_slavo_ I too love tall buildings!
I was 7 years old in 1980 and my family visited New York City and I remember standing atop the world trade center tower (the one with a viewing platform. the other tower had antennas) I remember looking over the railing fearing my glasses would fall off. I made a paper airplane from the pamphlet available in the lbby and I threw it off the top of the WTC. It was cool. I lost track of it about halfway down.
