WHEN it comes to skyscrapers, the poor old UK isn’t having much luck lately.

First, there was the story of the $345 million “Walkie Talkie” tower at 20 Fenchurch Street in London that was burning cars and producing furious wind gusts that have knocked people to the ground.

Now, there’s another skyscraper that’s in the headlines for all of the wrong reasons. The Beetham Tower in Manchester has been totally freaking people due to the strange noises it’s been producing.

While it’s been known to terrorise the locals for some time, a new video has been uploaded to YouTube showing the extent of the problem.

Filmed during a stormy day, it sounds like you’re listening to a horror movie, with noises ranging from humming to shrieking.


Architect Ian Simpson spoke about the issue back in 2012, which is caused by wind passing over a blade at the top of the tower, but nothing has been done about it.

“I am completely aware of the noise because I live at the top of the building,” Mr Simpson said.

“At the end of the day it’s not supposed to make noise. We have got to address that because it’s causing distress.”
