Big Bigger Biggest - Oil Rig (Part 1)

Episode Name: Oil Rig

Summary:
How did bridges evolve in size from tiny bamboo walkways spanning streams to long suspension bridges connecting distant islands? How did buildings surge in stature from ground-hugging houses to cloud-busting skyscrapers? We reveal evolutionary engineering leaps that enabled different types of structures to explode from big to bigger to biggest.

The second season of Big, Bigger, Biggest uncovers the inventions that enabled structures such as Tunnels, Telescopes, Dams, Space Stations, Submarines, Aircraft, Cruise Ships, Oil Rigs, Observation Wheels and Domes to grow in size and scale.

In this episode, we will uncover the six technological leaps in landmark oil platforms that have allowed the world's largest, the Perdido Spar, to be built in the Gulf of Mexico.

@trifio5242 I will

Since the British Petrol (BP) disaster and the contamination of the Gulf of Mexico that will impact the environment there for a hundred years these big drilling rigs should be banned all over the world. The oil money grubbing at the expense of destroying our waters and ocean life is an anomaly that must not be tolerated. Criminalize actions like the BP oil spill and put the criminals in prison for a very long time .
