What would you say are the Seven Wonders of the modern world?
I think we can all agree on pic related.
>>3090159
I disagree on the louvre but I'm curious about that bridge
>>3090159

>Lady Liberty
Motherland Calls has a FUCKING SWORD bigger than entire Lady Liberty and most of you fucks don't even know it exist
Hell the Genghis on horse in Ulaanbaatar is cooler than Lady Liberty.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New7Wonders_of_the_World
not exactly what you have in mind, but there is a revised list out there
Gaza Pyramids
Great Wall of China
Ruins of Petra
the Roman Colosseum
Chichen Itza
Pachu Picchu
the Taj Mahal
Christ the Redeemer
what's so great about the glass pyramid
>>3090176
those both look like shit, and the lady is in constant danger of falling apart because it's all heavy shitcrete
>>3090176
>nd most of you fucks don't even know it exist
Exactly. The Statue of Liberty is far more iconic (not to mention a century older).

>the Louvre isn't a world wonder
Nigger aside from the fact that it's the largest palace in the world, it houses the greatest collection ever assembled by humans of artistic masterpieces and other artifacts from every civilisation in the world and over thousands of years of history. Nothing remotely like this ever existed before.

The tunnel under the English channel. Get some education.
>>3090315
I am well aware of the chunnel. I've never seen an aerial photo of it though.
>>3090159
I'd put the ISS up there desu.
>>3090343
Why does it have to be? Cant it just be the seven wonders of man
100% agree
I'd argue the Panama canal over the Suez. Also maybe lose the Eiffel Tower for The Three Gorges Dam or Christ the Redeemer. I'm trying to stick to fairly modern too. If you want to go back further you're gonna have to include The Colleseum and the Taj Mahal.
>>3090159
What about the Burj Khalifa?
>>3090169
Here you go my man
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millau_Viaduct
>>3091083
That's nothing new, it just happens to be the tallest building at the moment, but won't be for long.
>>3090185
Petra shouldn't be there. It was completed in ancient times. This really gets me.
>>3090159
I see what you did there, my man and I fully approve
[spoiler]Vive la France[/spoiler]

Bonjour Monsieur Crapaud
>>3092099
All of those are ancient except the shitty Jesus statue.
>>3090159
I agree
>>3090159
1. International Space Station
2. Panama Canal
3. Three Gorges Dam
4. Christ the Redeemer
5. Louvre
6. Palm Island
7. Cerns LHC
There we go, seven wonders of the modern world
What exactly is wondrous about the christ statue
>>3092099
nigga none of those are modern except for Christ the Redeemer
>>3094070
hella big
>>3094070
It is pretty beautiful, and I'm not Christian so don't accuse me of bias.
>>3090159
Include Atlanta.
>>3090185
I feel like the Pantheon is more worthy than the Colosseum.
>>3090159
The internet.
>>3094070
the single statue basically redeemed a whole nation of loud uncouth brash macaque eaters in the eye of g*d
>>3094077
Only Petra is BC.
Agreed desu
>>3090159
1. iPhone
2. Fleshlight
3. Fibre internet
4. Reddit
5. Segway
6. Electric car
7. Prosthetic penis implants
>>3092091
Literally the same line of thinking of the eurangutan louvre.
>>3097910
The fuck is this sentence trying to convey
>>3090185
Petra shouldn't be there because there are hundreds of temples in India built in the exact same way, carved from large monoliths, except grander and sometimes older.
>>3094243
I worry this is a slippery slope to including abstract concepts over actual physical structures, which goes against the spirit of the list. Just put the LHC on there, the Internet is a CERN spinoff anyway.
>>3090159
Panama canal.
Burj Khalifa
International space station
Three gorges dam
LHC
Eurotunnel
Internet
>>3090185
Its revised to such an extent it includes 8 entries despite being called "The seven wonders"
>>3090172
Tacky as fuck. Accelerationist jerk-off material tier
>>3099493
I'm pretty sure it's already sunk.
>>3090185
This is what happens when you let plebs brainwashed by travel agencies decide
>>3090214
They still should give those masterpieces back. Napoleon raped the Benelux and othe territories when they invaded it by stealing art and selling building materials of demolished churches and never gave them back.
>>3099965
Do you even have an example of that?
>>3099533
Dubai is in serious economic shit and the companies making the islands stopped the construction on a lot of those islands.

Replace the Canal of Suez by the Canal du Midi and we are good.
