I've actually been in a sweatlodge (and enjoyed the food afterward) at Oshwegan in Ontario.
It was brutal. It's entirely black, insanely hot and eventually you begin to hallucinate. They brought in a drum and sang traditional songs at the top of their lungs. One of my co-lodgers was sick. I spent at least some of the time doubled over with my head resting on the first floor.
From my perspective as someone who's been in one, the only benefit I derived was to be able to tell you I was someone who's been in one.
Oh, and the corn soup afterward was rediculously good.

The CN Tower in Toronto has been the tallest free standing structure in the world since it was built more than thirty years ago.
The Ostankino Tower was the highest from 1967 until 1975.
