Does anybody build mega projects as cool as China?
Where but in China do megaprojects lose half their budget to graft and then fall apart in a few years?
maybe Saudi Arabia
@@Billu.Bhau.5 dude that bridge is only 43km long not beating any china records lol..i am an Indian and i have visited all the mega cities of India and china. india is no comparisson . only way india can do anything close is to start building new cities from scratch. But considering Modi he will only do random things in Gujrat so wont really match China's infrastructure in another 100 years.. Only place i think that will matchup in construction is some of the arab countries.
@@lucijanpraprotnikthere is no river in saudi
India is a federal state. No one stopped states from building new cities. If you are indeed Indian you should know that in AP, old govt run by a regional party started buliding a new capital city. The new regional party which succeed it - pulled all the new buildings citing corruption. Then they proposed 4 cities themselves and have not built anything.
Central govt cannot decide on building cities , towns in states! If you are referring to new cities being built in Gujarat, they both were projects started by Modi when he was Chief Minister of State. You cannot blame modi for being visionary or for inefficiency of state govt. In Maharashtra, a new city is being planned - hopefully state govt completes it
This news is more than a decade old. The Danyang-Kunshan Grand Bridge construction was completed in 2010 and the bridge opened in 2011/
New to me mate !
The fact that this was done over a decade ago makes this even more impressive.
@@peterfrank1572they just opened the best one now. Zhongshan shenzen brigde
China is a good example of how much a country can achieve when the govt focuses expenditures on its own country and people rather than starting unnecessary wars all over the world like the US. The graphics of China in this video are breathtakingly beautfiul.
China is a good example of a country with a per capita income a fraction of the us.

@@wa2784He's basically saying China's poorer. Which makes these projects even more impressive!
Gigantic congratulations China.I'm excitedly watching your so beautiful and world class infrastructure almost everyday.
What a complete prat.
It took Chinese 4 years to build 102 miles this amazing structure. In the UK, it takes 4 years, sometimes longer to upgrade several miles of 3-lane motorway to 4 lanes🤣🤣
US same asUK. Takes forever for simplest road projects.
New Zealand is the worst
8 years to build a couple of interchanges
In America it would take ten decades
And this is how u build a door into corruption 😂
UK is corrupt and full of dossers.
True story: In Washington, DC (the capital of the US for those who don't know), we have an overpass bridge that is deteriorating and unsafe (with a D- rating by the ASCE - American Society of Civil Engineers). Chunks of concrete have fallen down to motorists on the road below (you can search for article "Chunk of overpass falls on car in D.C." - Washington Examiner). It took at least 3 years of the infighting bureaucracy... and it is still there without proper repair or replacement. Their final solution is to put up a net under the bridge to catch the fallen chunks of concrete!
None can break China's development
China's development is astonishing
Apna bhi karlo kuchh. Dusro ko dekh dekh ke kab tak gyan baatogey.
@@try_dc6366 OP is being realistic. You are delusional. China is indeed one of the best in Infra constructions. Itna Ego mat rak.
Our govt did not even build a Metro network on MTHL. They did not even leave space in the middle to build the Rail later on. Such bad planning. Its honestly a disgrace.
This bridge is freaking 163 kms & they have built a Rail network on it for atleast 60% of the bridge. This is impressive.
That’s what they said about the US during the 1950s.😅😅
@@qjtvaddictracism bombs war
@@dinot1609 ... wut. They have notoriously shoddy infrastructure and construction techniques. There's literally a term for it specifically lmao. Buildings randomly collapse, the finished materials are so weak they can be torn apart by a child's bare hands. Traffic gets swallowed up by sink holes or crushed by giant pieces of bridge falling off. Entire cities flood, not due to a disaster level storm but just poor urban planning and infrastructure and nonexistant drainage.
And this is just the events in major cities that actually made the news, there's no telling how much has been covered up by the government, or how bad it is in the more rural towns and countryside, which makes up the VAST majority of the country.
OMG what is this. Mind-blowing achievement
Only 4 years. Very impressive
It is possible because the "bridge" is a viaduct on land. That means you can work along its entire length anywhere you want simultaneously, as opposed to building something like a suspension bridge where you can only access it from two ends.
I don't feel. It is scary.
Chinese are very scary.
I don't feel what you said. I just saw they abandoned a very long bridge. What are you thinking now?
FREE HAWAII. I WANT MY COUNTRY BACK FROM THE WARMONGER INVADERS.
Agreed
Keep dreaming, Americans are evils they won’t free Hawaii
These East Asian guys are living in 2080 already
These guys built the Great Wall of China over 3000 yrs ago with no technology so this is a piece of cake.😅
$8.5Billion for 160km bridge, and we cant build a 300km railway line in the UK for less then £100BILLION and it still needs scrapping, yes the economics are different but that still doesnt take away from their skill and capabilities vs our incompetences LOL, well done China
Shame US and Europe . They too busy. But China keep going ahead
Chinese geography is so extreme that it demands these feats of engineering
Wow this was a big project with a lot of cash up for grabs.
India just opened its longest “Sea bridge ” which is approx 22km long
This bridge is longer then indian

