Great work done by the engineers and workers
Great thinkers,great inventors, hard work
Wow they make hoover dam from fallout new vegas into a real thing!
Really cool!
come to india ,we've got marvellous ancient constrution in the world, much more than this "modern" dams.PROUD TO BE '"INDIAN"' JAI HIND .
lovely channel
I remember the history of hoover dam. It's amazing super 😜😜😜👌👌
When America led the world in technology and innovation. We has become too complaisant and have left other countries to take charge,
Beautiful dam
Amazing
And now the river doesn’t reach the sea
This reminds me of Percy Jackson..... It was a scene to remember. Still it is sad how 96 people died...... ;(
Worth the trip to see ! Plus you can get a ice cream cone while you see the view . Highly recommended .
Fangman00 ," my friend went to Hoover dam and all i got was this lousy ice cream cone"
J Bolo I loved it an the ice cream also. Thank for the comment
J Bolo well heck I would love to go again an have the ice cream cone , beats watch rain drops in Vancouver Washington 🇺🇸🥃🐈🎄
Why is there only one comment and barely veiws this is a interesting video that someday something might happen to the hooverdam
Gabe Lain Too many people are watching idiotic ‘entertainment’ videos, probably....
@@chrisvoiceactingvoiceover1431 people watch whatever they want, but there's always that one who calls things they don't like "dumb"
My god 96 people died building this... I hope they built a monument for the lives lost
Yes, yes they did. There are stories, true or not, dating to The time of construction that many are entombed within the structure itself.
Actually I watched a Video where they said if they actually buried people in in the structure it would have compromised the dams integrity. So that is actually false. Though if they did....This dam is one hell of a monument to their sacrifice. ^_^
Peter Crawford I saw the same video. However they said these people died on the job, not buried in the damn. I now know now that there is a monument to these people at the damn
They were all buried IN the dams foundations,so WHAT A MONUMENT!!! [waylon singing"...He fell into the wet concrete below"....Hiwayman,by the Highwaymen !!!
Why would they do this. I live in south africa where children were slaved at the age of 5-10. They worked and died and left to care for them self. Billions of them died but not one statue 😭😭😭😢😭😭😤😢😭😭
more then century/128y to cool the concrete if one continuous pour
This what am saying
Make America great again
No wars
Lol it was built by indian
Who was the designer of this dam
มีทุกสายน้ำ
มาแลหลายปีแล้ว
I love is video
And, it starved the entire watershed of water that it had been receiving for thousands of years.
By making a reservoir which supplies canals and pipes.
3 thousands of people died building the High Dam in Egypt. Some worked hard and died so others could live.
megathron was here
This bridge built by Indian guy Engineer
We know the history of this dam

It flooded? Maybe that was God's way of telling people not to live there. And the farmers weren't getting enough water? The farmers in Mexico barely get any now that the Colorado River barely flows a trickle on the Mexican side.
MondoBeno that was the point to keep the water, it's selfish. They need to expand on solar technology n break away all the dams n make lakes instead.
That's OUR water, not those durned Messykins!
jk...
I encourage everyone to learn history and travel whenever possible.
@@lordtigranes9877 You're a dumbass!
I would like to know when this was made, not just published. The fact remains that every time man interferes with nature, nature wins in the long run. Lake Mead has been drying up for at least 30 years now. The water level is at a critically low level, water will soon be below the level of the lowest part of the intake towers lowest water intake points soon. Whole sections of Lake Mead have disappeared revealing towns and villages long buried by it's waters . Marinas have been rendered useless now being on dry land. The white cliffs registering the water levels grow increasingly taller. Soon they will no longer be able to grow because all the lake will have vanished completely. I have personally wittinessed this for over the last thirty years, not by constant observation but by returning year after year to conical the decline. This has had the effect of greatly reducing the effects of the damns failure as stated in the above video.
Jolene Vilis - hi Jolene and thanks for an interesting comment. Are you saying that the water is draining by seepage or evaporation ? Or are these part of an overall Environmental change, like the contributary rivers have lessened through Climate change ? Or do you think that Climate change is the over-arching reason for the, from what you describe, huge losses of water from the Lake itself? And is there any signs of water Rising downstream of the Lake ?
Sorry for so many questions, and I'm not a Geologist or Environmentalist - although I do believe that everyone should be, in order to form their Own opinions and not rely on biased information from one Side or the other. I firmly believe that there wouldn't be such madness as Fracking, for example, if people were better educated in Schools.
I must admit a definite Interest in the case of Fracking, as US. Companies are completing "Exploratory Tests" here in the North of Ireland. Sorry - sidetracked as is usual 4 me ! Anyway if you have time, I'd like to read your answers. Thanks. KIERAN☘
2007 the water was overflowing since then California bought out Nevada’s share and has been pumping it dry so people can have water in California for crop growth
تم بنائه في سنه 1931 واستغرق انشائه 5 سنوات
and even this dam was built under guidance of an indian engineer

Transformers vibes anyone?
Oh ya
This didn’t answer the question.
LEGION go home !!!

People wanted to get paid
Keeping the water, it's selfish. They need to expand on solar technology n break away all the dams n make lakes instead.
Ummm this doesn't explain anything!!!! Lies thumbs down
All the worlds dam should be demolished and rivers allowed to move naturally
Do you realize how much electricity is produced that is clean
Besides Solar Power, Hydro-thermal, and Nuclear Power. Hydroelectric is one of the cleanest and safest ways to get electricity on Earth. By using water to turn massive turbines to make electricity, you have virtually, limitless energy. Not to mention it's environmentally safe for the atmosphere. But some Dams aren't used for Hydro-electricity. Some are made to control flooding. They are there to make sure that places downstream of the dam don't get flooded. Without Dam's. We wouldn't have Hydro-electric energy. And we wouldn't have a way to make sure towns, villages, and cities never flood again.
junaid anwar you should go back to whatever 3rd world country you came from or stay there. let me guess. you pick fruit in a field all day.
Nuclear Power? One of the safest? :D Hahaha. So funny bro. Yeah it was "one" before it will trigger a nuclear meltdown.
junaid anwar with the rising population, electricity demand is rising every secound. We can no longer use fossil fuels to provide energy due to the amount of green house gases which they produce. Yes I think that rivers should flow naturally, but renewable power like hydroelectric is the way of the future with the expanding population.
Over 90 BLACK PEOPLE DIED building the HOOVER🏞DAM!
