Natatawa pa din ako kapag iniisip ko na ang tawag ng mga Taiwanese dito ay "damper baby." Ang timbang nito ay mahigit sa 600 na tonelada, at ang taas ay 18 feet. Isa itong mabigat at malaking bola na ginintuan ang kulay. Isa itong malaking pendulum at ang misyon ay ang panatilihing balanse at matatag ang Taipei 101, ang pinakamataas na gusali sa bansa ng Taiwan.


I still find it amusing that the Taiwanese call this a damper baby. It is no baby at all. It weighs more than 600 tons and stands about 18 feet. It is a heavy and huge golden ball. It acts as pendulum to stabilize Taipei 101, Taiwan's highest building structure.

Je le trouve toujours amuser que l'appel taiwanais ceci un bébé plus humide. Ce n'est aucun bébé du tout. Il pèse plus de 600 tonnes et tient environ 18 pieds. C'est une boule d'or lourde et énorme. Il agit en tant que pendule pour stabiliser Taïpeh 101, la fondation la plus élevée de Taiwan.
