Mega Builders

S06:E07 - Best Of

Mega Builders saw it all, from high steel workers threatened by runaway cables on highline towers at the Hoover Dam Bypass Bridge project in Colorado... to high tension cables snapping with the crack of a bullwhip on The Bangkok Mega Bridge. Had men been in its path, the cable would have cleanly cut them in two. Over six years, we watched our mega builders - quick thinking crews and engineers out at the end of the diving board - improvise mega fixes on the spot. They had to solve the problems that no one had anticipated. And if they weren’t cobbling together strategies to keep their projects from grinding to a halt, often they were dreaming up ways to kickstart them to life once they did. We’ll watch them sweat bullets again!
