  1. What an extraordinary piece of engineering ! Amazing. 👍👑 I sure hope that 'damper' works properly when the breeze starts to blow! 😲😊

  2. Let's hope the engineers figured out the wind harmonics for such a length of suspension.... 🌬🤔 😊 Also, after so many Aussies (and Turks) died in battles like Gallipoli in WWI - LEST WE FORGET - it's great to see the Aussie connection with this project. M 🦘🏏😎

  3. Good to see that Melbourne is the biggest. Sydney is STILL the BEST. No doubt. M 🦘🏏😎

  4. Stuttgart Rail Project - A JOB FOR LIFE ! 😄

  5. @ 2:49 "... feel the sound around them ..." Nothing new here - when I was a kid I saw EARTHQUAKE at the cinema with Sensor-Round sound. Nearly blew the whole audience out of their seats! 😲 I'm SURE this will be better though.... 😁 M 🦘🏏😎

  6. A 'spillway' that is 50m high is pretty darn impressive! 😮 The whole project is truly MASSIVE! 😁 M 🦘🏏😎

  7. When one has a lot of the stuff that may not be needed very much by very many very soon, one has an incentive and a timer on spending and developing quickly. I suspect for every petro-dollar they spend today, they will reap $1.65 over the decades to come. Good business.

  8. Hi B1M, Thank you for EXPLAINING! 🙏 Given the grid structure of NY, I always wondered where that weird little lot came from... 🤔 Structural steel with 'lightweight' stone cladding is brilliant design. Whoever conducted the "auction" clearly had no clue. They certainly were negligent in their due diligence... 🙄 M 🦘🏏😎

  9. NOT unexpected to see that a building built out of a 'divided' environment itself continued to divide the population! 😁 It's great that the amazing venue will have a re-birth of sorts. 🥰👍 M 🦘🏏😎

  10. @ 0:16 NO. Not 'extending' our city, more accurately "CONNECTING" our city. People have been crying out for public transport for DECADES. The first section of the Sydney Metro from Chatswood is superb! 👍💎 It's super speedy and really quiet. We must get people out of cars... M 🦘🏏😎

  11. I suspect - and fear - that it will take a disaster before anything is done. Awful. M 🦘🏏😎

  12. Brilliant !!! 🙏 I just hope I can live long enough to see it... 👀

  13. Not "cheap"? Correct ENGLISH is "CHEAPLY". Surely you learned this at school... As a Sydneysider, I am betting that this line will NEVER BE BUILT. M 🦘🏏😎

  14. @ 0:05 "... a record China never wanted to hold ..." Amongst MANY such records, one would imagine... 👎

  15. What's a "disaster"? Many, many, many little mistakes all happening. Or it could be gross incompetence and / or corruption. Choose your society, really... The USA has, sadly many, many DECADES a lack of care and attention to blame. More will happen if serious money isn't spent. M 🦘🏏😎

  16. This is the FIRST I have heard of this amazing project. It excited me and the hairs stood up on my arms and neck. 😲 Sometimes seemingly simple puzzles need deep thought. Well done to all the engineers and planners who are making this happen! Genius. 👍😊 Funnily enough, the "tunnel in a trench" is NOT a new idea. It's how the first Underground railway was built in the UK! It's just that this one is so huge. 😁 Thanks as always to The B1M. 🙏 Updates when available PLEASE. M 🦘🏏😎

  17. Is the reduction in travel time of less than 40 minutes really that big of a deal? 🤔 Also, I'm sceptical that money will follow the rail tracks out of London... Some nifty graphics in this video, but there's a spacing error @ 11:11. Whoops. The whole project sounds like a great idea and yet turning into a big failure... M 🦘🏏😎

  18. We SYDNEYSIDERS love our undersea tunnels. We have multiple of them. We are the best at it. M 🦘🏏😎

  19. What's the prediction for how long it will take the fish populations to 'recover"? Let's hope the removal of all the dams goes to plan... M 🦘🏏😎

  20. Sorry. It's simply not possible. Why? It doesn't make any money. M 🦘🏏😎

  21. What an amazing piece of history! 😮 Thank you B1M! 👍 After decades of calamity, at least Berlin Brandenburg Airport is now operational! 😁 In comparison, the Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport (WSI) cost about $5.3 AUD. It was a rural suburb with a small population before construction began. WSI will open in late 2026 after an 8 year build. M 🦘🏏😎

  22. Superb architecture, design and construction! 👍😍 But being like Singapore is a distant goal. Location, location, location... Regardless, I would love to visit Cambodia... M 🦘🏏😎

  23. Well, Jim Casey did a SUPERB job on the opening Titles! Outstanding design and detail! 💎 Great fun! 🤗 Vauxhall Cross is an amazing structure - regardless of who works there... M 🦘🏏😎

  24. @ 0:45 With developments like this there's more and more tangible proof that we are moving to types of world we have seen and read in sci-fi - where the rich and fatuous can do whatever they want and have no interest in anyone other than people of their level of wealth. The building's engineering is impressive - the social engineering is FRIGHTENING! 😨 @ 2:52 "... tax breaks and government programs to fund itself..." So the mega-rich don't even have to get their toes wet. Awful and possibly corrupt. 👎 M 🦘🏏😎

  25. Thanks B1M - interesting video. But badly flawed IMHO. Apart from the nice shiny colour-changing skin of the building, you omitted ANY info about how the place actually works....... You know little things like: water; power; transport; catering; safety; sewerage; and its 'eco rating'. YOU TOLD US NOTHING OF ANY OF THESE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS! Not good. 👎👎

  26. OMG! 😧 Are you people at B1M trying to REINVENT GEOGRAPHY? 🤔 @ 1:12 MOSCOW is NOT IN EUROPE. Holy frigging cow! 😲 THAT is a real clanger! (PUTRID PUTIN 🤮 would throw a fit is he saw this video.) Maybe you need to get your facts straight...... M 🦘🏏😎

  27. This is the first I have heard about this 'doomed' QLD dam - and I live in Sydney! 😮 Thanks to The B1M for informing us all. 👍 The new dam must be built asap. M 🦘🏏😎

  28. Australian politicians DISGUST me !!! 🤮 We have enormous reserves of uranium and yet for political reasons that come from thinking from the 1960s, we Aussies still do not have a single nuclear power plant. I hope they all see this video, the shameless selfish buggers..... 😠 M 🦘🏏😎
