    One VERY IMPORTANT item left out in this list is the Mponeng gold mine in South Africa. It's 4km deep and also the deepest point in the crust of the earth a human has ever been.

    One time I went to my friends cottage with him, right on the beach!
    So we dug a MASSIVE hole.
    We strated up on banks where there were small shubs and grass and no one would bother us.
    Made it down 8 feet and about 12 across with a ramp dug into one side.
    With help from my friends older brothers and their dad of course.
    The sand had alot of clay in it, and a mostly clay layer at the last 3 feet.
    We carved seats and let the clay layer fill with water and reinforced the sides with sticks and 2x4s.
    Around the hole was all our clay and sand, with it we made a 4 foot high wall around the hole, reinforced it with sticks, and found some plywood to put over it.
    It was still there 4 years later, just filled in a few feet and others had opened up the roof and made a fire pit with some makeshift chairs in the bottom.
    Was a fun place to go have a midnight smoke or beer with my friend when we visited after making it so long ago.

  • @McChes
    @McChes 3 года назад +2

    Quite a lot of inaccuracies in this one.
    - Stalin was dead by 1957, so definitely did not open Mirny Mine.
    - Mirny Mine is not the largest open cast mine in the world, as there are a few copper mines that are larger (Bingham Canyon Mine in Utah for a start).
    - BP is not “or British Petroleum” - it has not been called “British Petroleum” since 1998, when the old British Petroleum Plc merged with Amoco Corporation (an American company, formerly known as Standard Oil Company (Indiana)) and became BP Amoco Plc; and it changed its name to BP Plc after acquiring ARCO (another American company) and Burmah Castrol (another British company) in 2001.

      Yeah its pretty neat. Turns out its way more economical if a Russian oligarch has his yacht moved from the south of France to the Cayman Islands on a bigger boat with a bunch of other yachts. Don't have to pay a crew and you can divide the fuel bill 15 times with the other yachts being moved by the huge ship. Plus its a good opportunity to do dry dock maintenance.

  • @TheNameOfJesus
    @TheNameOfJesus 3 года назад

    @4:30, depending on the latitude of the mine (which is over 62 degrees North) and the slope of the hole, the southern face of the hole may not see any sunlight at any time of the day or even at any time of the year. This means that it will take extra months before the winter snow accumulation melts. I remember a place in Manitoba (around 50 degrees north), devoid of most sunlight due to heavy vegetation, where the snow didn't melt until late June or early July. The North pole is 90 degrees north. And 90-62=28, so when you add the Tropic's latitude, 23 degrees, to 28, you get 51 degrees from the vertical. So if the slope of the mine is over 39 degrees from the horizontal, (90-51=39) then one slice of it will never see sunlight. It looks to be at least that steep from visual inspection in this video. The Google Earth elevation data doesn't say anything about the elevation of the slopes of this mine. If someone from Mirny reads this comment, please tell us what time of the year the snow melts along the south side of this pit.

    BP is not an abbreviation for British Petroleum. It is the name that was chosen for the emalgumation of said British Petroleum and AMOCO (American Oil Company) in 1998. After another couple of aquisitions it became BP inc in 2001. All operations in the US (and indeed in many other countries) continued to operate in their own ways with same BP logo. Harmonisation of management, methodology, safety and risk assessment etc. had not been considered, let alone implemented. I say this as an independent consultant oil and gas exploration engineer, who was called out to Houston in 2010. The cause of it all was a bad call by the "company man" on the rig, who chose to try and save money by using the technigue of long well completion. All signs of impending disaster were ignored or overridden. A huge oil and gas service company named Schlumberger immediately chartered a chopper for their employees to evacuate after the guys on the rig called in with their concerns. No persons of British nationality were involved in any of this. Obumma used the name wrongfully in an attempt to shift the blame.

    In my opinion, the Mir Mine (Russia) does not deserve to be on this list/video.
    There are many other mines that are much larger/deeper, such as:
    - Bingham Canyon Copper Mine (USA)
    - Mponeng Gold Mine (South Africa)
    (just to name a few)
    Nevertheless, I still enjoyed the video... keep it up!
