amazing. love documentary like this
46:16 Not True.
The Three Gorges Dam has the highest capacity yes but power generation is based on more than the just the generation capacity of a dam. Over the course of a year the Itaipu Dam still produces more power than the Three Gorges since it's generators are being utilized at a higher capacity;

BIG
BIGGER
BIGGEST
one of my favourite documentaries ever
Geordie lad started all this off !
What a dam good program I'm watching.😊
So the Chinese took ideas and accomplishments from other countries and copied it. Anything they accomplished on their own?
One of the best documentary ever and also to add that more than 100's people died building this huge structure
15:43 Those Dam Engineers
My old coworker told me the govt took his land with out compensation for this project.
Damn, that's the biggest baddest dam!! xD
At 42:10 Smoothie anyone?! ba-ha-ha
CHINA NUMBA ONE
China invests billions in renewable energy, the US is still trying to burn coal.
I hope it's stocked because I'm a good dam fisherman
42:26 Chemist processes his favorite dish
That's the damnedest thing I've ever seen. Easier to move a million people in China. Move, or we'll kill you and your family.
I'll I have to say daaaaaaaaaam
20GW!!
And all it took was the flooding of 100,000's of people's homes and farms with no compensation for the people's lives it took. It also took many lives building the dam.
Fuck communism! 😠
People need to start to build cutting edge nuclear power plants and let ALL of the decisions being made by the scientists and NOT by money grabbing penny pinching billion £ companies. They need to start to put a load of money into fusion. Which we'll be able to dump all our use radioactive material into it to use it as fuel and as the same time it'll stop it being radioactive due to the heat.
I think it has to be well over 4,000oC before it stops becoming radioactive but don't hold me on that.
Before making your own judgment on pros/cons about Three Gorges Dam, is still held the world record for the biggest man-made structure at this moment.
Whether such engineering works to be considered as "to divert natural resources for the benefit of mankind" shall leave history to tell.
From engineering prospective, it shall give credit to all chinese engineers and workers for building the biggest dam in the world from his own resources without any foreign help (i.e. design & construction and financing)
waiting for tragedy to develop.
Hoover: I'm the biggest.
China: hold my dam water…
DAMN
In Canada, we can't even build pipelines, without miles of red tape..
Meh, not impressed. I'll wait for the 4 gorges dam
If Canada built a Three Gorges Dam here we would have power for every single citizen and for the next hundred years of growth. But instead puppet Trudeau would rather give our money and futures to muslims and third world immigrants who come here for free welfare while we lose our jobs and homes!
28 mil cu m's of concrete, I hope they put some steel in there as well! Thks Duck Go, there are 510,000 tons of steel.
It takes 29 years to plan and to talk(only) to build a subway system in Toronto, Thornhill area. And those MF politicians are still talking about it in 2019. The subway system is nowhere to be found. People only hear thunders but no fucking rain. This is Cana…………….da!
Howdy,Howdy
damn!
