Ingenious Construction: The Gigantic Self-Sufficient Icebreaker | FD Engineering

[@BrianSmith-gp9xr]

Incredible what humans can acheive yet there are some who make weapons and war instead of greatness. This is greatness.

[@heinekenczech]

Those that did not make great weapons got conquered.

[@EvilCouncil]

Making an engineering documentairy and then using ancient and useless measurement systems never ceases to amaze me. At least mention the measurements in units the entire world uses and understands. Even the US doesn't use those units in engineering or science.

[@kushking949]

I am sorry you do not understand... Maybe you should go to school?

[@brentcorless2656]

Let’s stick with cubits, hands, knots and stones. Good enough for my great great great great grand parents.

[@mikeyalls]

It's the greatest thing that has ever been conceived or built. ~ The French are so modest.

[@joediverfl]

Are you serious???????

[@hillbillyfromtheswamp6223]

This is absolutely incredible!! The amount of pure intelligence thats been put into this ship is just mind blowing.

[@TheDavidlloydjones]

So uch went into the ship that there wasn't any left over for the KZbin video. "Waters of the South Pole"?? Gimme a break.

[@akilrl85]

Engines built in our factory at Vaasa Finland. I'm a design engineer in that company.

[@0ate5y]

Good job dude

[@robertsudano4304]

What about a drone instead of a helicopter?

[@7071t6]

need to make underwater drones which are also wireless, just think how deep you can go and also making it withstand the deepest oceans ,like pointing down in the water a radio frequency which the drone will pick up for its comms. 👍👍🦘🦘😎😎 Australians invented wi fi, but not really it was Nicola tesla who really invented radio waves which can control other things electrically operated, like his boat which people thought he was using his mind to control? 🦘🦘😎😎

[@robertsudano4304]

@ they have those. How do you think they pull up the black boxes from planes deep in the ocean after they crash?

[@ScottRBrooks]

I agree safer, cheaper and use less space. Maybe they sell rides??

[@ScottRBrooks]

@@7071t6wi-fi is not an invention it’s a standard and John O’Sullivan and his team (I assume that’s who you are talking about. ) was one of thousands of people that contributed to that standard.

[@MidnightVisions]

It doesn't have a bubble system to break up the ice?

[@surfshop7552]

Yeah like the Russian ship Yamal

[@OVTraveller]

As a recreational traveller, I want the captain to explain how his icebreaker performs in stormy weather. As I have experienced the Drake Passage on an expedition ship ( Silversea Explorer) with my sea legs fully operational, how will his vessel perform in 10 metre waves in the open waters of the North Atlantic or the Drake passage. His assurance will determine my future bookings ex Melbourne, Australia, Southern Hemisphere.

[@scottpope514]

Definitely want to book a trip. Hope they have English-speaking staff.

[@darticulate8751]

Viva La France ! oink oink ! Well done !

[@gabrielcatani9317]

La verdad que el barco es una maravilla.

[@blackspinnaker6643]

Wonder what a ship like that would cost ??

[@benoitbergeron8858]

Charlie Sheen is a captain

[@Flea-Flicker]

Dude! You got tiger blood, you are winning!

[@sheepdog1102]

I would love to work on this ship in any capacity!😊

[@Drew_TheRoadLessTraveled]

A French speaking crew that speaks perfect English. Truly praise worthy for Not using AI. This is how ALL documentaries should be. A+++

[@ericsandstrom3520]

You should try to make the azimuts propeller turning forwards....

[@surfshop7552]

It's not the only ship, the Russians did it and are doing it since way back. The Russian ship Yamal use air bubbles to break up ice more efficiently

[@kabtvro]

From $6K to $73K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.

[@FrolDog-js4qj]

VENTURING into the trading world without the help of a profesionals, trading and expecting profit is like turning water into wine you would need a miracle.

[@FavourMamahdhe]

Very engaging right from the beginning These are tough and frankly I appreciate how you discuss global finances in such a delicate way. Business and investment

[@KyagahsGssg]

Experted Ann Marie strunk was my hope during the 'bear summer' last year. I did so many mistakes but also learned so much from it, and of course from Maria strunk.

[@GggatsGggss]

Just sold a property in Alaska and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying it's ripe but Is this a time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $450k gains within months, I'm really just confused at this point.

[@Michaelwhites]

The fact that I got to learn and earn from her program is everything to me think about it, it's a win-win for both ways.

[@howardroemer2889]

You lost me at salt water freezing at -28F. How about +28F?

[@dankinnaird8702]

Captain charlie sheen 😅 smashing the white stuff

[@GaryAnderson-hl8ik]

What do the cabins look like? How's the food? Are they as impressive as the rest of it?

[@akilrl85]

Who cares.... 42 megawatts :)

[@nec3f]

14:21 those props are spinning the wrong way.

[@MICHAELMEREDITHSR]

The 🇲🇫french🇲🇫 huh? *Good* job folks! 🙏🦉

[@palladen1933]

Coool 😊

[@jamesadams893]

At 6:10 they show -28.5 F temp when sea ice forms, that seems a little on the cold side for that to occur.

[@rdallas81]

Salt water freezes at a lower temperature than water alone- Probably the salt content varies the freezing point of the wa wa.

[@jamesadams893]

@@rdallas81 I was being sarcastic but negative 28.5 is way too low . Obviously a typo

[@J-Justice666]

You are correct.. The negative symbol should not be there.

