Also in the US... I must clean out my garage, basement, and shed. Estimated completion date: 2029.
now thats a mega project
Damn bro, that's some billion dollars and worth project!
I think you will not have enough funding for it.. this project might not be a reality due to geopolitics
I hate rich show offs..a Garage and a Shed...

I find it crazy that it's cheaper for the new Shinkansen to be mostly underground. Normally that is far more expensive.
I initially thought the new Sydney tower was a little presumptuous in being called a mega project, but with no two rooms being alike, and that facade, it'll be a logistical and design nightmare!
I think of the selection, ITER is definitely my favourite and hope that it accomplishes its goals and runs to schedule so that the next step (DEMO) will prove its worth.
Very nice video, some great, huge projects. Top notch 👌🏼
Similar to the pinnacle in London that never got built, will face similar recession issues and be redesigned
Maybe because they don't need to buy the land since the route is mostly over or under remote area
ITER is definitely the most badass project among these indeed

Great work B1M as always. The Melbourne green spine development was approved just a few days ago and that project is worth a shoutout.

Macedonia - Corruption and selling our identity
NSW (Australian State) has more gaming machines per capita than nearly anywhere else in the world. Nevertheless the casino is arguably what's enabling development of the entire Barangaroo precinct.
That is technically not in France as the nuclear reactor is said to come under UN judistriction.
France is just the location of the thermonuclear reactor. The participants include Russia, USA and many more countries. We all need it to succeed.
Hey, if it worked for Singapore, it can work for you too.
Can you make a specific video about the Shinkansen project? It deserves one of it’s own.
Agreed, we're on it 👍

We Ethiopians might fight each other but we are always Ethiopians. And we will prevail 😌፣ ኢትዬጵያ ሃገሬ።
I don't know much about your country but would like to learn, are you still fighting within after Eritrea got independent?
Every project mentioned in this video deserves a full video of its own.
ITER is the most promising project... gives me goosebumps having the power to control plasma and harness unlimited energy
Funnily enough, we BM1 viewers might look back at this video and wonder why no one was commenting about the 'miracle project'.
Dressed as a shadow Tesla had a better idea
ITER will come out as a joke. one year delay each year. after the pandemic, I'm not sure if it can be operational,ever. what's been finished in China can't be installed cuz there's nothing to install on. 2025 ain't gonna happen.
The most promising? It's a theoretical physics test
Honestly, we should be more invested in thorium-salt reactors. Going after self-sustaining fusion right now is possible, but it’s about as feasible as jumping the gun to mars, before the moon.
This is easily one of the finest channels on UA-cam. The production quality is amazing. Keep up the great work!
Love your channel. So factual, no filler. Great photography. I could tolerate even more technical explanations.
Am gald Ethiopia is on the good list for a change.
true

That will start a war between Ethiopia and Egypt because they will drain the Nile

@@ethioramble what do you understand
That same thing I want to express
B1M's documentation is getting better and better ❤
Excellent video as usual! I love how you cover a range and not just one type. The Ethiopian Dam is particularly interesting to me, I've watched a couple videos on it and it is mad. I feel dams always have the most wide range of side effects that need to be considered when it comes to mega projects and it makes the decision to go forward and how they do it even more interesting.

Don't worry not a single drop will be taken from Egypt. What will be taken though it the title of regional power and that saddens many
@I Bo You sound hurt. I can understand that feeling. Thanks for the education on the topic, really interesting to see that scheme in action. I don't think it'd work in my country because people would be like "it doesn't benefit me directly, therefore no".
@Remo Gaggi no I am Ethiopian it is fundee fully by Ethiopia and it's constructed by Italy.
@Remo Gaggi Hey genius! Who told you that?
This YT channel is AMAZING, so happy i found it!
It’s stuff like this that shows how ingenious humanity can be and makes me feel hopeful for our future.
Why do counties modernise only when they get the chance to hold a soccer game
You are right
football world cup and Olympics are the most important sports events in the world. the infrastructure that is being build from it the money that pay comes from various of places: sponsors, FIFA , the state', world bank and so on.
Most of the infrastructure that are being build or improving helps the city and country and the citizen getting improved infrastructure like better public transportation, better waste management, better roads and more u can see it on Brazil, Beijing and South Africa.
There is a down size like big stadiums that left empty, but in todays world most of this new stadiums have various of uses like concert room, expo show room and even office stadium. And in the COVID-19 days hospitals.
To distract the people

