When I was kid back in the early 80s, my family was stationed at Howard AFB from 80-84. I use to fish with my father at Gatun lake all the time. I use to see the ships passing through. Been to the Miraflores locks many times.
@@NoggleBaum at Miraflores locks, there is an observation building. I haven't been their in over 35 years, but it looks like they built a new one. I have watched ships start at the first locks of Miraflores and exit at the last lock to either go out to sea or head through to the other side. I remember it took an hour for the ship to go through, a little longer depending on the size. I saw the battleship New Jersey go through. That took tender loving care. There is just 1 foot clearance from aft to stern and keel. They were inching that ship through each gate. My mother's friends husband was a canal pilot. He said he hated going on subs. They don't stop and you can easily slip and fall off.
I always had this doubt as to why locks are needed in a canal...was searching for an answer for a very long time and now I got this recommendation all of a sudden
UA-cam algorithm works according to your preferences. Keep watching videos like this one and more videos about engineering and buildings will appear in your feed. Look for some science/history subjects in Google and UA-cam will recommend videos about those subjects. The algorithm only wants to please you. Teach it how to do it.
After observing two or three channel it was not clear to me how Ships enter & exit through Panama canal.Yor animation cleared me within seconds. Many thanks for your excellent efforts.
Finally felt cultured just now 😄 What an engineering marvel. It is absolute overwhelming embarrassment to admit that only now I understand clearly what the fuss after several decades 😅😥 Earlier, I couldn't care less eventhough I myself was librarian in high school with lots of resources to refer during that time about this canal😂😆
Really... Very best animation for immediate Absorption by the Brain... Wandering...How that Gaint Locks works but....It is really your animation that only worked very fast before PCA does their routine work.... Haaa... Haa... Ha. Nice.... My Dear Friend. You are honored for your simple yet powerful animation.
How is that? Tell me how much time unloading 5k to 20k containers in one side, and receiving them in the other side will take, time and money, vs 8-10 hour pass in the Panama Canal. We are talking weeks and millions of dollars in difference. PER CARGO SHIP.
I was in the Army and in 1993 I was stationed in Panama Ft Clayton next to the Canal, best Military assignment ever... I remember the phrase they had "y entonces" good people great food good fishing
Why are people in the comments so impressed by the mechanics of this? The lock mechanic has been known since 200 BC in ancient Greece, the Chinese did also use it, as well as medieval Europe.

England France and Germany failed to complete this canal because they were trying to make it a regular canal... through a bunch of mountains. America just built a bunch of "locks" which were unheard of at the time. Explained it as move water from one area to another until the level in that area matches the level in another until you get to the pacific by going OVER a mountain in a ship.
What are you on about!?! The Panama canal was built in 1881. The Oxford canal in the UK was built between 1774 & 1790 and I can assure you that it has locks.
Went through it East to West on the USS Whidbey Island when I was a Marine in '93. Pretty cool. I'm from Michigan and had seen the Soo Locs before from shore. They are similar to the Panama Canal's opperation. It was neat to experience it first hand.
It has fresh water, as it's the only source of potable water in Panama. Water don't mix because they are only putting fresh water into the ocean and not the other way around
What they need is 1 great big lock instead of all the small ones . See it on You tube . It's in Scotland , it's not that old . It's called "The Falkirk Wheel" . It's very intriguing , see how it works , it's a marvel of engineering . Those of you that see the Falkirk Wheel on You Tube most likely will be very happy .
@@da4127 The civil war in panama was already an issue between factions in panama. It was simply a decision of whether or not to back the government or the revolution.
that would be an extraordinary excavation project and would have been much more difficult. that also would have massively changed the natural landscape, because the elevated inland sea would have to be brought to sea level -- i.e. drained.
@@isleschild build a dam on each side, drain what’s in the middle, excavate, release the dam. No? Sure it would require a lot of effort and resources. But if the Dutch can turn a sea into a lake, why can’t panama? Lol

The maximum change in elevation is about 26m. This animation has been magnified 100x just for visual clarity here.
Why didn't they just dig 26 meters deeper...
Two lakes didn't agree with that.

So they push the ship up pushing a water down. Cool
Very simple explanation. Easy to understand. Congrats creator .
Simple. Just dig equal heights at Pacific and atlantic ocean and connect together. No barriers alterations required
Probably costlier, I also thought about this option

Maybe a silly question, but does the lake ever get too low? If so, what would they do then?
There's reservoirs and pumps
thanks

This explains a lot. I had wondered how they would keep salt water from mixing with fresh in canals, the elevation change makes it clear.
Interesting and informative. I can now visualize the process.👍

It has fresh water, as it's the only source of potable water in Panama.
Water don't mix because they are only putting fresh water into the ocean and not the other way around
