No audio?
I really enjoy your videos, pls can you make a video on digital potentiometer.
Doing these reuploads is actually worse for your analytics and trying to build a following. It annoys current followers, looks like a cash grab (instead of earnest science communication), and resets your stats for each video, making it less likely to be recommended by the algorithm. Your best bet is experimenting with titles and thumbnails the first 24 hours or so after posting.
Good animation
the video is solid, but the random loud music outbursts are terrible, distracting and a pretty big turn off.
A bit of trivia: 96 men died in the construction of this damn. The last man to die was the son of the first man to die. Great video, thanks!
Good pun in the first sentence
It was more than that, it's been Said that the company wanted the number to be less than 100 for the public eye. The real number was more like 110-120
@@PandaTaco that sound about right. Good to know.
It's huge loss of life...
May Allah rest them peace and increase the longevity of the dam...
The hard hat was an invention by a rock scaler at the site. He turned 2 baseball caps back to front and dipped them in tar several times till they hardened.
I had never imagined Superman with Mjolnir, and here we are
Yeah everything was right but SUPER MAN with HAMMER 😅😂🤣
Superman couldn't use Mjolnir. He went on his drunkard & evil spree when he thought Lois was killed. 🤷🏻♂️😆
Thank you. All the folks that created and produced this video of Hoover Dam should feel good that they provided a public good for all. A wonderful presentation.
And 88 years later the dam is still working to perfection and hopefully will continue to serve America for years to come. Great video.
except it's not. there hasn't been a lot of water or power production for quite some time.
That is true. Power output has decreased significantly, and the cost to maintain is being questioned.
It would be working for the next 262 years when it would become a strategic location for the New California Republic
@@duroisgawdpower production is a side note, that wasn’t its main goal. Its main goal was water control.
@@duroisgawdit has never not produced power.

Wow. This video is art. Thank you, Lesics.
Idk about art but it Def is something
Please normalize audio levels, commentary is too quiet compared to the sound effects
whoever edited this video did an awesome job and needs to be paid more
Special thanks for creating such useful video for us, watching from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
🤚
I have been there many times and it is something to see in person you can't really appreciate it until you have been there amazing feat of engineering.
that song is so out of the blue. It took me off guard
One of the great Engineering channel. I have weatched that construction before but didn’t' know about the gap.Tnx a lot....
These animations are super useful to understand the subjects deeply thanks to your hole team
Best dam(n) video I have seen in a while.
Very helpful , presents a lot of knowledge in very effective way. Being a structural engineer I always enjoy such videos.
It's really amazing information.
Thanks for your informative animation 😊😊😊😊
A very informative video. Thank you very much.
🙌 for great visuals
Great job Lesics
Impressive video. This is better than school. No teacher is this smart.
I learned a lot from this dam video
Very interesting, and to understand how water generates electricity, great engineering, technology and hard work of all the workers involved in this project construction From Washington DC
Your graphics are top notch....thanks
Great video very informative and great content brilliant narrating also.
I like the video and the animations. 👍👍👍
Brilliant thanks for this
Thanks ❤
Amazing lesics raise funding for this youtube channel
So elegant.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but...
I don't think a beaver could have built this.
can u prove he didnt?
Interesting, I never thought about the design of the dam.
Very good presentation. It is quite a large structure that I hope to visit some day.
Keep up the good work, even though you guys are running under profit wise you guys are producing world class content. Thanks Lesics.
Awesome video. Thanks 🙌😊👍👌🍀🙏
Amazing ❤❤
aw shit is that superman with a thor hammer 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
aw shit is that superman with a Thor💯💯💯 vs (?????Hammer???🔥🔥🔥 13:02
Thanks!
Excellent!
The fact this was built in the 1930s is amazing.
Many years ago I took a tour of the inside of the Hoover Dam. Very impressive & beautiful structure. Sad that the water levels are so low.
Over watering in a desert landscape (Phoenix Metro area)
@@charlesball6519 That doesn’t help, but from what I’ve read, the majority of the water from the Colorado River is allocated to & used in California.
Increíble construcción y logro de ingeniería 😯
Haha😂 who animated the Superman? They didn’t even try
Thank you.
🔥🔥🔥
Dam good video!
My dad worked on the dam. In order to be hired he lied an said he was a welder. He ended up being an office worker. Used to have a photo of him standing in a huge concrete pipe probably 20 feet in diameter. Maybe part of the diversion tunnels. Also a photo of him at the bottom of the spillway. Very scary to see the enormity of it all.
And to think that was done in the early 30s with what now would be primitive equipment and slide rules instead of computers. How did those engineers figure all that stuff out? Mind blowing!
