    The accuracy needed to dig blind under the earth from 2 different directions and meeting in the middle with a requirement that both tunnels must not be off by just a few millimeters is incredible.

      @StefanVeenstra Před rokem +4

      Indeed, always thought the Afsluitdijk was a feat, but at least they had surface level observation and a larger margin for error.
      Tunnels are even more impressive, besides GPS assist, there's also the height margins to consider. Don't want to drill through the sea floor and accidentally cause a flood.

    After the phone company building was turned 90° in 1930, in 1987 in Romania a 7600 tons apartment building with all the people still inside was moved 55 meters (180ft) away to make space for a boulevard.
    Using a similar system of rails and hydraulics. Amazing!

    I’ve installed over 17 miles of fiber optic cables and maintained them as other contractors yank them out accidentally or cut them during the installation of THEIR project. You have to go to a four month course to learn to repair the fibers individually so that there is >0.004% data transmission loss. Each repair takes forty minutes and requires perfect precision and steady hands. Then when you’re done if the data lost is too great…back you go (and you don’t get paid for the second repair)

    One little error in the video was where you mentioned the sun being 142,000,000 miles away. That SHOULD have been KM, not miles as on average it really is only 93,000,000 miles away. Otherwise, another incredible video. And Iove the little animations of the guy either being being amazed, scared, or skeptical of what's being shown. Keep up the good work. 😁

      The construction sites you are referring to near Magdeburg are Schiffshebewerk Rothensee, a construction similar to Pont de la Chapelle Bertrand in Belgium and de Kanalbrucke Magdeburg over the Elbe, comparable to the construction in Belgium, but different in outlook. There are quite a number of aquaducts (roads and railroads underneath the canals) in the Netherlands. In the province of Friesland alone there are 6 of them.

    Not sure if its music or something else but there's a constant "chirping" sound in the background through the whole video. I tried pausing several times to see if was something in the room around me. Its definitely in the video. Good content but that sound was really distracting. Thumbs up anyway !

    WOW On The Tunnel! Other Vids On Tunnels across the USA But Still Amazing Overall!!! Equally WOW Is the Moving Building That Huge! The Solar Tower looks like the One In the movie "Sahara". The bridge making is Mezmerizing as well!

    The sun is not 142,000,000 Mi or 228,000,000 KM away. It is 142,600,000 KM or 92,950,000 Mi. Got your units backwards.

      ​@@melonplaygroundexperiments8081 93 M vs. 143 M is not a round off error.

      And it's the tilt of the Earth that determines our seasons, not its distance from the sun.
