Japanese Started Pouring Tons of Concrete in the Middle of the Ocean, And That's Why

[@lorettaross2007]

Good morning, Steve! There`s a lot of us drinking coffee with you! Great information, thank you!

[@realandsurreal]

Continuously amazed at the quality content you keep cranking out. Well written, well researched, and well presented. Keep up the great work, kudos to you and your staff.

[@ericm6738]

The absolute best channel on KZbin.

Why hasn't anyone considered an anchored floating platform. We can make ships that are 1000's if not millions of tones in weight so why not a platform.

[@davearnold1883]

that is absolutely a brilliant idea and I think there is great potential that that could work. just think about oil rigs way out in the ocean. all of those are floating and anchored to the bottom. you could use the same technique and or not have the platform work in high winds and when there's storms

[@johnd5805]

Only crazy people build their house or airports on sand.

[@S0me0ne_S0meWhere_SaysHi]

@davearnold1883 I'm not sure what oil platforms use to keep buoyancy but if it's air chambers then I don't think that's good enough for long term stability. I'd suggest 'something like' expanding foam chambers which will not fail if they are punctured.

[@fat_basturd5345]

This post is funny.😂

[@Jordy_potato]

It's more or less a good idea, but if you think about it, most ships only have a life span of around 30-50 years because of the salt water itself. Therefore, it's better to fight natural elements with other natural elements. Steel is not a natural element, so its struggles against salt water, so the idea was most likely thought about, but it's not reliable for long term use

This is why when when you’re undertaking massive civil engineering projects, you overbuild by a factor of at least 10. And don’t give me any BS about funding. Huge projects have massive overruns and the only way you are ever going to be able to stay relevant at 5 to 10 years after end of the project is to massively overbuild. If something is going to take 10 years to build, then you need to look 100 years in the future and plan for that.

[@wassum100]

Overbuilding infrastructure is definitely the thing to do!

[@wassum100]

Couldn’t have put it better

I’m drinking my cup of ☕️ wit you this time

[@sjoel3982]

In Canada, billions of tons of snow are dumped into rivers. The results shocked the world because the streets are clean.

So when are we going to have that nice hot cup of coffee ☕😋 and I will be busting out the percolator she came out 1968 and still percolating my coffee ☕ best tasting coffee ever comes from that machine 🤤 18 cups I got a bigger one to 24 cups got both of them from my grandma I started drinking coffee when I was a kid drinking right out of the same machine that I got now😮

[@ZoonCrypticon]

@23:00 At least the Japanese government is looking after its people, as they provide emergency rations and equipment for them in case of a catastrophe. This doesn´t hold true for other highly developed countries, as e.g. in Central Europe.

[@injunsun]

And then there's over here in America, where we have an orange shitgibbon rampaging, costing us a fortune, while embarrassing us who did not vote for it. He is trying to halt all social programs. We are going in reverse. I admire Japan for stepping up for disaster prep.

[@jeanettejovanoski108]

I really enjoy this channel

[@WinterFlowerchild]

They took out three whole mountains to make the airport, so it better be worth it.

[@GERARDOLAGUNES1]

Great job

[@Rick.Fleischer]

"now prepared for any surprise from nature"? Not bloody likely.

[@hiddentruth1982]

Bad thing is the more weight you put on it to raise it up the more it sinks.

[@mike9500]

why are you sporting an fbi hat on your desk?

It's for his other channel... and it's part of the reason why he stays anonymous

It says Bi, you are assuming the "F".

[@Donkeyearsa]

What they could do is to demolish the entire airport raise the island ten meters and build a new airport.

I have watched a couple dozen of your videos now, and just noticed I haven't subbed. That has been remedied.

Wasting resources to build an airport in the ocean? What could possibly go wrong? lol If they had paid citizens to vacate space, and create the airport where airports should be, ON LAND, wouldn't it be cheaper, much much cheaper?

[@לךתזדיין-פ1ת]

I feel embarrassed when I know my Japanese daughter in law has to use the Charlotte Douglass airport. Those baggage handlers and all service personnel at the airport don't care about anything. Japan is such a polite and clean country

Vancouver Canada airport is similar, from what here - their continuity plan identifies a plethora of risks.

turn it into a park eventually

Love your coffee breaks. And adore your slurps. Your videos are well informed therefore you always do so much investigating . Do you have time for a life away from videos ? I sure hope so. Just wanted to say THANKS FOR BEING THERE FOR ME ❤

umm... i saw a thing where a guy made a plastic island out of bottles to live on. Emptied them, wrapped the up in big bundles, built atop them. so... maybe we should reconsider recycling AND SWITCH TO USING GLASS? EH? nah. that'd be nutz

[@Skyrem25]

Why it's the same title always diff country? What is this

[@marrow-zp7zt]

Do I remember this correctly: the land sank 1-2 m during the earthquake and tsunami 2011?

[@99Zforgetaboutit]

I hate your incomplete titles. "Middle of the ocean" Is a lie. "Manipulated" image shaking, especially during the flyover, during the earthquake discussion, is embarrassing. Although I generally enjoy the content, the above complaints are making it increasingly unlikely that I look inside.

These are very informative, and appreciated. But he has all these crazy, weird pictures on the tokens for his videos that have NOTHING to do with what he is talking about. Very disappointing, for what seems to be intelligent data.

Stop hiding your face, or leave your images out of the videos.
