Ponte City Apartments in South Africa

This picture of the Pontes City Apartments in Johannesburg, South Africa, could be one of the scariest on this list. The apartment building is the tallest residential building in Africa. The courtyard, which is enclosed by walls that reach the sky, makes it feel like you're in a little space. This tower block is an impressive 73 meters (567.6 ft) tall. The floors spiral down into darkness, making it look like a vast tube that never ends.

Even though Ponte City Apartments represent only a small percentage of the more than 8 billion people on Earth, they offer a visible reminder of how big the world is.
