Who Built a Secret Mountaintop Mansion on Top of This Skyscraper? 

Yes, that’s exactly how he did that! He carried rocks in his pockets 🤦‍♀️

It actually no bad idea though as long as you don't endanger the structure or building safety, it looks like sky garden Mesopotamia and it makes the building looks more green and nice to look. Perhaps they should planed it from the start, calculated everything, not adding it after the building built so it wouldn't damaged other people properties.

Let the man have his nest.

All buildings should have a mountain on top! It's awesome! I'm an architect and I approve this message xD

If it were more structurally sound and wouldn't collapse the rest of the building, it would be more architecturally important. But still it is interesting. It's amazing they tried this and got so much up there, all to be torn down though.

So much bullshit. "We don't notice a mountain on a skyscraper, no one noticed for so long". How could you miss that facade being quite visible from the ground level, in addition to being able to look out your window in one of the higher floors, or down the street? Seriously, it is like they expect their viewers to be mentally handicapped.

"Secret" Mountaintop, literally everyone notices.

That actually looks pretty amazing, especially if that was a public garden, if he had planning permission and made it for public use it would actually be a nice concept for a design, especially in a dense area like Beijing. The mountain side is kinda like a retreat for people either in the area or for the resident on the tower block. It could maybe be implied into other designs. Having a mountain terrace feature is certainly better than just a flat roof. The issue was because the owner wanted it all to himself without even a planning permission. If he did it properly and have a decent proposal it would of have been a nice concept and avoided some errors like cracks and the heavy load coming from the roof

So no one in the neighbouring buildings noticed... seems legit

The narrator sounds like he should be working for "America's Most Wanted".

No one Noticed the mountain mansion for 6 years. Yeah bullshit 😂, you can CLEARLY see it from ground level at 1:10 in the video

This should be encouraged and supported by the government (improve the structure of buildings) and get nature on the top especially on overpopulated countries

Why is the music so intense lol

Y'all hate the beautiful mountain retreat? Come on now that's some beautiful goodness

“I want to know how he did it” he’s rich AF

"Destroying is easier than building" says who?

Soooo... Watched the video. They did not answer the WHO portion of the title question.

thats was anticlimactic

This guy needs employment in making sky gardens. He is brilliant

Seriously? I don't know which one is worse the person who went out the way to build this elaborate thing on the rooftop or the fact that nobody noticed it.

I am from Beijing and I miss this funny mansion

how the hell this was built without anyone noticing over the course of 6 years O_o?

That's some Phineas and Ferb action right there. I'd like to see inside of the mansion

What a genius!Dangerous for the other tenants but still.And seriously, no one saw it?From the other buildings???

Imagine falling down a mountain, and then falling off an apartment block 🤣

Why do you need to put scary sound effects to this video

I know it’s not good for the building but god bless the man for taking the time in doing this for himself ! Just wow

Good to have so many qualified subject matter experts with speaking parts

Dude builds all that without the owners permission nor knowledge is beyond me.

Takes 6 years to build boom has to be taken down. I feel bad for the guy but you shouldn't make something like that on a Skyscraper where other people live too

This is both Brilliant and Crazy at The same Time lol. 🤔🤓😤😲😭😨

...and people wonder why we have building safety codes...

All that extra weight on the roof that the original structural engineers didn't account for, it's a miracle the building didn't collapse.

might be shoddy work, but a great project otherwise

its a great idea. keep it green even over a city's hustle and bustle.

I think it's cool, and I'm guessing those rocks are artificial.

It actually looked cool, and they just want to make it look dull again, lame!

Rumor says they are still dismantling. Feb 2018.

Is 'Science Channel' really a science channel? Maybe I missed it, but I heard no estimations on the potential load bearing capabilities of the building, nor from engineers with a professional opinion.

How is that possible ??? Nobody knew what happened up there ??? I can’t believe it !!!

How the fuck did no one notice it

This is like that one episode of sponge bob where they built the krusty krab on top of a building and then it all collapsed down

something tells me that "no one knew" is a bit exaggerated

This is more like Ancient Astronaut theorist say - Yes!

Lmaoo homie watched gargoyles and said "hold my beer"

Nice Bit Of Mind Control At The Start Of This Video Cute!

Clearly, someone is living their dream. I wish l could. Amazing. These are the videos l enjoy watching on youtube.

I am absolutely amazed that the building didn't collapse. Buildings like this are not meant to support millions of pounds of rock and earth on the roof. Its a miracle people weren't killed.

Now that's what I call taking real estate to new heights! *ba-dum crash

How tf was he supposed to remove that in 2 weeks come on na😭😭

That’s pretty incredible. They should leave it there. It’s like a piece of artwork on top of the building.

it is better than most of the tourist attraction I ve ever been.. it should be preserved for tourist and visiters.....

