History's Largest Warcraft | Supersized Structures | Spark

For as long as man has been alive, he has fought to defend what is rightfully his and fought even harder to take what is not. He soon figured out, the man with the biggest weapon has the advantage.
--
Many of mankind's ideas to build big seem impossible. It's an inescapable aspect of progress: things just keep getting bigger. This is the story of dams, highways, bridges and buildings that have transformed cities and even countries. This riveting series explores a hundred years of engineering the biggest, heaviest, tallest structures, and looks at what was supersized 10 or even 100 years ago.

[@darger3]

Ditto. You’re probably already asleep.

[@ronnestman4696]

Same

[@omark4285]

Dude me too!!! I literally put these on just to fall asleep lol

[@stephensamson6872]

Same

[@blakena4907]

About to be asleep. These are just the most peaceful and gentle vids to fall asleep too.

[@MrPainterSC]

I love super structures and mega projects nothing more fascinating! Awesomeness

[@mingming9604]

16:38 "...Nimitz nearly a kilometer long" ....lol someone tells him it's not anywhere even close to half a kilometer long.....

[@edinaldopereira2285]

lol a km long? OMG

[@omark4285]

Amazing engineering to say the very least

[@broccolirob5026]

BUFF’s nickname is up for interpretation

[@majordadass7261]

When Spark says it’s the biggest, it’s guaranteed it’s not.

[@factsdonthavefeelingsbeawa2953]

1:01 - 1:03 "That's what she said!" 🤜🤛🤣😅🤣😅

[@jesaymoongo9112]

Keep give us such types of shows.

[@kailashsingh9737]

Very beautiful sweet video

[@speakthetruth110]

Question: How Humans built the biggest warships ? Answer: Not found in this video.

[@RJM1011]

It's NO good saying the B29 is all better than the Lancaster when it was nearly the Lancaster bomber that had to drop the atom bombs on Japan in WW2 because the B29 was no good to do it until it was sorted out to do so ! I only found this out thanks to Mr Felton !

[@rayjames6096]

That report from Felton is made up, the Lancaster didn't have the range from any potential island takeoff point and was never seriously considered, another content maker did a video addressing Feltons claims and methodically took apart his false story...Felton was blatantly lying.

[@graciegough57]

Wonderful! 🏆🙂🙏🏼

[@MisteriosGloriosos922]

wonderful!!. Love this video!!!

[@paulsuprono7225]

BUFF has been operational before I entered grade school . . . it appears it remain defender of our skies, after my retirement into an 'old folks home' ! 🤗🇺🇸

[@elliottnolasco8021]

So awesome always learn so much

[@celestialmedia2280]

J.Robert Oppenheimer quoted from bhagavatGita "I have become death destroyer of worlds" If only he had understood Vasudevakutumba world as one family something might have changed

[@akshay9757]

Do videos more about warships it's nice

[@maheshpatel3738]

Superb documentry very informable

[@fuzzresponder2225]

Speak softly and carry a big stick! 👍us 💪

[@dallasarnold8615]

Great video, but I am surprised cargo and combat helicopters were not at least mentioned.

[@06racing]

Congrats on 1 million subs.

[@christhevancura9113]

I saw a AN 124 fly over my house on the way to Fort Worth Alliance airport a few years back ..I could hear those turbines coming, I knew it was nothing American, abruptly I went outside and there it was, about 200 meters over top of me ..Impressive, to say the least..

[@omarsharriff9161]

There's is only one Super Air Craft carrier in the world and that was the Americans carriers .

[@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13]

The last F in BUFF doesn't traditionally stand for fellow... Different F word

[@06racing]

The backing track for the Ohio Class subs jams.

[@lknanml]

Love the A10. A few flew over our base in Iraq now and again. That's the sound of someone about to be burped out of this world......

[@hishams89]

our planet definetely needs such shit for sure

[@alexribeiro9865]

bom dia amigos sucesso em todas suas micoes

[@Agent77X]

Gerald L. Ford class bigger then the old Nimitz’s! Both are powered by nuclear reactors! Ford has of course, more modern design.

[@Husky_Passion]

Funny how you only cite US vehicules, as of others wouldn't have some.

[@Pretermit_Sound]

What? There were Soviet/Russian aircraft, a French aircraft carrier, etc. what video were you watching?

[@CatDad01]

The largest sub was the typhoon... And the quietest was the sea wolf...

[@tilethio]

The Ohio class submarines are considered to be the most powerful machines ever created by humans. However, in terms of size, the Russian "Typhoon" class submarines are the largest and most impressive, boasting a swimming pool and a formidable arsenal of 20 R-39 missiles, each carrying 10 warheads capable of multiple re-entry. These submarines are highly complex and possess destructive power capable of wiping out the entire Earth. They are undoubtedly the most powerful machines ever created by mankind since the discovery of fire.

[@marvinmahehu1848]

I wonder are bombers still a viable weapons deployment system? In the era of smart long range bombs to modern interceptor aircraft, is it not a waste of money and manpower to keep them on. I could be wrong.

[@felixcat9318]

Had the monies spent devising ever greater means of inflicting death and destruction on other people been spent on health, education, medical care and infrastructure, transport, roads, etc, the world would be a far better place.

[@k.a.p.x3642]

well, a lot of the things that we have today came from the military and war innovations. it's messed up but true.

