then-tallest structure in the world and in 2010, it opened in Dubai, UAE. What's the name of this structure?
2. What's this thing all about? Look at it, showing off its elevators, spinning like a top at the top. Toronto's been suffering for decades with this pointy thing on its skyline. What's its name?
3. Sigh...not another of these things. Topping off at over half a kilometer, what is the name of this Taiwanese building which seems to think it's 'all that and more' by being so high and mighty?
4. Seriously? Couldn't be satisfied with one tower, so now we have two. That's great. Malaysia made double trouble with these two tall buildings in 1998, but what is their name?

9. A pyramid not found in Egypt? This unnecessarily out-of-place and (dare I say) high and mighty structure is taking up space in North Korea. What is its name?