How nice to have one from Batam Indonesia to Singapore
You cant convince me this isnt snake way from dbz
The fact that he had to mention flat earthers …
This bridge was opened already in 2011..
You don't watch the video right?
Its not the HK Macau bridge
In Toronto Canada (Eglinton Crosstown LRT), it takes 30 years, $12.8B just build a 5km Light Rail Train and still not complete, today. Sarcastically speaking, it took 5 years just to come up with a name, 10 years to design and 15 to build and counting. Most of businesses in the areas have gone bankrupt.
Apparently this bridge opened like 12 years back
The video quality is improving.
They did a great job of finding old footage and editing it together.
@@delavan9141 I mean the technical details are better. More engineering details, less talking like a marketing executive (the worst kind of executive).
Good people MashaAllah China🇸🇦🏫
Why do they always show it going over large stretches of water when most of the route from.Shanghai to Nanjing is over land. Can anybody tell me? Are they all just showing the same small part where it goes over water?
China is great....
When the video mentioned about how the curvature of the Earth affected the building of long bridges, I was unconvinced. But after thinking for a while, I realized that that is true especially for long bridges above seas and oceans. The surfaces of seas and oceans are curved when we look at a wide area of them. (The same thing is less obvious on land.) How much this curvature affects a bridge is beyond my comprehension but may be of importance to the builders of the bridge. The curvature of the Earth surface is also important in planning the trajectories of satellites, spacecrafts, missiles and the flights of high speed airplanes.
The earths curvature is no different to building a curved wall with square bricks, ok thats a crude analogy but the point being that the curve is so subtle with land measurements being taken at every single pillar, it isn't exactly difficult for professional surveyors to account for with minor adjustments along the way.
I mean each section of the bridge is probably only a few hundred feet long at best, and the curvature of the earth is usually visible from about 5km, meaning that if you are stood on the shore it would take 5km out to sea before ships begun to disappear over the horizon, so unless a single span is more then 5km in length the curvature wont affect any structure, it just means more readings are required to make sure each piece of the bridge fits the last.
These people are awesome
Great video Thank You 🏫
if a typhoon hit , you will die but the bridge wont
I like how you mentioned that most of the bridge is over land and didn't show large expenses of water to imply otherwise, while not displaying pictures of Guilin karst mountains in southern China while talking about the soft ground in the Shanghai metro area.
Right
I remember taking an overnight train from beijing to shanghai. It took 18 hours! 😂
WOW😮
Kinda afraid of heights so I mean driving on a bridge that's on the ocean is just give me anxiety 😂
I like the earth is round part, necessitate curvature alignment of the bridge, which did not occur to me before watching this video.
How were they able to adjust to the curvature of the globe earth? Something doesn't quite add up because its straight for 102km.
Can anyone enlighten me how this is possible
In the USA this would have cost 80 billion dollars and at least 15 years or more
Good job China 🇨🇳 Transportation Minister Construction workers for building the New Bridge 🌉 in China 🇨🇳
2000 years ago.. It was said.. Romans built roads, Chinese built bridges
What else has China has in mind regarding mind-blowing gigantic infrastructures?
This is how great China now!😮💪👍
You can play Road Fighter on that.😂
China is actually a beautiful country, geographically speaking. This 163KM long bridge/flyover Highway seems unnecessary and even impractical though. You wouldn't want to be stuck on this bridge if your car had any issues and you needed to stop. It is still a remarkable feat of engineering but, I seriously wish the CCP did more to help people with their actual issues and less with optics in mind.
That’s the first question that came to my mind. I guess they made some maintenance stops at every interval.
Have you been there? As a Civil engineer who have VISITED the places mentioned, Elevated Structures are the BEST solution given the Dense Population there. As for Cars.lorries.etc breaking down ... There are EMERGENCY "LayBy AREAS" which allow for such emergencies. And their Monitoring, Evaluation and Response personnel are Second to None.
@@sunshinesun121 I haven't been there and I am only pointing out the logistical challenges. Even with lay byes and multiple exits, this long stretch of a bridge is going to be challenging in dense fog, earthquakes and extreme weather. Remarkable engineering but, one would have to carefully plan everything including fuel economy. Even more so in the case of electric vehicles.
you know too much about China from Disney channel and CIA easy readers so I feel sorry for you. I understand you prefer rustic and rusty American roads and bridges because you are sort of nostalgic bloke, very likely very practical and fun of helping people the way for which Sumak or Biden are so famous for. Good luck

Congrats china.

