THE FALKIRK WHEEL - WTF!?!
Comments: 33
This is a rotating boat lift in Scotland that connects two different canals that are 24 meters apart, it's an awesome feat of engineering. The design of the central axle is based on the shape of the double-headed axe from Celtic tradition.

each lift uses less the power of an electric light bulb on for an hour. it is all to do with the physics involved it works as a large counter balance

that rotating bullshit s you describe actualy only uses around 1000w of power to raise several tons..... so ye its a waste of money not to do the same in the rest of the planet

i think the sums of money involved in making a global recession are slightly more than the cost of this machine

"places like shitty scotland" so let me get this straight, you think only "good" countries should be building new technology. well, that'd certainly keep things balanced, and bring us closer to a bette