I feel so honored to be the first comment. All of my hard work and dedication has paid off. Getting the top comment has been a dream of mine for many years, and I would like to thank those who have helped me along the way. Next I would like to thank my parents, for giving birth to me. I want to thank my cat Delete, for always being there for me . I want to thank my family, my friends, my uncle, my aunt, my grandmother, my grandfather, my friend, my neighbors, my gossips, my colleagues, my girls, my babies, my parrot, my dog, my cat, my squirrel, my fish, my refrigerator, my TV, my computer, my facebook, my twitter my youtube channel. I also want to thank President Bush for allowing me to realize that if a mentally challenged child can be president, I can be first comment... This is a special moment in my life and I would like to thank any of my unmentioned friends and family that have helped me along the way. This moment will be an experience that I will never forget. And last but not lease I would like to thank all of the millions of people/fans out there that took time out of their day to celebrate this momentous achievement with me. I cannot stress how much of a big deal this is. I have been trying to be the first comment on a post for like a month. But that has not been possible until this amazing day. Hopefully my good luck will continue. But this is how I did this I would say, you can achieve anything you set your mind to. To all the kids out there reading this, I would like to tell them that the sky has no limit. Being first comment is amazing, thank you everyone!

why do these videos always start with pictures from satellites

This guy should be commissioned to create these wonderful paradises

Why did people remove this!? things like this with a lot of plants should be good for the environment.

The weight may cause the building to collapse .

I want something like this but purpose designed from the beginning so the sky scraper is built to handle the load.

It is actually a great use of the top floor of that building, just make it smaller and safer then open to the residents

They should have just checked it was safe and then left it because it is beautiful. A natural wonder. It could have helped tourism in that area. I am sure people would have been curious to explore.

That Niki chick is fiiiiiiinnnneeee.

I say they should keep the mountain mansion up there as a tourist attraction.

This would make City life more fun. Love it.

What a beautiful green building top! If only he had not put so many giant boulders up there, which drew all the attention.

Paul FRENCH?!

😂 only in china. but that was amazing

1:10 From there you can see it from the ground so how can no one have noticed it being built? Also, that whole building might have structural damage now since it wasn't designed to hold all that extra weight.

What a great idea for topping off a building. If everyone did it that would really help cities stay cooler and cleaner during the Summer. Roof tops could become public spaces for the live-in tenants of that building: a playground for the kids; a place to have a picnic; a place to sun and swim; the possibilities are endless. The owner of that building should have sold his idea to the city before executing his idea:(

He could've just use lightweight artificial rocks and shrubbery just to give a mountainous effect. But instead he used a real mountain lol 😂

"Sum ting wong!" - yea i said it..

For a country known for snitching even on their own family, this seems very odd that the structure went unnoticed for so long

Penthouse mountain owner: You aren’t allowed up here Local drone operator: I’m about to end this man’s whole career

Niki can get it.

Its lex Luthor's building luxury apartment

That's toooooo sick. Pure genius

It's so heart wrenching

How much money does the owner has? Damn, whoever it is, I'm willing to be their stepchild :))

Thats a step backwards, having mountaintop villas like that should be a trend all over the world, it would make cities cleaner, more relaxing, probably even safer.

Something fishy here....How would no one notice him building this huge structure, with those huge boulders and metal beams ?

that would have been a pretty cool addition to the skyscraper, if anyone actually minded the weight and safety of it

You got to like this media, no updates, no responses. No completion. Just a bite out of the sandwich.

Oh okay, so the title question was actually you asking us who built it? Because you don’t seem to know, or aren’t interested in sharing that part of the documentary.. cool thanks, I’ll get back to you on that.

I think they should have made the building into an artificial resort. This man should be given a medal, or at least internet fame.

Without those heavy object added of the top floor, if it was only a simple garden it could be nice for putting back the nature on top that's been taken by the building below

Mountain or not - Niki is pretty hot.

i just don't get it...if he had the money to build it, then why not just build it somewhere else?? like on the fucking ground? or even a hill? Why the top of a building? how tf did it go unnoticed? that's BS. so many questions

I want it to remain. If only the stones were fake and light. It would be an added amenity feature

I would be scared to jump in that pool.

WHO: Professor Zhang Lin

How this goes unnoticed during 6 yrs of construction is beyond truth. Should have stopped long time ago.

one tear on and they are struggling to take it down with all those workers and he did this by himself? lol Hire that guy to work for our company

I still don't know how he could build this without nobody noticing ! 🤔🤔

Chinese construction standards are notoriously shoddy; this is a catastrophe waiting to happen.

The Builder is my hero I can't believe he built it and got away with it for so long the city should have just left him keep it there and they should have complimented him and how good it looked and they should just made all the other building owners build nice things like on top of their ugly building roofs too

What is wrong with creating a garden on a rooftop? Today, you see them everywhere

Just proves that those satellites are secretly really made to watch us.

only in China...

They don’t have helicopters in China???

I'm more intrigued how they got permission to use satellites to find it.

FORGET THE BUILDING THE GIRL 1:58 IS SO STUNNING