Makes America look dumb
So, does it have any tofu dregs?
Where I live in Lafayette, Indiana, it took 3 years to rebuild one half of a bridge over a river and the length of the bridge was about 1/3 rd of a mile. And I bet it cost a lot more if you calculate the cost per mile. These days India is building huge projects even faster and cheaper than China.
Good for India.
Good joke, Indians building faster than China?😆😆😆.
Can you just call it the Grand Bridge from here on out?
that's not news. It has been open for at least 10 years already.
cool but there is a problem, they are building to much, the maintenance costs are going to be to high in the future to maintain al of these highways.
My country (belgium) has the problem that they build to much roads after the war, witch now has to be maintained at a high cost. Of course if the money keeps flowing then there will be no big problems but nothing keeps going forever.
but your country have smaller area, smaller export, smaller population and smaller GDP compared to China...
so, in my opinion what their goverment have been building still relatively minuscale compared to their land area, to their revenue from their export, to the tax collected from their population, and to their massive GDP..
I can believe we have to make an exception and explain politely to flat earth theorists that the Earth has a round curvature 😆🤣

USE METRIC UNITS instead of horse-and-buggy feet and miles.
China, well, that's the future...
So where is the curve of 8in per sq mile😂 seems to me pretty straight besides the random incline and decline for ship crossings etc.

Great China....❤
Why does a video concerning a civil engineering project wholly in China's lowlands show scenes of mountain scenery over a thousand miles to the West ? It is like showing film of Norwegian fjords on a video wholly concerned with the Thames Estuary or shellfish farming in Brittany.

You drill into the bedrock if you know anything about engineering, you don’t build anything on mud. This is not the 1940’s, all major construction is built on pile foundations in the bedrock,it’s been obvious for many years ✌️❤️🇬🇧

No doubt! China's a new superpower country that surpassed USA's on PPP, GDP already 2,3 years ago in reality but on paper documents it says still USA ahead of china which is totally false. China's Meghaa structural buildings, vast infrastructure, unbelievable bridges, complete roads and industrial revolutionized are really really greatest & impressive whereas in here in usa and Europe they're still struggling on huge unemployment, political corruption& lobbying just on personal/group benefits rather than it's national citizens or mass human welfare, terrifically drugs problems, political disintegration, vast amounts of citizen's tax-waste, on non productivity, funding on war-confliction for few individuals or companies self-centered benefits, total failure on illegal immigration, uncontrolled enormous homeless peoples& crimes! Astonishingly today all of world's economic growth and progression on growths of human activities are gradually shifting towards eastern Asia. No surprise for whole world and usa to accept when CHINA has already been emerged as new world's "superpower" ! This is truth. This is fact. Although, these westerners and their so called world's supremacy still can't digest it. Yes, it's definitely hard to believe and yet' their hypocrisy has not letting them to accept their failure!But truth is truth no-matter how efforts they trying to manipulate their propagandas but modern-day-people has slowly realizing this fact! -✍✍
China's strength is still not comparable to that of the United States. They are catching up. On the whole, many countries in Asia are trying to keep up with the pace of world development.
It opened 13 years ago. It probably already collapsed.
Haha. Nope, it’s still there. China can build infrastructure, UNLIKE a lazy USA. Lol
Who want to use this bridge with no access to gas / charging station?
As an Indian, never liked the Chinese communist party. But they are the bestimthe eorld whenit comes to construction.
I don't like this bridge. I just saw they abandoned a very long bridge. This is another one ruclips.net/video/Lck_ugnP6Cs/видео.html.

THAT bridge was built OVER A DECADE AGO
The bridge was built without democrazy , human rights yelling and freedom shouting. It freed the Chinese people tho, to greater convenience of travel.😂
Democracy is a western ideology which is not applicable in all parts of the world. human rights in the Europe may differ from the rest of the world. but europe wants wants to force its ideologies to the rest of the world which is annoying. Branding itself as super power and yet it is economically limping.
