Offtopic, but

> the tallest building in Tokyo is only 255 meters

There is a hotel in this tower (called Andaz) and it has a proper swimming pool on the 37th floor. Quite an jaw-dropping experience on its own, but doubly so during an earthquake.

You barely feel it during an earthquake, because the building has multiple stabilising mechanisms.

Ah, yes, It’s super freaky. I worked from a hotel room at the Yokohama Landmark Tower for a month, and I had some freak outs. Your balance feels off, even if you don’t feel the shakes.
