Legos - 2.17 Miles High

I still maintain that Legos are some of the best toys ever built.

It came to light today that if there was some way to stack 2x2 bricks on top of each other the tower could extend 2.17 miles high. I say if it were possible because you'd have wind blowing it over after a few feet, and if there were any slight flaw in even one brick it could bring it down early.

Legos!!!!

The 2.17 mile limitation: the bottom brick would collapse under the weight of the 375,000 bricks above it.
