The Walkie Talkie Building (20 Fenchurch Street) in London is known to be dangerous because its curved glass design once reflected and concentrated sunlight onto the street below, strong enough to melt car parts, scorch bicycles, and even fry eggs on the pavement. 🔥 This earned it the nickname “Walkie Scorchie.” #documentary #documentaryfilm #storytelling #jayveescars | Denis Karori
