RIDE TO THE TOP - Germany's Highest Construction Site | Full Documentary

Precision work at an altitude of 3,000 meters. A unique construction is being built on the Zugspitze - Germany's highest Mountain. With a total distance of 4.5 kilometers, the suspension railway being built there is not only the highest, but also the longest cable car in the world. But that's not all: it drives over a single support that sets another record at 127 meters. How does the alpine climate influence working conditions? Our documentation takes a look behind the scenes of the cable car construction site and accompanies the creation of the impressive structure.

Really amazing seeing the difference in safety standards from when the platform was originally built to today.

These engineers and construction workers have absolutely pendulous brass balls. Reminds me of the people that built the Boulder and Glen Canyon damn

[Codeforever]

Modern technology and engineering at it's best. No room for error as many lives could be lost. These boys earned their pay on this job!

Germany engineer is Super ! I went there to the top in winter 2017, pity the sky was not clear to see a stunning view. Hope to go back and visit again.

*Absolutely amazed how cool everyone in the helicopter reacted to it crashing. Also props to the pilot for handling it that well!*

I remember visiting there in the mid 80s, the views were amazing. The cable car ride to the top was terrifying, between the icicles falling from the cable onto the roof of the car and my brother trying to get the car to sway back and forth.

Fantastic engineering and very brave people!

[sjones]

Those guys did a brilliant job building in harsh conditions. They had to performed at the highest level everyday. That is engineering at its best.

[karlviolin]

wOw !! really impressive engineering and the highly skilled workers on the site blow me away

[BlazingAviation]

I had the opportunity to go there a few years ago. Definitely a place I’ll never forget. Nice to see how that was built. I was wondering about that myself. So glad I found this. This channel has some amazing documentaries.
