    Which other construction projects have shrunk our world?
  • Your voice is honestly so damn pleasant. Perfect for National Geographic lol.
  • @sandiccc
    Always find your videos to be packed with fact, interesting tidbits and enjoyable imagery. You do an amazing job, thank you.
  • The first 18 seconds of this video. I thought these were miniature scale cities and airport 😂
  • For many of us, these B1M videos have shrunk our world more so than the magnificence of infrastructure or project delivery. So i nominate the B1M as one of the Projects that shrunk our world. INFORMATION, still the greatest currency in the world.

    Would love to see you guys do a more detailed video on undersea cables, their construction, layout & anchoring to sea-bed, to the construction of cable layer boats themselves etc, from the telegraph cables in the 1800's to modern day. Keep up the good work!
  • Anytime I open my YouTube and there's a new video from The B1M, I'm always delighted. Thank you for the great work!
  • @marcussheen
    I've always enjoyed this channel, but lately your videos have been absolutely top-tier.
  • @stachowi
    The best B1M video yet... love this channel, really loved this video.
  • @stijn4771
    Those graphical animations are so well done!
  • @Bakkeleien
    Watching B1M after smoking a spliff is just orgastic. The quality of these video's is just outstanding. Would be nice to see a video about the construction of the Maasvlakte 2 or major construction projects in sea ports around the world in general. Keep going guys!
  • @demven04
    Loudly applauding. Great video!
  • @helix5031
    To encapsulate all that knowledge and compress it into a single video is marvelous.
  • @trainticketboy
    Love the extremely high quality and professional vids you produce. You always strike the right balance between commentary and facts, it is highly enjoyable to watch.
  • @BjEddy1
    I was going to write a lengthy praise video, but decided to just add a "like" to all positive comments below , which will take time,, thanks for posting!!
  • Great video! Thank you for putting so much effort into your videos and making them so interesting!
