“Skilled” laborers? It is grunt work that a deaf monkey could do blind folded. No thinking or education required. Minimum wage at best and if they complain or start to slack just have some immigrants come and replace them for less than half the pay. Management, the engineers, and the educated professionals should be receiving all the bonuses and praise. Not the simple minded rock movers.

The production value on this was simply amazing. I love the transitions between simulation and real-life. I also appreciate - as someone who's worked on oil drilling rigs and all sorts of heavy industrial areas - the mention of how hard the work is and the working condition for the crews. That part often gets left out of those videos, as they tend to focus more on the engineering and technical aspects of these projects. It's difficult to make someone who's never worked in those conditions appreciate exactly how loud, dirty, heavy, hard, dusty, and dangerous the work really is, day in, day out, from start to finish.

Haha, yup. Had to modify a quite expensive CNCed part for a one-off test system because I missed a screw and had to revise the design when the part was already in production. All I had on site were handtools so I did my best to get it right. I use my Sylvac Mikron to find the exact spot and mark it with a center punch. I measure and it's spot on. I grab the smallest drill bit they had in their tool box and drill a tiny pilot hole, measure, and it's spot on. Then I take a 2,5mm bit, drill a larger pilot hole, measure, and it's absolutely perfectly centered where it needs to be. So I take the 6,8mm bit, drill, measure and the hole is off by almost 3mm. Off into the trash the part goes. I went home early that day.

Fascinating engineering. It boggles my mind trying to comprehend the thousands of details they had to solve. What amazing machinery and crew to achieve this massive undertaking. Great job on the video, the animation and the narration. THANK YOU 👍

Like so many others have already mentioned it this was one hell of a great documentation. Way better then some "action" movies. Thanks a lot for that

Kudos to the whole team at Marti Group for both the hard engineering on tunneling and the extremely well done documentary 👏👏 Would watch any of your other engineering projects if documented that well !

32 minutes of very informative and mind boggling video, best 23 minutes I have spent. Congratulations to all concerned

It put a smile on my face to see them all so excited after finishing!

Seriously impressive for a corporate-produced video, it was both exciting and informative. Hats off to the engineers who drilled the tunnel and the production team!

Поражает воображение! Очень понравилось как снят фильм. Максимально реалистично, потрясающая 3D графика разрезов, закачки цемента, борьбы с осыпанием и пещерой! Очень интересно и познавательно. Огромная благодарность!
