The leaning tower of Pisa is a good example of what happens when the foundations of a building can’t support the construction above. The tower itself is about 56 metres tall, the foundations are tilting at 3.9 degrees, which displaces the top of the building from vertical by 4 metres. Such a small change in the foundations has a significant affect on the whole of the building.

Putting a wallet under the one side of the pelvis caused the spine to deviate by 20 degrees – 5 times the tilt that the leaning tower of Pisa is struggling with, the tower is displaced by 4 metres so imagine the stresses that your spine is under to compensate for a 20 degree tilt.
