How Did they Build the Suez Canal? 1859 to Today: Extreme Constructions | Documentary

We look back to the original construction of the Suez Canal, back in 1859, to show how it first came to be built, and how now, they are planning to widen it.

It’s a major construction project, aimed at doubling the width of the Suez Canal and deepening its main waterway. 500 million cubic meters of sand and soil have already been transported from all over the world. Using unprecedented 3D images, we reveal how the canal will be widened.

  1. It did not separate africa and asia
    It separated africa from africa
    All this money for production and you get that basic facts incorrect

  2. Why is it when you google original construction photos of the Suez Canal all images are drawings or paintings and not photos? I'll tell you why. Because the original Suez canal was old world construction which happened well before 1859. Yes there were cameras in 1859. The first camera was invented in 1816 by Joseph Nicephore Niepce. Question the time line narrative folks. We've been lied to on a grand scale.

  3. Splendid documentary. Good primer on dredging, fascinating engineering history, political history. Should be compulsory viewing for marine engineers and naval architects everywhere.

  4. Incredible. An hour long explanation that conveniently skips the questions I wanted answered. How was the water held back while building it? And how was the water released safely once finished?

  5. Staggering feat of ingenious engineering from mid 1900s to today 2024. Excellent history of Suez Canal. A shame the documentary didn't talk about the people of mid 1900s who excavated the Suez, like where they come from, how they died and photos, and what if any their descendants if if they work on the canal today. Thoroughly enjoyable history doc.

  6. Colonizers. They tried to split mother Afrika up and call it the “Middle East” when they’re is no Middle West. That’s North East Afrika😢😢😢😢

  7. My ship was part of the first United States Navy nuclear task force to transit the Suez. There were three ships. Two cruisers and an aircraft carrier.
