Armstrong was a savage. Built an entire dam, ran thousands of pounds of copper, just for a couple of lights so he could have a few drinks with his buddies in his picture gallery.

I love the way you interlaced the increasing difficult examples of dam engineering development with the construction of the Three Gorges dam. Each step standing on the shoulders of the gigantic projects that went before. Pedagogy at its finest. Thank you!

Mega dams are among the greatest examples of multidisciplinary engineering. Their long-term success depends not just on massive concrete structures, but on careful geotechnical investigation, hydraulic design, structural analysis, and environmental planning working together. Impressive documentary showcasing the scale behind these projects. – Dr. Sera, P.E., PhD

I was a Hydro Repairman on the Klamath River Project until it was removed this year. Anyone hiring? Great doc, love to hear the history. Hope those Yangtze fish are ok 😂