[@Xinyouting]

The other day, a polar bear gave me a call. He sounded quite frustrated and said, “You won’t believe this, but a big ship sliced right through my daily work route on the ice!” Apparently, he had been trying to make his way across for five days, but the ice still too thin to hold it together, and kept breaking apart. It seems even polar bears aren’t immune to the troubles of modern tourism! He sighed and mentioned that now he’d have to start looking for a detour or other job. “It’s hard enough finding food, and now this! Can’t they see the ice is our highway?”

[@Mark-sj7lv]

I've seen hydroplanes breaking ice. Would that not be even more efficient than this type of icebreaker? Or is this more a cruise ship/icebreaker than just an icebreaker?

[@Flea-Flicker]

50:25 - All waste is taken off board on land when they arrive at port... to be thrown in the ocean in another place?

[@johnmcgovern3806]

Whats wrong with you tube these days, so many inaccuracies.

[@mrxmry3264]

This is a french ship, right? So whats up with all those banana units (Fahrenheit, feet,...)? In france they use the the metric system.

[@tireballastserviceofflorid7771]

Maybe the film was meant to be shown not in France. Last i checked they don't speak English either.

[@dennistokarsky1176]

Ever heard of Celsius? My God, so lame.

[@Hyperious_in_the_air]

this is the only Polar Class II icebreaker on earth in civilian service, not even the Russian nuclear icebreakers can get through ice this thick. Russian nuke boats are all PCIII (thinner ice). Only the USCG Polar class icebreakers can operate in ice this thick.

[@SerjLevonyuk]

Where did you find exact Polar Class of Russian icebreakers?

[@paulcandiago9339]

Merci fora real documentary, it makes me wish for a polar e voyage... but after something inside me remind my dreaming that i suffer from mal di mare=sea sickness...

[@Redsson56]

If not the computer graphics person, some kind of editor should have known sea water freezes at 28.8F not -28.8F which is the equivalent of -33.78 C. Missing by a country mile reduces the video’s credibility.

[@I-DIG-IT-CT]

The most advanced ship ever made, ever. It can handle AMYTHING. except the big stuff, only Russian ships do that. 😂

[@KArtoaT]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@BaldHeadedManc]

I can't believe they didn't just surrender to the ice!

[@joediverfl]

LOL LOL LOL LOL~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@KevinN-df8eo]

Why does the narrator and incidental music have to be so damn overly dramatic?? I can see what is going on and being said, I wanted to look at this for its ingenious construction not as an overwrought melodrama. Grow up.

[@swampy1234]

Americans

[@BrianSmith-gp9xr]

What is the price to be a passenger. ?

[@cavallis9140]

How much is one

[@TheDraiden]

I call BS on 1 spot. The DAILY water usage. There is no way 400 people are using 50 tons of water daily for just drinking water. Even if people drank their entire body weight in water on a daily basis I don't think you would reach 50 tons lol.

[@SuperEsybeltran]

I hope they don't drive over the edge

[@hilaryhenderson1443]

I find it strange that America hasn't gotten into icebreakers. Can we get Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos to get interested; I would opt for a cruise on an ice breaker before I would ride a rocket.

[@TheDavidlloydjones]

The waters of "both the South and North Poles"?? Can somebody maybe break it to these folks gently that the South Pole is hundreds of miles inland and several hundred feet above sea level? The only "waters" there ar the ones you get by thawing snow, like for your tea maybe.

[@DSMITH-cz7xi]

So it pays for itself in 25yrs...lol

[@vevenaneathna]

its a chevy volt

[@anythingwithgkc]

Enginnering Marval . 😳😳😳

[@chrisbrummel7160]

I thought this ship was nuclear?

[@writerconsidered]

As advanced as it is it seems to be a fair weather ship. But it seems to be a ship 50 years too late. A maximum icebreaker in a world of thinning ice. 30 to 40 years from now it will be obsolete. I did like the engineering of the infrastructure on board. A lot of fail safes. It clearly wasn't built by Americans. Who slap things together without a second thought, unless the second thought is how to save money.

[@nexttonic6459]

LoL =) Russian Nuclear Ice breakers.. Made in Finland :P

[@tireballastserviceofflorid7771]

Lots of bragging and lots of cartoons. Not a lot else.

[@joediverfl]

Viva La France 🤣

[@cullendarling7916]

The propellers boring through 49 ft of ice!?!? I keep waiting for them to say "April fools!"

[@mushmouth]

If they were smart it would be powered by a nuclear reactor

[@joediverfl]

NAH, they are far to smart for that. 🤣

[@YouTubeiscorrupt907]

Ice breaking for ship's is such a remedial issue to resolve. Y'all trying to hard,such a waste of resources and money

Russians did this in the 1950s

[@J-Justice666]

Zero "Construction" in this video. Marginally informative.. There is nothing new about ships using LNG for fuel, azipods, electric motors and batteries for propulsion. The design of the LNG storage tanks was pretty cool, tho. With the overly dramatic narration and music, you'd think something historical was about to happen. Nope. Two stars.

[@outlawtrux]

This is old Russian design nothing new.

[@ramonjr.deluna9584]

Garbage..russian icebreaker can break 10ft of ice..without reversing..

How about nuclear

wow talking about the arctic north ice, then saying its going to Antarctica which is the south pole? 🦘🦘👌👌👍👍✌✌
