    For anyone who's had to tear down and rebuild an engine, hearing it firing up again is possibly one of the world most beautiful sounds

      How y’all do it is incredible. So much intricate detail you HAVE to remember and get exactly right. I feel like you gotta be at least a little smarter than the average tbh. Like that’s a lot of wiring you gotta remember. And making sure everything is perfect so the engine runs and stays that way. My engine blew out last summer and had to take it in two different times before dude got everything done right in the new one to make the car run. Shit was crazy to watch. I got mad respect for the car community fr. I just do basic maintenance like oil changes and tire rotation on my own car and even that takes a lot out of me 💀

    To those wondering: This engine was not actually fired.
    Engines this size are started by compressed air rather than electric starter motors. It takes a while for the momentum, and subsequently timings, to build so that the engine fires correctly. That is the cause of the slowly increasing RPM or Hz of sound in the video. If the cylinders fire the sound they produce literally shake/vibrate your lungs and body. You would really want to wear ear plugs *and* ear muffs to stand next to this engine as it runs.
    Fun fact: Engines this size don't really have a huge span in RPM like in your car. They are pretty much just on or off.

    For everyone asking on the huge engine at 9:08, googling the model number shows that it's a MAN B&W DM884WS-150, housed in Diesel House museum in Copenhagen, Denmark.
    Wikipedia
    " The largest of the engines, which was built in 1932 and remained the world's largest for more than 30 years, stands 12.5 meters tall and 24.5 meters wide and weighs 1,400 tons. It produces 22,500 HP and supplied Copenhagen with electricity. It remained in use during peak demand until the 1970s. During World War II a resistance group consisting of workers at the power station used the engine for hiding weapons. It is started up the first and third Sunday every month at 11 am and runs for 5 to 10 minutes."

    2:09 Dude's lack of reaction to the 'atom bomb' being started is impressive

    The tiny prop on the Allison is great!

    3:15 I've worked on these big diesels before and they are truly amazing

      Have you ever worked on engines similar to 9:09
      The camshaft is the best part. It is about the size of a Ford fiesta camshaft. The square shaped cams trigger hall switches that in turn open and release pressure to the hydraulic rams above each valve.
      Starting the engine using compressed air to push one piston down is also great fun. If it fails to start, it takes about 15 minutes to crank the piston back to 5 degrees ATDC. By that time, the air tanks are full enough to have a second attempt to start the engine.
      Needless to say, these engines are 2 stoke and run on heavy diesel that is almost solid at room temperature.
