Well, you had a bunch of technical discrepancies and errors in your information presentation (like one place where you say 8 floors but it should have said 58) so I will give this video a 4 out of 10. However, you appear to have used actual photos of the building and construction. Plus, you brought up quite a few more issues and information that I had not heard elsewhere. So, I still liked your video. It was good but I'm a stickler for accuracy.
Correct. There is a high compression force, on that mud/sand subground base. AND, ALL THE WHILE - CREWS chew up the mud/sand, and the on-going hi-compression, causes a fluid motion, of mud, to less compressed areas ; '' where their drilling those piles.....'' Kind of like trying to patch, a hole in a tire, WHILE THERE IS AIR PRESSURE IN IT. doofus engineers'.......give your SPACE - LESS illogical H E A D A SHAKE.....before this tower, falls/sinks / tips over. Just keep mucking around in the muck......the buildings' weight, will TALK BACK TO YOU ...very soon.
656,000,000 million POUNDS, of 560 foot high, C E M E N T. // ....'' sooner, or l a t e r '.....it , will self-destruct = meaning, tip/fall over. Sooner, or later. Amen. Stoopid humans'.....shooting the design, from the hip. o well. Such is modern human ' greed '. San Fran, your done ; when the BIG ONE earthquake, hits. First to go , mr millenium, down into that mud and sand.
Piss poor graphics and editing. Too much too fast. I wonder of they remove the top 10-15 floors if that would reduce the load on the piles to help stabilize.
Most builders discover ways to cut corners and save money during the construction process. Why should we use 6 nails when we can get away with only using 2? Then, years later after the builder has ridden off into the sunset with saddlebags stuffed with cash, those deficiencies begin to manifest themselves in the most predictable ways. Its all about the money. Clearly, this building should be demolished and rebuilt. But safety will take a back seat to the cost of doing that. This is not going to end well but money involved is much more important than the lives that will be lost when this thing comes down.
Anyone that builds a structure that big without going down to bedrock is an idiot, any city that lets them is an idiot, and anyone that buys into is an idiot.
The only solution will be to take the tower down, when they started putting the extra piles in more problems started they reduced the number to 18 I believe. Personally, I believe they will demo the tower piece by piece. lesson to be learned on sandy land or clay Piles go into bedrock period.
Sorry, I stopped when every building except mellinium tower was represented. Some images were from New york. It's not just me. This is a very bizarre production. Younger generations will grow up with this thinking it's OK. Doom!
Oops. Mellinium Tower is not the tallest building in San Francisco. The tallest building is the Salesforce building, which is practically across the street from Mellinium Tower.
I like all the shots of the unfinished, leaning tower in NYC, while talking about SF. Also, it's not the tallest building in SF... not even the tallest in the neighborhood. What a terrible attempt at a video.
An 8 story 648 ft tower ??? 8 stories ??? 648ft ??? so each floor is 81ft high ? damn those are some mighty high ceilings. no wonder the thing is falling over. C'mon guys, I get this was a typo, read by an AI synthesized voice, but not catching such an obvious error is a comment on the video as a whole. The millennium Tower is 58 floors. Also the tallest building in San Franscisco is the Salesforce Tower at over 1000 ft (second is the TransAmerica pyramid at 848 ft. Both dwarf the Millenium tower (and even your nausea enducing editing dewmonstrates clearly that it is not the tallest buiding in SF.) I think I'll quit this video before you make more ludicrous claims. Proof-read your copy before publishing in future.
29 inches is a lot but your thumbnail is misleading. From that distance one would not be able to discern the lean with the naked eyes. Is the leaning a problem? Yes, a major problem.
This video left out a crucial fact. The City, against the advice of its own experts, allowed the tower to be built without attaching it to the bedrock. Usually, it would have to be attached, but the developers wanted to build it as cheaply as possible. It would've been cheaper to do it right the first time. Now, the underpinnings are making the problem worse.

Idiotic "clip art" video inserts. Thumbs down. Have you thought about just doing your job and creating an interesting video without insulting the intelligence of your viewers?
FIRST YOU BUILD IT OUT OF STEEL NOT CONCRETE, BECAUSE IT IS LIGHTER AND STRONGER! SECOND YOU GO ALL THE WAY DOWN TO BED ROCK BECAUSE IF YOU SECURE A BUILDING TO BEDROCK YOU WILL NEVER HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH SINKING OR TILTING! IT IS ALSO REQUIRED BY LAW, HOW ON EATH DID THEY GET A WAY WITH THIS! MAYBE BECAUSE THIS IS CALIFORNIA THESE LAWS ARE ONLY RECOMMENDATIONS! I LIIVE IN WINNIPEG MANITOBA CANADA, 🇨🇦 A 2 MINUTE BIKE RIDE FROM MY HOUSE THERE IS A 6 FLOOR APPARENT UNDER CONSTRUCTION 🏗️ THE DEPTH OF THE FOUNDATION WHICH IS ABOUT 50 FEET IS THE SAME AS 10 FLOOR RETIREMENT LIVING COMPLEX CLOSE BY AND A 30 FLOOR APPARTEMENT BUILDING SOUTH OF THE ASSINIBOINE RIVER! THIS PROVES THAT ONCE THE BUILDING EXCEEDS A CERTIN WEIGHT OR IS TALLER THAN 5 FLOORS, THE BUILDING MUST HAVE A FOUNDATION THAT IS SECURED TO THE BEDROCK!
I am so dead at the AI voice. I kinda wanna sample the hilarious “one-teen” and “men-tee-own” parts. This is a great example of why AI will never fully replace people 😂
The tax payers are going to have to pay for the fixes. How a about paying to take it down before it falls down. And making the developers pay for the demolition of the crap they built.
Piss poor pathetic video. Horrible to watch. Made by talentless amateurs. Did they really say “8 story 648 foot tall skyscraper “? That would mean that each floor is 81 feet tall. Everyone needs to give this rubbish a thumbs down and NOT subscribe. Do not reward horrible work.
