It's true, the tower has now listed so far to the side it's not safe to go into. They actually have it anchored to metal cables to keep it from toppling over completely, but if something drastic isn't done for the foundation it'll probably still fall over eventually.

Also, I read in the paper today that Big Ben is tilted about a foot and a half off vertical and moves a little more each year (but it'll take approximately 10,000 years before it's tilted as far as the leaning tower).

Also the Japanese earthquake in March shifted Honshu, Japan's main island, about six feet to the east and slowed the earth's rotation by about a billionth of a second due to the redistributed mass.
