@aetherisx: kuTo connect the UK and France, two teams started digging from opposite sides of the ocean, aiming blindly at each other under millions of tons of crushing seawater. The stakes were impossibly high—if their math or laser guidance was off by just a fraction of a degree, they would completely miss each other, creating two useless, multi-billion-dollar dead ends beneath the sea. Against all odds, they successfully broke through and shook hands 130 feet below the ocean floor in 1990. But that victory left them with a truly bizarre problem: what do you do with a massive, 1,000-ton Tunnel Boring Machine that is too big to reverse out? Engineers came up with a wild solution—they literally ordered the machine to dig its own grave, buried it alive permanently beneath the rail line, and paved right over it. It is still down there today! 🤯 How they built the Channel Tunnel, Chunnel engineering challenge, tunnel boring machine buried alive, digging under the English Channel, subsea engineering marvels, history shorts. #physics #engineering #ChannelTunnel#DidYouKnow #uk #france

Shit Talking Granny :
The Chunnel was completed in 1990 NOT 1890.

In 1890? Really the channel tunnel was built in Victorian times? That’s news to me

So we can build a billion dollar machine and tunnel across the earth, but it doesn't have reverse. What a waste.

So all this satellite navigation all happened in 1890? Ok

High tech satellite data in 1890? Don’t think they had that back then

1890 didn't have satellite I thought we made the moon in 1969 and they called us on a rotary phone ?? how has this worked

he accidentally said **1890** in the video. The correct year is **1980**. he accidentally swapped the **8** and **9**. Thanks to everyone who pointed it out! 🙌
