Is CN tower the tallest freestanding tower in the world?

The CN Tower was, until recently, the world's tallest free-standing structure. That title now belongs to an office building in Dubai, which is still under construction. There are two television towers that are taller than the CN Tower, one in Russia and one in North Dakota, but they are supported by guy wires, and therefore are not 'free-standing.'

What happens if you drop a frozen pea from the CN tower in Canada?

As it would be difficult to find a place on the tower, including its observation decks, in which open air is within reach, the most likely case is that the pea will softly hit the ground 4-6 feet below its drop point. However, if the pea were somehow projected into the open air, it would not gain enough momentum in its fall to cause any significant damage to whatever breaks its fall. Contrary to modern mythology, it's not possible for a frozen pea dropped from a tall structure to kill somebody, unless possibly by chance that person happened to have their mouth open and pointed upwards and consequently choked on the pea.

However, residents of Toronto do have some cause for caution when it comes to frozen objects falling from the CN Tower. In March 2007, much more massive blocks of thawing ice on the side of the tower fell to the ground, resulting in at least one smashed windshield and a temporary shutdown of the very busy Gardiner Expressway.
