Tallest Building

The world's tallest structure is the


828 m (2,717 ft) tall Burj
Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
The building gained the official title of

"Tallest Building in the World" at its


opening on 4 January 2010.

It is taller than any other man-made


structure ever built.
Tallest Tree
Hyperion Coast Redwood - 115.56 m (379.1 ft)

On September 8, 2006, this Sequoia or


California Redwood (Sequoia
sempervirens) was discovered in
Humboldt Redwoods State Park, a
remote California forest.

Hyperion is not only the world’s tallest


tree but also the world’s tallest living
thing.

And it might also be one of the world’s


oldest, given that redwoods live for up
to 2,200 years – that’s older than our
modern calculation of time.
Tallest Animal

The giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis) is
an African even-toed ungulate mammal, the
tallest of all extant land-living animal species

It is approximately 4.3 metres (14 ft) to


5.2 metres (17 ft) tall, although the tallest male
Giraffe recorded stood almost 6 metres (20 ft).
