I was confused until I realized that this isn't the conventional "Tallest buildings" quiz. Clever.

Some of these were dwarfed by radio masts, so you should be more specific about what you mean by structure. Maybe free-standing structure.

The Warsaw radio tower was for a long time the tallest manmade structure on earth. You need to rename this quiz or define "structure."

To echo above, add "Freestanding" as before Burj Khalifa, the tallest structure was in North Dakota outside Fargo after the Warsaw radio mast collapsed (but both had guy wires). Also, to keep the quiz consistent either change New York to "New York, NY, United States" or change Washington to "Washington, United States" so they match.
