Hey everyone! So its seems that the bridge from the #StarTopic is actually from Uruguay and not India! Wanted to clarify it, since one of our researchers made this small location mistake. Either how, what are your thoughts on the bridge?

@Code Tech If so, why is there no lane change?

@Guillermo Wild . I’ve been there to, Uruguay 🇺🇾!!!

In Uruguay 🇺🇾 bridge, Circular 🔄 . Laguna Garzón Bridge, Rambla, Departamento de Maldonado, Uruguay, map.

@Owen Rex I will try it out now. Seems great so far.

The circle design makes the cars slow down. So its not an awful design it can save lives lol

Ugly building diesny

Straight

India didn't have this kind of bridge cheked your source

# 1 should be Chernobyl

Remember the dust bowl ? Amazing history!!

#startopic I like it. I can see the benefit of slowing traffic down on a bridge. Less chance of accidents in an area that would be difficult to get rescue vehicles on in an emergency. Also, less chance of a vehicle going over the rail

Errr... The Tacoma Falls Bridge WASN'T an engineering failure: As you obviously don't understand how harmonics work; how might engineers know over 80 years ago? It was a FAILURE due to a MISTAKE. You need to look at the exChumpMeanderer-In-ClownShoes' INFRASTRUCTURE FAILURES from 2016 to 2020. AND your "researchers" obviously don't actually do any actual research. You're all just lazy.

Poorly done slow paced video with stupid commercials. I'm out!

The first shuttle wasnt ready until 1981. Therefore, no shuttle was ever used to rescue or assist Skylab, which came down in July, 1979.

At 4:12, the narration says 90 ft diameter, but the video shows 90 ft circumference. I could do the calculation to figure which gives 2.3 million gallons in a 50 ft tank, but I don't care.

#Startopic , i would rather drive around it ... give me more time to look at the water

that tower in north korea means that their capital city is doa. one day that tower has to come down, it is built with concrete and rebar, when it comes down it will cover the city of pyongyang in concrete, the whole city. one day it has to come down, that type of construction doesn't last forever. in their best case scenario they will end up with an artificial mountain in the middle of their city, but they would still probably end up covering the city in concrete dust to reduce that building to a stable hulk (collapse the internal structure). getting rid of that building without destroying the entire city in the process is basically impossible. trying to implode it would reduce it to powder, and ultimately it will collapse under it's own weight. pyongyang is fucked.

wow, someone mentioned tacoma narrows without saying "galloping girdy"

Well nothing new here.

Narrator’s voice is annoying. It’s pronounced walk way not wall qway.

India traffic travels on the left side of the road (with right hand driven cars) and the example shows that the traffic goes on the right side of the road. This wrong and is goofed up. Not sure about the authenticity of the location, where it is built

Some of these engineering disasters were shown on Modern Marvels. But what about the PEPCON disaster?

#14 AND 1000s more became diabetic...🤣🤣🤣

Titanic wasn't an engineering fail.

You're talking about Sky Lab but your video shows anything in space...This same holds true about the other failures showing other stuff instead of the subject in hand...Please show a little more professionalism in your videos.

Titanic. Thank you for the great movie

the ukrainian cancer child ad is annoying

2.48 is definitely not in India

Horrible voice

Skylab fell BECAUSE the shuttle wasn't ready to boost it to keep it in orbit. 17:40 (shuttle first flew in 1981 after Skylab crashed in 1979) One of the few i know the facts on and you have it wrong. PLEASE CHECK YOUR FACTS.

#STARTOPIC, I THINK IWOULD RATHER GO STRAIGHT 😊

What I do not understand about this channel's behavior is why it constantly posts #StarTopic content that is WRONG or lacking ANY REAL INFORMATION. THIS CHANNEL'S CONTENT ARE A TOTAL WASTE OF TIME.

No people lost their lives in that first bridge collapse, but a dog did die.

Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.

Nah crypto is way too volatile you can easily lose more than what you initially put in. If you really want to get into currency trading standard ForEx trading where the currencies are institution backed is a much better, although I will admit in some cases lower return, investment.

@MLM AMAN it's a scam man, all those accounts were made on the exact same day.

@Chleo Morgan that's normal with crypto

Believe me he's the best when it comes to Cryptocurrency trading, your profit is assured.

@Kelvin Stephan Thanks

Almost 5 minutes into the video and it's only on #13...

There are no such bridge in India. I am from India...#startopic

I find the use of the Challenger explosion tasteless when talking about pieces of Skylab raining down on Australia. Do better.

19:25 Nice Poppyfields

What's up with that cum ghost thing?

it's the Tacoma NARROWS bridge, aka Galloping Gertie.

...or, at least it was, the Tacoma Narrows bridge!

Ney the no such bridge in India. Stop your anti Asian hated

about the second topic, the bridge in India. we don't know why the engineers had built it like that rather than keeping it straight. there are so many reasons why we should avoid certain spots in the water. as a civil engineer myself, i know these reasons. maybe because the sand or silt that the footing is to be built on a straight basis is not as strong as the ones in the circular path. it's wise to choose the safety of the motorists rather than the budget of the government right?

star topic right? straight

Laguna Garzón Bridge is not in India.

