Obviously the answer to this question will change based on whether you stack the pennies flat or tall. A penny laying flat is 1.5 mm. A penny standing on its edge is 19.05 mm tall. It would take 216,000 flat pennies or 17,008 pennies stacked on their edges to be the same height as the Eiffel Tower, which is 324,000mm (324m) tall.
It takes about 2 and a half minutes. And despite what you may have heard, the velocity is not enough to kill someone, the air resistance is too great. They could get stung pretty good, and might break cause a pretty good bruise, but isn't likely to result in severe injury..............No someone has actually died from someone throwing a penny of the empire building, yeah the air resistance is great but it has more weight in a penny ,just like if rain was a little more heavier it would kill someone or damage something every time it rains but the air resistance slows it down.
The Empire State Building height, including the pinnacle, is 1453' & 8-9/16"= 17,444 & 9/16". The thickness of a nickel is .077". Therefore, if you divide 17,444 & 8-9/16" by .077" you get the number of nickels needed then to reach top: 226,552.7597 around $11, 400.00.
It takes 2 billion pennies to reach the top of the Empire State Building.

The Empire State Building is 1250 ft (381 meters) tall.You can convert the height into inches, centimeters, e.g.
The London "cucumber building" is about half the height of the Empire State Building. It has 40 stories and a height of about 180 meters, compared to 102 floors and 373 meters for the occupied portion of the New York City skyscaper (the second tallest in the US).
Yes it is, over twice as tall: Empire State Building is 1,250' in height. Seattle Space Needle is 605' in height.
The height of the building at the 102nd floor is 381 metres. The penny is irrelevant.

The taller of the two World Trade Center Towers was 1368 ft in height, the other was 1362 ft. The Empire State Building is 999 ft in height, but the mast on top is an additional 203 feet making the entire structure 1223 ft in height. Witch makes the empire state building not taller then the twin towers.
