“We’re talking about a missile! The size of the Chrysler building!”

I mean, why on Earth would someone in that situation use the Chrysler building? Of all the buildings of around similar size to use she selects that? The Empire State building is roughly 200 feet taller. Met Life 200 shorter. The Eiffel Tower just 80 feet shorter.

I dunno, it just seemed a laughable line using the Chrysler Building.

They didn't stop it. It now just constantly circles the globe as shown in the documentary "Snowpiercer".