This was a dam good video.
In 1930 as well. Amazing.
Brilliant
Work on background music
the water molecules are so cute >.
Never thought Superman will lift mjolnir 😂😅
Hai sir.....superb explanation 👌
Please make a video on india's biggest masonry dam "NAGARJUNA SAGAR DAM"
It has superb constructional facts.
I will help you on this sir
17:00 bro jumpscare
Our visit to the dam was awe inspiring. Its sheer size is amazing, and the guided tour inside the dam is one we will never forget. An engineering masterpiece that is unmatched. However, with the dwindling water level in Lake Mead, the dam's usefulness for generating electricity has been seriously hampered. Hopefully, weather conditions will reverse this downward spiral of Lake Mead's capacity to store water. Excellent video.
genius
Awesome
Looked like a lot of work to build it.
Actually, it's an alternator, not a generator.
5:48 The Story of The Hoover Dam is by far the most comprehensive documentary on the actual construction of the dam. Herbert Hoover, himself an engineer was in a perfect position to work with the Bureau of Reclamation and oversee everything from the bidding to the building. The structure is known as a gravity arch dam which uses the simple physical properties of weight and the distributive properties of an arch. The entire structure is a huge plug in the canyon walls sitting on a huge foundation.
So, magic music inserted
That's how you build a DAMN! DAM!
Megatron is the reason the secret space in the hoover damn. I thought everyone would know.
How do they synchronize the generators to be in phase and and at the correct frequency? That is the more interesting question.
Shaft brake, I imagine, applying just a small amount of pressure to slow it slightly down until it is in phase and then lock it in to the grid and release the brake. Also water gate adjustment works
Which signal do you guys trade
it's about the fake traders that you meet you haven't heard about Olivia Palermo yet
She's mostly on Telegrams, using the user name.
@Olivpal77💯.. that's it
“ Tunnel boring machines unpopular at the time”?? They simply did not exist for hard rock tunnels. First introduced in the 1950’s. Also the jumbos did not drill sideways as the illustration shows.
its ai generated
@@ganondalf8090 no, it's manually generated using 3D CAD software.

You should probably go out to Boulder City and watch the actual videos of production. Your artist rendering is cute but not accurate. The actual videos are free to view in Boulder City. They charge to watch it at the dam.
at 7:04. The dam construction part reminds me of the show, Big Bigger Biggest
If you're fortunate enough to visit the Hoover Dam, you must take the "Dam Tour" its worthy of your time and money!
Yes, solar plants can produce the same amount of power, when they are massive... and in the desert.
Solar farms are able to generate the same power as the Hover dam. Just not after a hail storm....
10:50 exactly how an alternator on a car works their is no magnet but you need to send power to the alternator to initiate the magnetic field and generate power
Block by block concrete pouring. Dude was a Minecraft visionary. 😅
"Huh huh, Is this a God dam?"
Such a great video, but ruined by the cuts in audio causing cracking and popping.
@9:10 I really liked your videos.. but please use clean containers to show your experiment.
bro! john savage
Is this a re upload?
yeah, it's a thing they do to try nd get more followers, even tho it's counterproductive
According to the official drawings of the dam it is 726 feet from the lowest point at the foot of the dam at 506 feet to the top at 1232 feet.
present sir
Why has Lesic’s animation quality decreased significantly?
Using same old software probably...I'm no animator. I just watch Corridor Crew. Perhaps Lesics should just use Unreal Engine 5, so Lesics can see the animations and renders in real-time.
It's comically bad
@@EyesOfByes that's not how animation works, it's like drawing: using better paper and pencils won't change your ability to draw, they look bad simply because they stopped putting in as much time(or money).
Same way we did Niagara Falls. Did you know at night they shut part of the falls off by diverting most of the water into the turbines
I would wonder if i want to review on your video in my language to my citizens for their knowledge and also put as well the source link where also many people can visit your videos in English language, are there any restrictions to review on your video. Thanks
When will the dam have to be pulled down?
Love your videos, but pls leave out the music
Those are nice theories. But we all know it was really built by ancient aliens.
10:14 ohh that's how a turbo works in side the supra💀💀💀
16:35 - It took 6 years to fill Lake Mead, so viewers couldn't see the huge reservoirs of water after just one month.
Did they actually test water overflow or were there any such situations in real life?
When music came on I thought I had received a notification on my tablet. The music then got annoying
Wooooow 15:54 ❤❤❤❤
What happens when bearings, etc. need replacing?
That guy only ran 10 steps before Detonating the dynamite
