How Do Tall Buildings Not Fall Down?

In today's episode, we explore how skyscrapers and other tall buildings stay standing without tipping over, even when strong winds blow or storms roll through. We learn how deep foundations spread out weight, how steel and reinforced concrete act like a building's skeleton, and why many tall buildings are actually designed to sway a little to stay safe.
