The ACTUAL Tallest Build in Tears of the Kingdom (Ft. a really long stick)

I made the grave mistake of watching 7:21 at 2x speed

You should now put this on the highest sky island and see how tall it gets.

For most of this video I was unsure why he didn’t just use the ruined houses in lurelin village, the old structures before you repair the village are designed to hold logs perfectly vertical

The first time I saw a gleeok, I entertained the notion of making a long stick to poke it to death with from a safe distance; preferably by adding a pointy bit at the end like a spike ball or something else that won't break. I'm mostly curious if it'll still attempt to aggro Link and destroy the stick even he's far away or it'll simply allow itself to be poked if he's outside of its detection.

You could always grab it with Ultrahand, rotate it around a couple times, then use recall while holding onto it to travel around in a massive circle.

I think the measurement was off because the long stick has some flex in it, meaning that distance was going into the curving of the entire structure rather than the total height

From what I noticed, it might be closer to 336 meters tall because the tower was not perfectly straight. I recommend going to hebra mountain, find out the elevation at a lower level, summon the stick, then hold it in the air and recall it. After that, you should be free to glide down and find out how tall it really is.

I am immensely disappointed that you didn't try to launch that stick from the tower to see how high it would go.

You should see if you could use it as a bridge from soka point (almost luren village) to eventide island! It would be cool to see that happen.

This is just, perfection, there’s no way we can improve this, this is peak human performance

I am going to continue making silly videos (like this one) for the next few weeks while I collect trivia for a Fact Video. Let me know if you have any ideas for videos!

Pointcrow’s log, Fredwick (the first longest log in history) has passed away before this month, and ever since after his death, already 10000 logs have broke the record of being the tallest log ever, and this log is now the tallest log in history, but Fredwick will be in our hearts for eternity. Fly high, king 🕊️

In theory you could accomplish this anywhere you wanted by using a pair of hoverstones instead of a tunnel. The stick is only contacting the tunnel at one point anyway, so you could use two hoverstones to form a corner to rest it against near the middle of the stick (or even the top) and get the same effect. It would be hell to set up though - you'd have to set up the stick first and then get up near the middle/top to stabilize it, which would probably mean you have to repeatedly use recall to hold it in place, fire a hoverstone upwards, ascend to it, cancel and reactivate the recall, and repeat. If you did this on the floating island above lookout landing you should be able to climb all the way to the height limit though.

The video the world needed

Replace the bottom log with a stake and mount it at the top of that highest skyview tower. That would make the tower plus the big stick into the tallest structure possible. Alternatively, plant the stake bottom to the highest point of Death Mountain. That would make it the tallest non-floating point in the game.

Link took the phrase “Speak softly and carry a big stick” to the next level.

I was waiting for the moment where you would press 'Examine' and launch the whole thing into space! 😂😂

the amount of creative thinking and effort you put into this silly idea is impressive, well done bread! 🍞

If it has not been mentioned before, if you can have a maximum of 21 items together and 2 that are separated from the main one. If you wanted the true tallest thing, you could place 2 attached logs in the skytower and then place the 21 logs on top without attaching. This way it is true maximum :)

The depths one is interesting. I think this indicates that there is in fact a floor until you get into the depths at which point it moves you into the lower section and eliminates the floor
