Genre: *Documentary* Richard Hammond reveals how engineers made one of
the longest bridges in the world earthquake-proof. Building a
structure almost 3 kilometres long in water 65 metres deep was almost
the least of the engineering challenges of bridging the Gulf of
Corinth in Greece. The construction would cross one of the most active
seismic fault lines in Europe. Defying disaster called for solutions
inspired by fragrant Indian incense, the ring-pull in a soda can, a
tobbogan, a hammock, and some shiny steel chimneys.