Bridge that snapped the first bridge there was a dog in the car who died

Maybe the loop of the bridge is for uturn

Not exactly true that no one died in Tacoma Narrows bridge collapsed. There was a cocker spaniel in the car that went down with it.

Why you talk so s l o w

What a stupid Chanel full of shit info can’t ven get the locations straight

40:00: It's Tacoma Narrows Bridge, not Tacoma Washington Bridge.

I don't know who the rocket scientists were that designed that circular bridge but IMHO it's stupid design. Make it straight and they most likely would have saved a few hundred thousand dollars.

A dog died in the Tacoma Narrows bridge collapse. He was so scarred he bit a would he rescuer who tried to get him out of the car, so when the bridge collapsed he went onto the water with the car and presumably drowned.

Dam i drive frequently in the Québec bring

wakenya ati bridge ya circle si kwa ubaya navukanga mbao jamo mto flani juja na nyinyi mna komplain

1:09 "It was also the first cable suspension bridge and the third largest of it's kind". That doesn't make sense.

The bridge @ 2:33 doesn't look like India. Simply because drive on the left side

Was the skylab info made up by an 8yo? Sent a shuttle up to it? Wow what a joke.

2:34 wast of money and Gas.

This guy's narration makes Howard Cosell and Gilbert Gottfried soothing to listen to...

#Startopic Maybe there’s a deeper part there or there was an underwater sinkhole

2:45 ....well at least motorists wouldn't have to worry about oncoming traffic coming over the center line, and into their lane. Or, maybe it's pupose really was to slow people down and avoid people from trying to pass eachother on the bridge. edit: hmm, after looking for this bridge out of curiosity, it turns out it's not in India, but is in Garzón, Uruguay..

@henry Schwisow I guess it "could" be part of it... but I would think if that if that was the case, they'd just move the entire bridge over a bit, keeping both lanes together

What if it was really deep in the middle, so that was the best choice

Error ... The ring bridge is in Uruguay Not in La India..pendejo

WTF!!!!!! Why does this Guy talk like he's taking a huge dump!!!!! I can't finish the video!!!!!

..maybe he was! :D

What engineer doesn't fact wind in to building a suspension bridge?

they factored wind into it - they were just ignorant of harmonics.

a dog lost its life on yj tacoma narrows bridge

#startopic straight bridge.

Straight

Most of these have absolutely nothing to do with engineering problems. And the Quebec bridge did not completely fall into the river, only the center section did. You take way too many shortcuts in telling these stories, just stick to the facts please.

Bb*

I lost interest at 'oopsie', show some respect for the dead

The Tacoma Bridge ( actually 2 bridges) is NIT built over a river as the video says. It spans the Tacoma Narrows strait of Puget Sound in Pierce County, Washington.

Yes we have failed sound engineers 😁

its a very Nice bridge worth driving around for the love of Art.

The one with the building in north Korea....doesnt sound like an engineering fail to me but rather a logistics fail on the side of the developer and regime

#startopic there would have been something in the way to stop them going straight

It's the hard turns on either approach. The curves prevent road exits to excess speed that happens with a straight away

Yall really like that centipede. Ad far as the bridge goes I've been watching this channel long enough to assume it doesn't really exist...

The most appalling vocal-fry I've heard from a man. Couldn't listen past five minutes or so.

I want to know why they built it that way, did they feel it was too long to be safe?

I subed I won't risk it

One of Titanic's coal bunkers was on fire before it even left England. The Captain made a decision to go full steam ahead because the Titanic might have run out of coal. That would not have gone down well especially on its maiden voyage. There were some significant design issues such as steel specifications for the exterior hull skin, bulkhead design etc. The rest is history.

0:39 When the Tacoma Washington bridge failed. The car that you see had a dog that was inside it. The guy running away from that car is the owner of the dog and the car. Yeah I know he was trying to save himself but he could have gotten the dog too.

@John Job I would even do it. If I was going to die. I'm a dog owner and they are part of the family. I would die for my dog just like I would die for my family.

Apparently, you were at the scene. I'd like to see you trying to save your dog from a car on a collapsing bridge...another statistic

Galloping Gertie The Tacoma narrows bridge spans the puget sound not a river.

Nooo not the centipede

Wow nice comment, you comment so good tell me where are you from?

How can Chernobyl be discarded?

Anyone else notice a suspicious void in this list? Shouldn't Chernobyl have made the cut? That town is STILL a nuclear hot spot to this day, and has been for the last 35 years.

