Conduire les plus grandes machines sur Terre—comme des camions-bennes géants, des grues et des bulldozers—ressemble un peu à être dans un vaisseau spatial sur roues. Ces machines monstres sont conçues pour gérer des travaux difficiles, comme creuser d'immenses fosses ou transporter des tonnes de roches, et elles peuvent être aussi hautes qu'un immeuble ! Le siège du conducteur est très en hauteur, vous donnant une vue impressionnante sur tout, mais il faut aussi une compétence sérieuse pour contrôler toute cette puissance. Les commandes à l'intérieur peuvent ressembler à un mélange entre une voiture et un cockpit, avec de nombreux boutons, leviers et écrans à surveiller. Manœuvrer ces machines est lent et régulier, et cela peut demander beaucoup de concentration pour s'assurer que tout se passe en douceur et en toute sécurité. Pour ceux qui les conduisent, c'est une expérience enivrante et unique en son genre !

00:00Are you ready to discover what you feel when you maneuver the biggest machines in the world?
00:06It's a unique experience, don't miss it.
00:09The first monster you're going to pilot is the Giant Agode excavator.
00:13It turns a field in a blink of an eye.
00:17The excavator you're going to ride in is the Bagger 293,
00:21one of the most imposing machines in the world.
00:24This real titan among the giants was built in Germany in 1995.
00:30If you want to examine it before getting to work,
00:33you have to prepare yourself physically, because the walk will be long.
00:37It measures nearly 225 meters long.
00:40Once in the cabin, you will observe the surrounding landscape from a height of 96 meters.
00:45And don't try to lift this beast.
00:48It weighs 14,000 tons, as much as the Brooklyn Bridge.
00:53If you want to try something else, I can suggest the little brother of the Bagger 293,
00:58the Bagger 288.
01:00You may like it even more than its sister.
01:03Currently, an energy and mining company uses this mastodon.
01:08With a little luck, it will let you test this excavator in Godet.
01:12It serves as an open-air extraction mobile machine.
01:15It took ten years to design and build this colossus,
01:18whose cost is about 100 million dollars.
01:21And it is barely thinner than its powerful sister,
01:24i.e. 13,500 tons,
01:26half the weight of the Statue of Liberty.
01:29Going around this excavator, or climbing inside its cabin,
01:33also requires some effort,
01:35because it is quite close in size to the Ogress we were talking about a moment ago.
01:39A little too much exercise for a single day,
01:41and look at these 12 huge caterpillars that propel the machine.
01:44It gives all its speed to this giant,
01:47allowing it to move at nearly 10 meters per minute.
01:50Phew, let's go for the race.
01:54Oh, I see.
01:55You have enough excavators,
01:57and you want to try something a little different.
01:59Let me introduce you to the Tyson crane.
02:01This gargantuan construction makes perfect sense
02:04when you realize that, to build big machines,
02:07you need something as big,
02:09or even bigger,
02:11to move all the parts.
02:13The Tyson crane could well be the ideal tool for this purpose.
02:16To test it, you will have to go to a shipyard in China.
02:20Isn't it the biggest crane you have ever seen?
02:23It is also considered to be the most powerful crane in the world,
02:26with a load capacity of more than 20,000 tons.
02:29This means that it could lift more than 150 blue whales at a time.
02:33And they are the biggest animals on the planet.
02:35All you have to do is convince them to lend themselves to the game.
02:39What would you say about digging a little?
02:41The big Bertha can help you.
02:43With it, this activity is a child's play.
02:45It is the largest and most impressive tunnel in the world,
02:48with a total length of 91 meters.
02:51Take Big Ben in London and lay it on the ground.
02:54This is what Bertha looks like.
02:56This machine is also five-story high,
02:58and there is no elevator to access its top.
03:01This 7,000-ton monster is regularly transported from one construction site to another.
03:05It is certainly not an easy job.
03:08We are now going to discover something different.
03:11Why not a superdoser?
03:13Here is the Komatsu D-575A,
03:16the largest and most powerful bulldozer in the world.
03:19It is produced in Japan,
03:20but the machine is mainly used in Australia and North America.
03:24You can therefore choose any of these regions to test this super machine.
03:28But entering its cabin is not a very easy thing,
03:31given its height.
03:33If you get there, you will know what a power of 1,150 horsepower looks like.
03:37If you want something more exotic,
03:39we can go test the NASA caterpillar transporter.
03:42It was designed to move entire rockets.
03:45Although it is about 50 years old,
03:47this giant machine is still as impressive.
03:50The caterpillar transporter is the size of a baseball field,
03:53and its maximum speed is 1.6 km per hour
03:57when it carries a load and 3.2 km per hour without load.
