never expected this channel to talk about the city I lived in my Childhood, Macapá, like Santarem it is also only accessible by water or air, there are no roads out, it is like living in a really giant island, without the natural disasters, it rains contantly and it is pretty windy, but because of the difficulty of access, some places seem to be frozen in time, I still visit the city and it is interesting to see really old buildings that I used to see when I were a kid close to brand new ones.
@@pollypockets508 ty, another thing I would like to add, is that it is possible to reach the city via roads, at some points, the roads intersect with the river and car ferry boats transport all types of automobiles to the the other side, this process can occur 2 to 3 times depending where u are going, and altough u have to pay a toll to cross, some of these checkpoints can also be used as a resting place since the area around the river have places to park ur car, eat and sometimes sleep because the ferry service is not 24hrs, so if u arrive late u have to either return from where u came or wait until it opens again, so some checkpoints also have something akin to a motel in the USA, where u pay to spend just the night
I am from Brazil. It is NOT a mystery why the Amazon River has no bridges. The Amazon has no bridges, because the Amazon Basin has no roads. There is a single dirt road with the grandiose name Rodovia Trans-Amazônica, which runs east to west, i.e. parallel to the river. During the rainy season, it turns into a mud quagmire. Again: no bridges, because there are NO roads.
That's what the narrator said towards the end of the video. I didn't consider it a mystery because of that. Took a long time to get there, but he eventually did.
@@BeAmazed I'm curious, is be amazed a team of people or just a few friends that love to spit out awesome videos for everyone, I know there are multiple narrators but is there anyone else behind the scenes we should know about too?

