No audio?
I really enjoy your videos, pls can you make a video on digital potentiometer.
Doing these reuploads is actually worse for your analytics and trying to build a following. It annoys current followers, looks like a cash grab (instead of earnest science communication), and resets your stats for each video, making it less likely to be recommended by the algorithm. Your best bet is experimenting with titles and thumbnails the first 24 hours or so after posting.
Good animation
the video is solid, but the random loud music outbursts are terrible, distracting and a pretty big turn off.
A bit of trivia: 96 men died in the construction of this damn. The last man to die was the son of the first man to die. Great video, thanks!
Good pun in the first sentence
It was more than that, it's been Said that the company wanted the number to be less than 100 for the public eye. The real number was more like 110-120
@@PandaTaco that sound about right. Good to know.
It's huge loss of life... May Allah rest them peace and increase the longevity of the dam...
The hard hat was an invention by a rock scaler at the site. He turned 2 baseball caps back to front and dipped them in tar several times till they hardened.
I had never imagined Superman with Mjolnir, and here we are
Yeah everything was right but SUPER MAN with HAMMER 😅😂🤣
Superman couldn't use Mjolnir. He went on his drunkard & evil spree when he thought Lois was killed. 🤷🏻♂️😆
And 88 years later the dam is still working to perfection and hopefully will continue to serve America for years to come. Great video.
except it's not. there hasn't been a lot of water or power production for quite some time.
That is true. Power output has decreased significantly, and the cost to maintain is being questioned.
It would be working for the next 262 years when it would become a strategic location for the New California Republic
@@duroisgawdpower production is a side note, that wasn’t its main goal. Its main goal was water control.
Please normalize audio levels, commentary is too quiet compared to the sound effects
Wow. This video is art. Thank you, Lesics.
Idk about art but it Def is something
"... I was a dam builder... on a river deep and wide... where steel and water did collide..." Waylen Jennings
Special thanks for creating such useful video for us, watching from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
🤚
Very helpful , presents a lot of knowledge in very effective way. Being a structural engineer I always enjoy such videos.
I have been there many times and it is something to see in person you can't really appreciate it until you have been there amazing feat of engineering.
that song is so out of the blue. It took me off guard
These animations are super useful to understand the subjects deeply thanks to your hole team
Impressive video. This is better than school. No teacher is this smart.
One of the great Engineering channel. I have weatched that construction before but didn’t' know about the gap.Tnx a lot....
Our visit to the dam was awe inspiring. Its sheer size is amazing, and the guided tour inside the dam is one we will never forget. An engineering masterpiece that is unmatched. However, with the dwindling water level in Lake Mead, the dam's usefulness for generating electricity has been seriously hampered. Hopefully, weather conditions will reverse this downward spiral of Lake Mead's capacity to store water. Excellent video.
Great job Lesics
🙌 for great visuals
I learned a lot from this dam video
A very informative video. Thank you very much.
It's really amazing information. Thanks for your informative animation 😊😊😊😊
The narration...with weird placed and volumed sound effects...nearly unwatchable
Keep up the good work, even though you guys are running under profit wise you guys are producing world class content. Thanks Lesics.
Brilliant thanks for this
I like the video and the animations. 👍👍👍
Very interesting, and to understand how water generates electricity, great engineering, technology and hard work of all the workers involved in this project construction From Washington DC
Very good presentation. It is quite a large structure that I hope to visit some day.
Interesting, I never thought about the design of the dam.
So elegant.
Haha😂 who animated the Superman? They didn’t even try
Many years ago I took a tour of the inside of the Hoover Dam. Very impressive & beautiful structure. Sad that the water levels are so low.
Over watering in a desert landscape (Phoenix Metro area)
@@charlesball6519 That doesn’t help, but from what I’ve read, the majority of the water from the Colorado River is allocated to & used in California.
Thanks ❤
aw shit is that superman with a thor hammer 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
aw shit is that superman with a Thor💯💯💯 vs (?????Hammer???🔥🔥🔥 13:02
Work on background music
Increíble construcción y logro de ingeniería 😯
Amazing ❤❤
In 1930 as well. Amazing.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but... I don't think a beaver could have built this.
can u prove he didnt?
Thanks!
whoever edited this video did an awesome job and needs to be paid more
How do they synchronize the generators to be in phase and and at the correct frequency? That is the more interesting question.
Shaft brake, I imagine, applying just a small amount of pressure to slow it slightly down until it is in phase and then lock it in to the grid and release the brake. Also water gate adjustment works
Which signal do you guys trade
it's about the fake traders that you meet you haven't heard about Olivia Palermo yet
She's mostly on Telegrams, using the user name.
@Olivpal77💯.. that's it
Dam good video!
