Facts on the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
The leaning Tower of Pisa has many myths including that it is going to fall in 2016. It is also a rumor that they were planning on taking it down in the late 1900's. Today, we know that was not true. Another myth is that the leaning Tower of Pisa was designed and meant to lean although that is not true.
How bad is the Leaning Tower of Pisa's lean?
Pretty bad. The historians and engineers have been working on the Tower for years to correct the lean. For a long time people couldn't go to the top of the tower, but today they are allowing people to walk up. Somehow they have corrected the foundation with several things and so far it seems to be working.
Why is the leaning tower a tall structure that is not stable?
In 1173 the constrution workers were building a bell tower but it was originally supposed to be standing up staight but it kept tilting. Over centuries other people were helping stablize the tower and others made it worse and because the tower kept tilting they closed the tower 1990. Then they reopened the tower 2001 and they say it is expected to stay like that for the next 300 years.It will eventually fall in the next 200 years. But it is currently being supported by protecters, (it leans 1mm a year)the leaning tower of Pisa will fall eventually but not yet you see it leans 1mm a year.It doesn't lean over long enough to have to do that. The centre of gravity of the tower is still vertically above the foot print (the supporting surface) of the tower.Because it hasn't leaned far enough to become terminally unstable. Also because of twentieth century engineering work to underpin it, which has active response by hydraulic rams to counter any new movements that occur.Pisa's Leaning Tower can lean as far as its area of support but will topple if it's windy enough or if enough resonance occurs.

If you dropped a stone off the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa how far from the base would it land?
The height of the tower is 55.86 m (183.27 ft) from the ground on the lowest side and 56.70 m (186.02 ft) on the highest side. The width of the walls at the base is 4.09 m (13.42 ft) and at the top 2.48 m (8.14 ft). The tower leans at an angle of 3.97 degrees. This means that the stone would land 3.9 meter (12 ft 10 in) from the base.
Why hasn't the Leaning Tower of Pisa fell?
because of its wight. it is 1 kg. so if a human goes in it will break. who ever wrote this is wrong a tower doesn't weigh 1 kilogram. it weighs a few tons at least the tower hasn't fallen yet because it has sunk so far into the ground it cant fall unless they dig it out. the reason it wont fall because its in the ground is that if it trys to fall 1 way the dirt will block it from falling and it is the same for all directions of it falling
