As a fellow engineer, I was listening to the 5 step process thinking “this doesn’t seem a robust system”…then the punchline happened and I physically groaned
-
I love when he explains his 5 Step Proposal, you can audibly hear him smiling. I mean when you offer such an efficient solution, who can blame him.
-
Imagine living in that city with a beautiful view of the 300 foot high pump dam in front of the ocean.
-
I'd actually watch a movie about a civil engineer stuck in a time loop, trying to save their city from a tsunami via taxpayer-funded infrastructure projects
-
RCE is so used to using the strongest shape he built it by accident. Wouldn't be surprised if he someday uses it in his real engineering job, goes through all the approval processes, and then notices his mistake
-
I feel like the first canal solution would have prevented total destruction and just left a flash flood in real life but the physics engine couldn’t handle it.
-
Used the P.E.N.I.S method to effectively plug my drainage pipe. Thanks RCE!
-
And now, for the Engineer's motto: "Looks good on paper, sucks in real life."
-
Not a particularly realistic tsunami, but it is interesting that the game's fluid model causes the water level at the shore to fall before the tsunami front arrives. That happens in real life as well - during the 2004 Indonesian tsunami a guy who had read about that behavior in Scientific American managed to get a bunch of people to high ground ahead of the tsunami, likely saving their lives.
-
I would love to hear all the engineering babble! Honestly I think if you did a channel around drainage engineering it would be interesting. Something like what Practical Engineering does. Or even a collaboration video.
-
"Imagine the carnage on that junction, that's going to be interesting seeing how they cope with that" ^ 90% sure this is a quote from whoever planned the roads near my current workplace.
-
Very interesting, but probably far cheaper to just evacuate the entire city and build a whole new one far away from the coast.
-
Put down the pipes first, then attach the pumps to them as you place them, don't have to connect them all individually after ;) (sorry, couldn't resist xD)
-
Matt, do you know the game "tidal tribes"? This is kinda the core game play of the game. You are the engineer or god, if you like, of some tribes and they are bombarded by floods, so you have to engineer the landscape to safe them and make them thrive. I think you would enjoy it and it would make for some good videos.

the queen doesnt wave anymore
-
This reminds me when I am at the beach and trying to stop the waves from hitting my castle
-
Man that Rick roll of a 5 step process was too good. Us fellow non-professional engineers were totally foolex until you got to strength.
-
Me building a sandcastle in the surf as a child basically did this lol
-
The name didn’t age well. The queen does not wave anymore