This channel has gotten so much better! Your narration is engaging and the little side stories are superb at tapping into our natural curiosity. Thank you keep it up
I felt sure that it was because of the rainy season that the river is continuously changing. Did learn something new . The giant acres of plant matter creating islands that sink and then re-appear. Excellent video thank you for sharing
The best part of this video is the guy running from the river wave coming at him. He is so lucky the ground didn't give out from under him. Areas like that are filled with quicksand spots and you will be swallowed up if you're careful.
Manaus is an ocean port 900 miles from the ocean. When I was there, I could only see the tops of the buildings on the other side. During the wet season the width can be 30 miles.
Last year, during the election period in Brazil the current president Lula tried to say the former president Bolsonaro had polluted the river near Santarém city and because of that the water was brown. Strangely enough, many people actually believed him, except for anyone who had studied about different densities and people that, like me, were born in that city and have been seeing with what we call "Encontro das águas" ever since they were toddlers, the polluted river is actually the place where the Tapajós river and the Amazon river meet, because they have different densities you can always see where one ends and the other begins
Here from Guyana 🇬🇾 n yes we're connected to the Amazon as well Mother nature is amazing The guy running from the waves had me 😅😅😅😅😅 There's also Pink River Dolphins in the Amazon
Connected by a road from Lethem, Guyana to Boa Vista, Brazil. Additionally, some of the world's most intrepid surfers travel to the mouth of the Amazon River, to surf the waves mentioned here. Such became popular after satellite pictures revealed the existence of the phenomenon of the waves occurring twice annually.
FYI: Pittsburgh Pennsylvania USA sees a "Meeting of the Waters" in the spring when the Muddy Monongahela meets the cleaner Allegheny to form the Ohio River at Pittsburgh's Point. I have observed this many times during my lifetime in Da "Burgh. I've also been fortunate enough to witness the Amazon "Meeting" in Manaus some years ago when I rode a cruise ship up the Amazon from the Atlantic Ocean to Manaus. Your channel is great! One of my favorites!
I have to say, the more dangerous creatures may lurk in a river, the better the idea of a bridge sounds. That might just be me, though. Others might prefer a boat for their encounter with a Titanoboa.
@@mb8787 Touche! OK, new plan. We tunnel under it. I'm not getting in one of those boats, and I'm almost sure the Titanoboa can't burrow. Back-up plan: I just stay way clear of the Amazon. In fact, that might be cheaper and safer. It's also not much of an inconvenience. I'm already staying way clear of Australia, and it's easy peasy.
How crazy would it be to have a massive bridge built and one day you go to drive across and see the giant Titanaboa wrapped around the bridge and hanging off of it sunning itself?
I'd rather NOT encounter one at all, TYSVM !!!! LOL !!!! If THAT's NOT an image for absolute NIGHT TERRORS, I don't know what IS. Geez !!! And, I thought there were too many snakes right here, where I am, TYSVM !!! I live in front of a lake that's sometimes full and sometimes mostly dry. The lake has become part of the local Botanical Gardens, from just down the road. A few years ago, they built a nursing home, at the side of the "Main Drag" out front. The year B4 Hurricane Irma came through, the "Authorities" sent in a "TEAM" of "snake handlers" into the 1-2 year old nursing home, and pulled out 55 WATER MOCCASINS from INSIDE AND AROUND the Nursing Home, and, another 40 from this neighborhood BEHIND the nursing home but IN FRONT of the lake...IN ONE WEEKEND !!!! 😳😳😳 MOCCASINS are very aggressive AND VERY POISONOUS. THE NEURO-TOXINS they possess are very powerful.
7:44 what they should do for BR 319 is build one of the floating roads so during the wet season, it just fucking float. It would be a lot cheaper than just building a low lying bridge across the whole damn span and easier to maintain if it gets damaged, you just replace the part.
If you go from Cusco westward, to the coast of Peru, you have to cross Rio Apumirac (generally considered Amazon's headstream) and some other headwater streams; you cross them by bridge, and not by some other means... the most famous bridge over Rio Apumirac is the Incan "Q'iswa Chaka" close to Huinchiri.
You don't need a bridge when there are no major roads and most of the local population uses boats. On another hand, I am Brazilian and I haven never been anywhere near the Amazon forest. It's my dream to visit there someday. Hopefully soon.
I was in Laticha,Columbia in the 80's. I was told that the dirt roads only went out about 30k from the city although there were plenty of vehicles mostly vw's and buggies. The river was about 2 miles across and moving very fast and deep.
I love your videos I like your videos I’m subscribe. Be amazed your videos really are the best I love your videos ❤❤❤❤😊 be amazed you’re the best 😊😊❤❤❤❤😊
You mentioned how the bridge is 2.2 miles, and that can be difficult, but what about how here in Louisiana we have the Lake Ponchartrain Causeway, a 23.8 mile bridge. Wouldn’t that be larger than any bridge crossing the Amazon?
Don’t forget our other big bridge in Louisiana. The Atchafalaya Basin Bridge comin in at 18.2 miles. Our main roads may suck but we could conquer the amazon river for sure with our bridge work 😂
The amazon river areas has different situation, they do get tidal pores/tidal waves more often in an unpredictable time although its really short span of miles compare to US infrastructure built, it would be more costly for maintenance on infrastructures there, also consider US has more money to maintain bridges here compare to amazon river chains of different countries. Yes, water ways is the best way to connect different places/countries in amazon area aside from airplanes. Thanks for the info and the comments I’ve learnt more about geographies of amazon areas. HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYONE!
@@bersabeharris4931 that makes sense. I think the biggest challenge with the Lake Ponchartrain Causeway is simply weather resistance. It connects Mandeville to Metairie, a quick look at a map will show proximity to New Orleans, hint, I work in Metairie, from where I work there are areas where I can look out a window and see New Orleans. Anyone who remembers Katrina, or more recently Ida, knows this area can see some extreme weather, but I think the bridge is built to withstand it.
Look at how long giant rays went undiscovered. And that was in a more densely populated area. If something that large can hide in plain sight, why couldn't a Titanoboa be hiding out there somewhere? There's also the Coelacanth that turned out not to be so extinct either.
History channel says the Megalodon probably ate most of the giant squid while the aliens disguised as Bigfoot watched from the portals they open over the various 'mystery' ranches around the US like Skinwalker and Bradshaw, while effecting the various magnetic fields from the various 'triangles' located around the world. They call it History channel because the point is to get as high as possible while you watch it and make your brain cells history. At that point you have become a History channel writer.
I don't have the guts and body for the Amazon. Anacondas (and probably titanoboas), piranhas, giant fish, electric eels, poisonous toads and stingrays, goliath spiders, The Green Inferno movie (although I enjoyed it), etc etc. 😳 Yeah, no. Admiring it from afar through UA-cam and movies is enough for me. Big respect for the people who can live and even thrive there...brrrr...
I feel the need to say that I live in louisiana and we have a 23 mile bridge that I cross pretty frequently. Those other bridge lengths are rookie numbers lol
1:33 Everything I see says it delivers 55-58 million gallons per second into the Atlantic, not 44,000. That's nearly 17 billion metric tons per day, the same amount of freshwater used by New York City every 9 years. Nearly 100 miles out into the Atlantic you can still drink the water.
there are permanent walkways through the trees that are over 50 feet above ground, so that when the amazon floods every year, people can still get around.
Most of the arguments I'm hearing are valid in the lower end of the river - the upper part likely has less water flow, less width, less swimming islands, no tidal bores, etc. (There are also no bridges over the lower ~100 km of the river Elbe in Germany, north-west of Hamburg.) You don't necessarily _need_ a road for constructing a bridge (you can bring the construction material and crew by ship), but there is _no point_ in a bridge when there is no road on both sides of it.
I just found out about the uncontacted tribes in brazil & peru ... I wouldn't be surprised if there is more !! Those forests are massive beyond comprehension 🖤

How does anyone get from the section of the country north of the river to the south and vice versa? Airplanes?
@Kurt Snyder did you not pay attention? A large portion use boats over airplanes. Also if you have a car you load it onto the Ferry and cross.

6:02 this also means that there doesn't NEED to be any bridges either. I imagine the banks would also be very unstable.
