How long did it take to make the Canadian Museum Of Civilization?
Many many years, in one sense they started in 1856 but work on the current building started in 1986 with serious design and planning , work started at the site in 1987 if memory serves me correct and completed in 1989/90. It had considerable media attention at the time.
It was a good example of the "overhead" or some would say corruption that comes with such projects. The completed building would have cost about $100 million if I or a private company had built it for themselves but the final cost was well over 3X that. Many questions were raised as the building was raised but all the investigations concluded that the extra costs were, to paraphrase the explanations, the costs of doing government business. That is very Canadian, from the construction of the transcontinental railway to all government projects today "extra" costs are considered normal, even Canadian.
And so it the Canadian Museum of History, well worth the visit.

The most richest sri lankan in the world?
Since Sri Lankans are present in many countries, the definition of ''Sri Lankan'' itself is up for debate. If you mean a Sri Lankan in an official sense, its probably Harry Jayawardena. If you mean a person with Sri Lankan roots/origin, it probably is not. Its not as simple as long ago during the times of CH de Soysa or Sir Ernest de Silva when the richest Sri Lankan probably was situated in Sri Lanka.

How do you brake your leg by falling off a 10 foot wall?
Easily, especially if the surface below is concrete or solid granite. Also, the saying, the bigger you are, the harder you fall has a lot of truth. A horse can fall a very short distance, a mouse can fall a hundred feet sometimes without injury. Older people can get broken bones more easily than young ones, because their bones essentially get brittle. A smart person would hang from their hands off a 10' wall before falling, making it a shorter fall, maybe only 4 feet. Or fall onto softer material. Or fall onto downward sloping hill, to allow a rolling impact. Falling straight down without any rolling while hitting solid ground, can be quite dangerous, although the guys on TV make it look easy. They use a number of tricks, including giant airbags, hidden foam padding etc. If one breaks vertebrae or hits their head, even fairly short falls can be deadly or crippling. I had a friend who as a little kid, broke his leg falling off a fence only about 5 or 6 feet tall. It was made of concrete blocks. They didn't cap the top, so the openings in the block were still open. Walking along the top, a leg fell into a hole part way and his body fell over the edge. He had to dangle there, with the middle of his leg bent like a " ^" until someone helped him down. That's another way... I slid off a roof, maybe 9' tall, while standing on a plastic solar collector when I was almost 30. Luckily, I jumped sideways onto a pile of wood shingles below, and was rather shaken up. As it turns out, I should have gone home for the day after that, but that's another story. [the original question was "How do you brake your leg by falling of a 10 foot wall" SIC]
