World's Most Expensive Tennis Racket

The story starts in 2007 at the Diamond Games tournament in Antwerp, Belgium where Amelie Mauresmo defeated Kim Clijsters 6-4, 7-6 (7-4).
This in itself was not so remarkable, but what was remarkable was the fact that Amelie Mauresmo had won the tournament three times in the last five years and this feat led to her possessing the world's most expensive tennis racket.
The golden racket weighs in at 8.8 pounds and is studded with 1,702 diamonds, giving it a record setting value of $1,300,000.00 USD.

most expensive building ever madehttp://thelongestlistofthelongeststuffatthelongestdomainnameatlonglast.com/expensive72.html

With the rate of inflation and and the urge to build bigger and better buildings this record may not last long.
The most expensive building ever built that we could find is the Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong designed by architect Ieoh Ming Pei.
The Bank of China Tower, built in 1989, is 72 stories, measuring 369 meters or 1,209 feet and cost $1 billion USD to build.
The Freedom Tower at the World Trade Center is expected to be completed in 2009 at a cost of $1.5 - 2 billion USD.
One thing we have been wondering: Why is it called a building if it's already built?

The world's most expensive autograph is that of William Shakespeare.

There are only six known authenticated copies of his autograph, one on a conveyance for a house in London, one on a deposition in a legal case, one on his mortgage papers, and three in his will, all are held in institutions.

Most Expensive Movie Ever Made

With a budget of $258 million, Spider-Man 3 (2007) cost more to produce than any movie before or after its release. With its amazing special effects, top dollar stars and devoted fan base, it’s little wonder that the movie merited such a high budget. Yet this expensive film is only the third most expensive movie when you take inflation into account.
