Because context is fun
Rich family were batteling themselves to have the highest tour because after a 2 years old without enough sleep the biggest baby are the richs
Say what now?
Rich families were battling each other to build the tallest tower; turns out even grown adults act like overtired two-year-olds when it comes to having the biggest one.
Why, though?
Dick-measuring contest between rich families. Literally.

Is there meant to be a link to a source, here? I’d really like to read about this. Wikipedia article linked by another comment does not mention any more towers besides the two that continue to exist today.
Holy shit I’ve been in that tower and I didn’t even know. TBF, we showed up in August, and apparently 95% of the town just shuts down for vacation. Still managed to find some mind-blowing tortellini.
Europe holidays in August. This should be converted to common knowledge and spread all around the world
Just imagine how rock hard their collective calves and hamstrings must have been during that time
That’s almost a deci kilometer!
The word you are looking for is a “hectometre”.
That tower would be:
- 0.097 kilometres tall
- 0.97 hectometres tall
- 9.7 decametres tall
- 97 metres tall
- 970 decimetres tall
- 9700 centimetres tall
- 97000 millimetres tall
So, a deca decikilometer?
They don’t even know.
