@@EarthquakeSim I think I will continue to cover notable structural failures, but it will take a while to make the next video. I envy your video production speed, you are pumping out brilliant videos multiple times a week!
In Québec, during the 1998 ice storm, we actually had quite a few transmission towers fall like dominoes. Back then, our network was built up 3 times stronger than required by the North American norms. It speaks volume to just how intense that ice storm was. Once one tower came down, it dragged the next one in line, and so on. Tens of kilometers of high tension lines were destroyed in just a few days. There's a lot of photos and videos on the web of those events. Events like that ice storm truly puts into perspective just how dependant we've become on electricity. That is even more true in Québec where most of our home heating is done with electricity. Despite other electrical utilities sending help from as far as Texas to rebuild the network, some peoples were without power for several weeks. Since then, Hydro-Québec has added fall arrest towers at regular interval to prevent the domino effect. They have also added more redundancy to the network to ensure that electricity can be rerouted should a line come down.
Great simulation & relaxing music. One small correction regarding comparisons. Elizabeth Tower is the vertical structure in which Big Ben (the clock) is placed. *_TRUST !!_*
cables would be aluminium not steel for power transmission. the second tower would collapse away from the first as the cables would not be in balance and allow the remaining cables to pull away from the collapsed tower.
Given the water is used for shipping, they must have figured that having overheard powerlines would be cheaper and more efficient than an underground cable.
RUclips: he'll watch anything, trust me
🤣I hope you enjoyed it
You have created an amazing simulation! I've also watched the most recent one about the radio tower in Poland. 🙂
Thanks so much for the the feedback, your channel is a huge inspiration!
@@Contraflex I'm so happy to hear that from you! What video ideas do you have next? :)

Underrated! I expected this channel to have 100K+ subs, but only 18? thats insane
keep it up!
Thanks for kind words! I look forward to releasing more videos 👍

Thank you for sharing, that event definitely highlights the importance of structural redunancy in maintaining power grids.
You've learned so much from my small tutorial! I need to post more 🙂
I really love the music and the video about the warsaw radio tower

*_TRUST !!_*
Thank you for clarifying, I never knew that, and that is a very interesting fact.
@Contraflex No worries. I learned that from a show on the Discovery Channel, a while back. 👍
Wait this guy doesn’t have over 100k+ subs?? IM SUBBING
"london power line is falling down"
If you're doing hypothetical collapes, you should do the Arch in St. Louis.
Thanks for the suggestion, that would definitely be an interesting structure to look into.
cables would be aluminium not steel for power transmission. the second tower would collapse away from the first as the cables would not be in balance and allow the remaining cables to pull away from the collapsed tower.
If I had modelled cables on the other side of both towers, the situation you described would have occured.
The comparioson is one of the best part of the simulation :Đ ☝👍👍✌✌👌👌👏👏💪💪😁😁
This animated are amazing 😮
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Wow so real in the Google map 🗺️
This that idle gta 5 music 😂❤
Chinese tofu dredge, construction, highest quality low cost no maintenance. What could go wrong
"Tofu-dreg" is an awesome phrase, I've never heard of it before
Not one single actual image.
What simulation software do you use?
He used blender
Yes Blender was used, specificially the Bullet Constraints Builder add-on.
@@Contraflex
Thanks
Powerlines over water??
Given the water is used for shipping, they must have figured that having overheard powerlines would be cheaper and more efficient than an underground cable.
Game name?
App name pls
Blender with the Bullet Constraints Builder add-on.
You should do 765kv in India one nice video😊
Game?
I created this simulation using Blender (animation software) with the Bullet Constraints Builder add-on.
@@Contraflex ohh
Can you make the tinsley towers please because it’s my favorite cooling tower
