5^4^3^2^1= 5.9 e16
10^9^8^7^6^5^4^3^2^1 = 10 e363879
Well what you are saying is not really the exponential factorial.
What you wrote above is the same as \( x^{(x-1)!} \)
The value of \( 5^{4^{3^{2^1}}} \) is acutaly more like 6.206e+183230

(n/alpha)^(n/alpha)^(n/alpha)^(n/alpha)...repeated n times
I would have to look into this more to see how close to \( x^{(x-1)!} \) it is