America: Giant airport renovation.
Europe: Goddamn fusion reactor.
Africa: Nile river mega-dam.
Asia: MagLev bullet train.
Australia: Regular-ass skyscraper.
@Hudson Jaxson II Well that is a very expensive project
Australia gets another building that only a very few can afford to walk into let alone use it - build for the rich by the rich .... again.
Finn Hansen true 🤣
barangaroo as a whole would have been suitable. also search up the actual design of the crown casino. it's quite good and unusual
Finn Hansen Not long ago America also bombed First World countries like Germany and Japan
The channel doing what it says it's doing, I like these kinds of channels.
The professionalism you put into this channel is amazing. I love your content.
The way you present this gets me excited about how advanced and futuristic our world is increasingly becoming. Been watching your channel for a long while now and your videos only get better so keep up the great high quality work👍!!!
Wow, thank you!
The B1M is the best of you tube
This feels like watching a high quality documentary.
Congratulations on 1 Million Subscribers B1M!!!
B1M is the most educative channel on UA-cam 🙏🏽 the poject connecting Nagoya to Tokyo is pretty impressive
I wonder how many of these mega projects have stalled out due to the pandemic?
Not the dam it's being built in the middle of no where
The dam on the Nile is the most damning project.
Probably all of them, if only temporarily.
Barangaroo casino tower is still forging ahead. Construction is still continuing in Australia right now.
Or the economic collapse that is sure to follow. It will take longer than the pandemic.
Some of the big studios can learn a thing or two from the B1M. Keep it up!
rest of the world: let's improve infrastructure / build more buildings
europe: let's just science
The science project being built in France is by far the most important development for the future of humanity. Far more important than a dam or a railway.
MZ all are necessary though, wouldnt be much use if we stopped everything to do one of anything on this list
They are trying to make a star in the earth and use it's energy for our power grid, and it is nearly infinite energy. You make it sound like a minor project.
to be fair..ITER is worldwide effort that just happens to be build in France
The scale of some of these projects just boggles the imagination. And, they'll most likely continue increasing in scale and complexity in the future. Amazing!
Thank you for the new video! Bravo, B1M! 'The Best of the 'Net!'
Watching the Sydney skyline transform from my balcony is a pleasure, watching the Crown Tower slowly rising above all else. Finally a substantial new addition to Sydney.
@@fale892 It may not be, but to see some sort of substantial building that is able to be easily identifiable in the Sydney skyline is still something. Also, the fact that it would be Sydney's tallest tower. (not including Westfield Tower/Sydney Tower as it is an observatory building.)

Love your channel , thanks for including African /Ethiopian infrastructure projects
Very interesting video, and good info coverage! Altho I would suggest u still put some of the numbers down on video so it is easier to realise the enormity of these projects
The fusion reactor is the scariest project on this entire video
With everything going on in the world I appreciate you giving me a few minutes to escape reality and just enjoy your videos
Literally love your chan and would love you to make some videos looking further in-depth into some of these mega construction projects.
Another amazing presentation. Crown Casino at Barangaroo is making it's mark on the skyline. As I drive around vastly different locations in Sydney, I am constantly blown away by how far and wide the tower stands out.
Its really not that impressive on a global scale.... a normal sized high rise...
That Crown Sydney is 💯. Love the concepts behind the design.
Love these so much, The B1M! Thank you. :)
I LOVE stumbling onto great channels. Thumbs up and sub!
Dams will never cease to amaze me, their scale is both scary and brilliant at the Same time
I am proud of being Ethiopian and the GERD is my DAM!!!!

Best channel in UA-cam to gain knowledge about different types of projects for civil engineers and architects.
Good job B1M
Im laughing so much as i was hearing about airports i looked up O'hare's airport renovation and next thing i know its on the screen lol
My Ethiopian Grand Renaissance Dam is the most impressive one because we share our power to the neighbor countries and hopefully it’ll be sufficient.

Infinitely better chances of survival in concrete jungle than wild rainforest jungle.
The use of more visual content is very much appreciated. It's really intriguing to see the modeling of all these upcoming mega-projects.
Please keep up the use of pictures, 3D renditions or video tours. Paired with the highly informative narration it amps up our awe and fascination.
Your channel has kept me motivated to not to change my branch after graduation.. To stay and to pursue my higher education in structures... Hoping for amazing experiences ahead 😇
Pretty cool, seeing all the technological stuff at the beginning made me think about the types of stuff interstellar-travel capable planets out there have built. Must be some pretty mind blowing stuff.
We cannot even imagine dude!
A rare content on UA-cam. Really amazed with the selection of mega projects across the globe. I really hope The B1M strive for excellence.
P/S I really hope that you can put PNB 118 tower from Malaysia as one of the megaprojects. Keep smile love from Malaysia
Yet ANOTHER amazing video!
Why am I so proud that Chicago has one of the largest megaprojects in the next decade. People always think LA and NYC are the big, defining cities of the US, but fail to realize that Chicago is a globally-recognized city with a far better physical infrastructure than the two. If any city should be working towards expanding in the US, it is Chicago. I’m a little biased though because I have lived in this city all my life, but as a city, we truly have something profound to bring to the table
Incredible projects with incredible budgets!
Best channel, brings hope in future. ples, keep going!
I would love to see a video about structures made in the ancient days, like "the most ambitious construction of the past", it would be very interesting

I really enjoyed the video. I would request the owner to introspect on why he felt necessary to mention about the controversies in Africa regarding the dam project when there are controversies surrounding each one of those projects . Generally, I have noted that it is difficult for most people to talk about engineering marvels in Africa or India without mentioning the downsides (even if the video is about engineering and not an in depth research on the pros and cons). Most times this happens subconsciously and the author is probably not aware of his / her biases. Requesting the owner of this video to introspect.