[@bearvassar6690]

Look up the biggest aircraft carrier size ship built by ancient Egyptians

[@555_Kochi_STi]

Is he related to Enrico Palazzo?

[@tklube308]

The TU-160, looks amazingly similar to the B-1. Wonder why that could be.

[@jumperman1962]

Semper Fi, Copied…

[@maxsjoberg788]

Russians and Chinese can't design their own shit so they just copy ours

[@edinaldopereira2285]

It is said that a country is powerful due to the quantity of aircraft carrier it has.

[@markbrisec3972]

I was glad to hear that the French Navy decided to reverse their decision and build the new aircraft carrier to replace Charles DeGaule. But there's a glaring hole in our allies' capability that needs to be addressed soon. I'm referring to a neglect to address the lack of a modern anti ship missile in an inventory of France and GB. There's a program of record that's been around for over 7 years, that plans to develop a hypersonic anti ship/land attack cruise missile called Perseus, to replace the Exocet, Harpoon, SCALP and Tomahawk . But the lack of money and political will resulted in a delay that will see this missile becoming operational in Anglo-French Navies in 2030s. That's almost 20 years from the start of the program to it's initial operational deployment. 20 years to develop a new missile?? That's abysmal. Hopefully the impending Russian threat will shake up our European allies (especially Germany) and convince them to put the development of the missile on a fast track, as a crucial military capability that's badly needed. Pentagon realized this 7 years ago and fastly developed stop gap measures with the LRASM, NSM, maritime Tomahawk and SM-6, while developing a true next gen hypersonic anti ship missile.

สวัดดีคับ

[@Trigger200284]

As opposed to what? Antelopes? Aliens?

[@wingsoffire-8909]

why are they using M3 grant/lee footage in the M4 sherman part

[@clubprojects6923]

A10 is not accurate. The gun shakes the plane, the bullets go everywhere. Like a loosely held machine gun.

[@awparran09]

So what should I comment on?

[@rickywhite6412]

Bigger, Faster, and peace on earth is a much better solution. Humanity's ability to do horrible things to fellow humans is nothing more than human termination...

[@Alex2011410136]

huh? isn't Typhoon Class submarine is the largest in the world? (genuinely asking)

[@colinobrien3806]

why not show the antanov 225 its way bigger ?

[@Mogazor]

These kind of videos are interesting and really cool, but the title of the video is highly misleading :(

[@fama6240]

ยุทธนาวีปฏิบัติการสากลขอบคุณสำหรับรีวิว สวัสดี

[@adityareddyavula4270]

Few things missed: 1. Biggest battleship 2. Typhoon Class submarine is deadlier than Ohio class 3. SS-18 ICBM 4. Tsar Bomba biggest thermonuclear bomb

[@tallwalls76]

Nobody really gives a shit. If any of that crap gets used the only thing walking will be cockroaches.

[@rayjames6096]

Typhoon class carries 20 ICBMs, Ohio class carries 24 ICBMs.

[@whothefoxcares]

when kids with adhd grow up, they make so much stuff that the universe keeps expanding!

[@billybobwombat2231]

Now tanks are being taken out by cheap small drones

[@ErrantChordier]

This is riddled with number/graph mistakes. A Tu-160 has a top speed of "2,200 kilometers". Not per hour. An altitude of "9,708 metres", why so precise, is it 9,709 with a skinnier crew? Is it lower than the An-124's ceiling of "up to 10,000 metres"? The Tu-160 is 13.1m tall and the Mars is 12m, but the bigger An-124 is only 4.3m? (probably tail vs fuselage) The Mars at 36m- twice the length of a bowling lane, so it shows lanes side by side? A 332m aircraft carrier "nearly a kilometer long"? How do I conceptualize the loudness of 8 million car alarms? The B-52 has a range of *"over* 25,000 km", which the graphic shows as "

[@alexribeiro9865]

brazil💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

[@danarabi9038]

They put A-10 in weapon not in air 🤣

[@johnnywindsor183]

Ohio class go in excess of 25 kts and this is very 🇺🇸sided like

[@aaronseet2738]

"How Humans Built The Biggest Warships" * B-52 Titling is such a difficult profession.

[@bobvines00]

Interesting video, but the title is absolutely & completely misleading, therefore a thumbs-down. :(

[@marcocambray7725]

Honestly idk what I watched

[@gino7444]

Take the ever present crap background "music" out and you have a top documentary.

[@1337flite]

This "docco" is really poor on facts - the American guy talking about armoured vehicles is confused between armanent and arnour. They are talking about Strykers but showinf BTRs, they are making simple mistakes betwen feet and meters when talking about ships - Nimitz class are about 1/3 of 1km long 3 feet to the meter (approx) . Its kinda shit. Muppets.

[@rahabhlal]

Friendly nuclear war 😂😂😂😂

[@luisfernando-mm3jt]

Militar propaganda ??

[@apex_blue]

I haven’t watched it but since it’s spark I say no

[@miketysonjr7144]

They copied the b1 boomer

[@lucamangoperson9560]

Fun fact: nobody has watched the whole thing

[@utdhar]

proved ya wrong 😝😝

[@OmniGuy]

Oh huh!

[@anicetomaldonado]

I agree, not much carrier coverage. It's more like a smorgasbord of every weapon America has

[@MrPainterSC]

I love super structures and mega projects nothing more fascinating! Awesomeness
