"Chilling recording captures terrifying sound in Aussie high-rise apartment"

An Australian photographer captured unsettling creaking sounds in a high-rise apartment on the 52nd floor of Melbourne's Victoria One building, causing concern about the building's safety. The video, shared on Reddit, received comments describing the sounds as "terrifying" and "nightmare fuel." While creaking sounds are common in tall structures due to wind-induced movements, experts suggest installing vibration-control technologies like dampers or isolators to mitigate the noise. The design phase of the building may have overlooked these considerations, leading to the noise issues. Victoria One declined to comment on the matter.
