The Petronas towers have finally been taken over! Taipei 101 is now the worlds tallest. Of course I mean the tallest building (not structure)

Ahhhhhhhhhh, finally a WTB that can claim the title without cheating. (I'm talking about Petronas 288 feet spires)

I always thought the towers were a bit of a cheat. I think that taipei 101 has around 101 floors or maybe its 111, ill check.
