Tell me you don't know anything about engine components without telling me you don't know anything about engine components 😂

AT 2:17 it should say "a bore of 960mm and a stroke of 2500mm".

FYI, when I watch a video specifically about ship engines, I want to see engines, not cargo ships driving

[njjeff]

Can’t believe techs are using open end wrenches on high pressure lines! Wow!

[demibee]

Humans can reach incredible levels of engineering. I'm very impressed.

[JusticeAlways]

I'd like see how these huge parts are cast at foundries...gotta be amazing!

Can they update this to reflect Wartsila advances in compressed hydrogen gas, zero emissions, fuel cell engines?

[garymiller]

Super interesting! The power of those huge engines is nearly unbelievable. Thank you for the fabulous video. 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤

You got the stroke and bore backwards at 2:17, the bore is 960 mm and the stroke is 2, 500 mm.

[davidofshield]

The engineering looks intense...how the phuck do they do what they do?

[bijoylaha]

Tata and Mahindra two companies collaboration plant setup bullet train concept

[VKC]

You mixed up bore & stroke diameters.

[DanES]

Tells us everything without being specific about anything.

[tonylee]

Bore 960mm x stroke 2500mm another reverse u made😅

[javierjavier-htyu]

The trouble with this damn life is that everything costs, from a simple pencil to another thing costs, and if I don´t have money, what can I do??

[geerliglecluse]

If talking about turbine engines on navy vessels, it would be nice to see turbine powered vessels, instead of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers or mechanics working on Diesel engines. Just