@Pablo Hammerly the flaw in design doesn't necessarily HAVE to be in the physical engineering. In the case of Chernobyl, the flaws were in the system . The people working there KNEW there was a problem. In the west; Private Fred sees a problem, so Private Fred pushes the red button. But in the USSR, if Private Fred sees a problem, he has to tell Corporal Joe. Corporal Joe goes back over everything Fred did and sees that; yeah, there's a problem alright. So Corporal Joe has to report it to Sargent Mac. Sargent Mac AGAIN goes over everything, and sees there's a problem. So he has to report it to Master Sargent Henry. And after more redundancy, Master Sargent Henry reports it to Lieutenant Phill. Lieutenant Phill, rechecks and passes the buck up to Captain Jeff, who checks and passes the hot potato to Major Bob, who passes it to Colonel Ed, who passes it to General Al, who decides that they need to try to fix things. But after it's too late to just push the red button, General Al sends it up the next ladder of bureaucracy, till someone FINELY sticks their neck out and gives the permission to push the red button....after the whole shebang has already gone critical, and the wildlife for miles around are already glowing in the dark. Not ALL poorly engineered systems are HARDWARE problems.

@SonicSpeed0705 The Titanic sank due to multiple causes, some of which were engineering fails. Someone in upper management of White Star Lines (owner of the Titanic) decided that their rich passengers should be able to have views unobstructed by lifeboats, so a row of lifeboats on each side was removed from the design, since they concluded that an "unsinkable" ship would never need so many lifeboats. That's an engineering fail that was really a management fail -- after all, the engineer has to follow the orders from his bosses if he wants to keep his job, even if he thinks his bosses are idiots. Other engineering fails: 1) The steel used to make the Titanic was lower quality than it should've been -- it became brittle in cold temperatures which is why the rivets broke when the ship sideswipped the iceberg; 2) The watertight doors that were supposed to be closed in the lower decks were in bulkheads that didn't connect to the ceiling. A watertight compartment with a bulkhead that doesn't reach the ceiling isn't watertight. That's basic common sense, so there's no excuse for such an epic engineering fail. Other factors that led to the disaster or increased the death toll: 1) The lookout who was supposed to watch for icebergs didn't have any binoculars (epic management fail). 2 &3) The radio operator was ordered to focus on sending out telegrams from the rich passengers and to ignore warnings from other ships about icebergs, since the Titanic was "unsinkable," so those warnings never got to the captain who had ordered "full speed ahead," as he wanted to reach New York on schedule; 4) The Titanic left for New York with a fire burning the coal in the lower decks -- that weakened the steel hull which made it more vulnerable to damage from the iceberg (again, an engineering fail which was really a management fail); 5)Gates were locked, so the poorest passengers in steerage couldn't reach the upper decks -- almost all of them went down with the ship.

@Julie Baker: Chernobyl wasn't an engineering fail. If I recall correctly, the managers running the nuclear power plant were doing a safety drill, but the personnel hadn't been properly trained on safety procedures -- that's a failure of management and training, i.e. human error, not a flaw in engineering design.

@billy manilli Can't say I have

@SonicSpeed0705 to be fair, there WERE some engineering fails associated with the Titanic. But, were it not for the coincidences you mentioned, they shouldn't have been anywhere NEAR enough to make it sink. And I DO think you are right about it being the one on the list that shouldn't have made the cut.

I like it... thanxxx

@layne mackie How are you doing Layne hope you are having a wonderful Sunday over there?

@layne mackie Alright I'm not always active here on YouTube due to the nature of my job and I'll like us to stay connected and get to know more about each other may be God have good plans for us meeting this way, what did you think about?

@Daniel Woods Yeah! some well-needed downtime ... You didn't say if you liked the bridge?

@layne mackie How are you doing, hope you had a wonderful sleep 🛏 last night?

@layne mackie Thank you once more for your response Colleen, I'm Daniel Woods, from San Jose California but currently in Mexico for a contract, am an independent contractor working 400miles deep in the ocean, what are you doing for a living?

Interesting compilation....

13 item the bridge not belongs to India.

Checked on the Indian bridge in Uruguay and saw it was to slow down traffic, act as a fishing spot and be a talking point. Looks like it has achieved its goal.

#StarTopic i would rather the straight bridge

#star topic it's a waste of time and money 💰💰..

Seems India has too much money, becouse they build that roundgoing bridge. What cause they had for ?

Why does this voice over guy speak so.......strangely?

One love

Lucki

14:09 I didn't know they had cars in 1863.

Oh yeah, definitely! Late 1930's Ford coupes are VERY popular. lmao nice catch!

Shoddy engineering and construction in china? I'm just shocked!

at least people who built got jail.

HUH! And here I have bern doing guard work at the Walt Disney Concert Hall for about two and a half weeks, as to a movie being shot here!

OMG so much BAD information. It wasn't a "narrow" bridge, it was named the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. It didn't fall into a river, it fell into "the narrows" of Puget Sound. I just couldn't watch past those strikingly obvious errors, knowing I would be receiving more incorrect information.

Dear God did they need that much molasses

Please stop exaggerating your voice...very annoying!!

NASA did NOT send a space shuttle to extend Skylab's lifespan. The first launch of space shuttle happened in April 1981, but Skylab had fallen out of the sky in July 1979 -- almost two years previously!!! There was a plan to possibly use space shuttle to service Skylab, but space shuttle was too far behind schedule to be a solution.

Wow nice comment, you comment so good tell me where are you from?

Thumbs up in spite of narrator's irritating affected voice.