Brilliant
Thank you.
🔥🔥🔥
This was a dam good video.
Never thought Superman will lift mjolnir 😂😅
the water molecules are so cute >.
Hai sir.....superb explanation 👌 Please make a video on india's biggest masonry dam "NAGARJUNA SAGAR DAM" It has superb constructional facts. I will help you on this sir
Such a great video, but ruined by the cuts in audio causing cracking and popping.
Actually, it's an alternator, not a generator.
5:48 The Story of The Hoover Dam is by far the most comprehensive documentary on the actual construction of the dam. Herbert Hoover, himself an engineer was in a perfect position to work with the Bureau of Reclamation and oversee everything from the bidding to the building. The structure is known as a gravity arch dam which uses the simple physical properties of weight and the distributive properties of an arch. The entire structure is a huge plug in the canyon walls sitting on a huge foundation.
So, magic music inserted
genius
Awesome
The fact this was built in the 1930s is amazing.
@9:10 I really liked your videos.. but please use clean containers to show your experiment.
at 7:04. The dam construction part reminds me of the show, Big Bigger Biggest
When will the dam have to be pulled down?
Is this a re upload?
yeah, it's a thing they do to try nd get more followers, even tho it's counterproductive
Did they actually test water overflow or were there any such situations in real life?
That's how you build a DAMN! DAM!
Bonsoir, Les sous-titres en Français ne sont pas actif......
Amazing lesics raise funding for this youtube channel
Solar farms are able to generate the same power as the Hover dam. Just not after a hail storm....
10:50 exactly how an alternator on a car works their is no magnet but you need to send power to the alternator to initiate the magnetic field and generate power
Wooooow 15:54 ❤❤❤❤
17:00 bro jumpscare
“ Tunnel boring machines unpopular at the time”?? They simply did not exist for hard rock tunnels. First introduced in the 1950’s. Also the jumbos did not drill sideways as the illustration shows.
its ai generated
@@ganondalf8090 no, it's manually generated using 3D CAD software.
can you provide metric units for the majority of the world?
Block by block concrete pouring. Dude was a Minecraft visionary. 😅
You should probably go out to Boulder City and watch the actual videos of production. Your artist rendering is cute but not accurate. The actual videos are free to view in Boulder City. They charge to watch it at the dam.
Hmm, how is there water underneath the dam if it was built on top of hard strata?
11:50 Lower roll spins the wrong way
Same way we did Niagara Falls. Did you know at night they shut part of the falls off by diverting most of the water into the turbines
Hoover Gyatt
bro! john savage
If you're fortunate enough to visit the Hoover Dam, you must take the "Dam Tour" its worthy of your time and money!
Expand or contract? You leave a gap so it has room to expand.
I THINK SO THAT INOVATIVE THUMNAIL LEAD TO THE SUCESS OF VIDEOS IF YOU DONT BELIEVE ME , JUST SEE YOU OLDER VIDEOS . ONLY THOSE VIDEOS HAVE VIEWS WHICH HAVE PUBLIC ATTRACTING THUMB NAIL
Doesn't steel rust used to make pipes???
Looks like a part of female anatomy from the top view.
10:14 ohh that's how a turbo works in side the supra💀💀💀
present sir
Why has Lesic’s animation quality decreased significantly?
Using same old software probably...I'm no animator. I just watch Corridor Crew. Perhaps Lesics should just use Unreal Engine 5, so Lesics can see the animations and renders in real-time.
It's comically bad
@@EyesOfByes that's not how animation works, it's like drawing: using better paper and pencils won't change your ability to draw, they look bad simply because they stopped putting in as much time(or money).
When music came on I thought I had received a notification on my tablet. The music then got annoying
👍👍
Display your Patreon link at the bottom of the video at all times, so viewers who don't watch until the end can learn about it. Additionally, leave a comment on all your videos explaining the significance of your Patreon and pin it. This way, those who are able to contribute can be informed about your Patreon.
In 1931 even
The wierd music soundeffects (for example when superman appears) can be left out in my opinion ;)
That guy only ran 10 steps before Detonating the dynamite
❤❤
16:35 - It took 6 years to fill Lake Mead, so viewers couldn't see the huge reservoirs of water after just one month.
Love your videos, but pls leave out the music
Nice collab between DC and marvel 😂
Ehm, excuse me! Is this a God dam?
Not stated here is 5 companies pulled this out and did it all. I got to meet with the Son of one of these men and he was something else himself. Now he has Passed. His children live on.
Great video other than the ridiculously loud sound effects and wtf animations.
Confusion about contraction and expansion of concrete, and upstream vs downstream. . .
does anyone know a channel like this but talks about IT?