04:01Since its launch,
04:03this giant has already traveled more than 3,700 km,
04:06almost the length of the Mississippi River.
04:10I hope you enjoyed this extraordinary experience,
04:13but now we're going to fly away.
04:16And there, the king of the sky,
04:18it's the McDonnell Douglas KC-DX Extender.
04:21This giant machine has two functions,
04:23fuel refueling and cargo transport.
04:27Look at this plane.
04:28Its wingspan is comparable to that of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
04:32It's breathtaking.
04:34The length of this plane is even more impressive.
04:38Once you take off,
04:40you will feel the power of this machine.
04:43It carries 160 and 1,500 kg of fuel.
04:47Let's do the math.
04:48A plane like the Boeing 747
04:51consumes about 3.7 liters of fuel per second.
04:55For a 15-hour flight,
04:57that gives 204,412 liters,
05:00or about 173,700 kg.
05:04As a result,
05:05our McDonnell Douglas KC-DX Extender
05:08could supply this airliner
05:10for almost the entire duration of its flight.
05:14Now I'm going to show you something
05:15you've never seen before.
05:17It's the F-60 conveyor belt.
05:20This colossal beast is the largest conveyor belt in the world.
05:24I bet you can't wait to play with this monster.
05:27It measures nearly 500 meters long,
05:29200 meters wide and 80 meters high.
05:32Climbing to the top is like climbing a 18-story building.
05:36The entire construction weighs 11,000 tons,
05:39almost as much as the famous Eiffel Tower.
05:41This conveyor belt was built in 1991 in East Germany.
05:47What would you say to enjoy the sun
05:49and watch the waves crash on the shore?
05:52We are now going to visit one of the largest ships in the world,
05:55the Prelude.
05:56This giant machine is a floating natural gas plant.
06:00It is nearly 490 meters long.
06:02It is so huge that if you placed it vertically
06:05next to the Empire State Building,
06:07it would exceed it by about 45 meters.
06:10And it would completely block traffic in Manhattan.
06:13You are probably thinking that piloting this monster
06:15is not an easy task.
06:17At full load, it weighs no less than 600,000 tons,
06:20which is five times more than the Toronto CN Tower in Canada.
06:24And since we are talking about legendary ships,
06:26we absolutely need to mention the famous SeaWise Giant.
06:29It also has other names,
06:31such as the Happy Giant and Nock Nevis.
06:34Built in Japan,
06:36it once held the record for the longest ship in the world,
06:39with a tonnage of 657,000 tons at full load.
06:43This ship was so large
06:45that it could not take on the main canoes,
06:47those of Suez and Panama, for example.
06:50Unfortunately, it was seriously damaged during a conflict,
06:54but it was saved later
06:56and was transformed into a storage unit.
06:58Unfortunately, it is no longer possible to visit it.
07:01In 2009, it was dismantled after its last voyage.
07:05Then we have a floating vacuum cleaner.
07:08This is the Queen of the Netherlands,
07:10a drag ship built in 1998.
07:14This machine has a port weighing 60,000 tons
07:17and is twice as long as a football field.
07:20Its role is to vacuum the vase and debris from the seabed.
07:23In fact, you can even know
07:25where this huge ship is in real time.
07:28You may have noticed
07:30that we have not yet traveled by train.
07:32We will fix it.
07:34Here is the Big Boy.
07:36This steam locomotive is the largest ever built.
07:38It is 40 meters long
07:40and weighs 544,000 kilos.
07:43These machines were so powerful
07:45that they could pull trains of entire goods
07:48through mountain ranges without getting tired.
07:51And finally, it is possible to visit
07:53the world's largest machine,
07:55Hadron's Great Collider,
07:57located on the border between Switzerland and France.
08:00It is a 27-kilometer-long particle accelerator.
08:03Scientists use it to crush subatomic particles
08:07against each other
08:09and unravel the mysteries of the universe.
08:11So you'd better not get close to it.
08:13The noise is so short that it could create a black hole.
08:16It's a joke,
08:18but the LHC remains the most powerful particle accelerator ever built
08:22and it pushes the limits of our knowledge in physics.
08:25And here's a little bonus.
08:27I hope you like speed,
08:29because you're going to climb on the biggest motorcycle in the world.
08:31This gigantic motorcycle is 5 meters high
08:34and weighs 5.5 tons,
08:36as much as a little elephant.
08:38And the most beautiful thing is that this motorcycle
08:40has already traveled a distance of about 41 meters.
08:43Which of these monstrous machines would you like to maneuver?
08:46Tell us everything in the comments.
