- MATTERHORN MEGA PROJECT: Building Europe’s Highest Cable Car | WELT Documentary
The Matterhorn is the site of one of Europe's most ambitious cable car projects, designed to connect Switzerland with Italy. This extraordinary construction effort at over 3800 meters altitude faces extreme weather conditions that can change six times a day. The project involves heavy cargo deliveries by helicopter, making it a remarkable feat of engineering and logistics. The goal is to create Europe’s highest alpine cable car, linking Klein Matterhorn in Switzerland to Testa Grigia in Italy.
Working at such high altitudes presents numerous challenges, including thin air, freezing temperatures, and the need for specialized machinery. Every component is pre-assembled in South Tyrol to ensure perfect fitting when transported to the construction site. The construction team, battling harsh weather, must maintain precision and safety at all times. This project is not just about building a cable car; it is about overcoming nature’s obstacles with innovation and resilience.
The Matterhorn Glacier Ride aims to become a monumental achievement in the Alps, enhancing connectivity and tourism between the two countries. The cable car system features state-of-the-art technology, ensuring smooth and stable rides even in strong winds. Once completed, it will offer breathtaking views and a seamless travel experience across the iconic mountain range. This project underscores the engineering prowess and determination required to achieve such an extraordinary goal.

"At 3,800 meters, every bolt has to be in place...!"
That's something I didn't expect ...
The roof on a new stadium in Detroit collapsed because the team putting it together thought it would flex better under extreme weather variations if they left half the bolts out. When they rebuilt it, the engineers had to explain the roof was designed to flex with ALL the bolts in.
@@philscott7949 ... they were clearly asking for it ...!
That's why building at sea level is so much easier. You don't have to use any fasteners.
@@chadchadchadchadchad .... 🤣🤣🤣👍
"This" can be called "art"
for my understanding !!!
When it absolutely CANNOT fail...German and Swiss engineers won't let you down...Amazing logistical nightmare carried out by some of the best in the industry....Thanks for the upload...Very interesting! It must be amazing to be born and live in those areas of the world...None of the pressures like we have here in Philly...:)
Great guys
pelo que tenho acompanhado pela internet, EUA, com grande problema de drogas e sem teto, e talvez o pior de tudo, a volta do amalucado Donald trump, sem falar no apoio ao açougueiro Sionista, responsável pela matança de inocentes pessoas (palestinos)
5 minutes explaining exactly what problem they have solved would have been nice. Is there a tunnel for people to walk through to the other cable car at the top? How do people get to the base station which is just 1.5km lower than the peak?
This is "american style" document. They repeat obvious things 5 times. But they do not explain the basic stuff.
Interesting, the testing on the wires and components was done at a lower altitude and a normal temperature, let’s hope it holds up to the extreme conditions where it counts
Been here and was amazed
These guys have the best job in the world.
🏆🤗💪🙏
Thank you for sharing this
Absolutely amazing project 💪
DW thanks for sharing this documentary !
Teknologi yang sangat lur biasa ,dengan orang orang yang jenius👍
guys be playing "death stranding" irl
Overall great channel with docs like they used to be!! Not sure if you are the producers of the docs themselves. If you have influence, here's some well-intended feedback: All the docs that I've seen have, in my opinion, oversimplified or "dumbed things down" too much. Sometimes even minor factual errors just to swoop over a detail instead of diving in a little bit deeper.Also just in this one I think you don't need to fade the music. Keep it at the lower level as a maximum. Thank you for your hard work!
best documentary chanel
Yes, but too many politics, wars, weapons, tanks and fighters.
The good people refuse the worst of humanity.
“was”, perhaps taking into account the fact that over the past week three dubious two-minute news clips have been posted. If they continue in the same vein, then I will unsubscribe, this is not what I need.
Really?

Imboden is also a little town in Arkansas
Right down the road from Inbreaden
41:45 that looks like the starting point to an absolutely amazing roller coaster
The one in Mürren is MUCH better, it will be open this December. It will be the steepest cable car in the world (160% inclination)
looks like a bond villain lair

Dam for snow

Shnow ships
WHAT NAME THIS ROBOT IS THAT MAKE IT ?
Black tap like 3 wertical shweylers red
Good doch, but who is the narrator?
Can anyone tell him that compound nouns are stressed on part one, not two?
It‘s _return_ trip, not return _trip_
_waiting_ game, not waiting _game_
_quality_ standards, not quality _standards_
_rear_ part, not rear _part_
_custom_ manufactured, not custom _manufactured_ .
air can’t be soo hard. Professional speakers should do better!
i didnt see any woman on top of that mountain during construction. where is the equality
Why!?
I don’t get why the need for this project
Non si può capire tutto nella vita.

@JG - Tourist € $
Poor mountain no longer free of human hardware
YIKES! 60 million Euros sure sounds impressive!
But um.....hold on there folks; cause once again it's California that REALLY knows how to SPEND money; Ladies and Gentlemen; I give you the puny, 200 hundred long, Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing outside of Los Angeles that is projected to cost $92 MILLION ! (84,579,280. Euro!!!) It's basically a "Disneyland style" bridge over the 101 highway for deer and mountain lions.
America; FOOK YEAH!
This is completely irrelevant. Go spew your nonsense somewhere else.
Why are they building this cable car system in the first place? Who are the commuters who need this? Or is it yet another pricey tourist trap at 100 francs per ride?
god bless white people
@gary- Gos is extremely embarrassed about White people
Destroying a beautiful mountainside for tourists.
Another mountain destroyed..
👎👎we are learning the the environmental cost of these lifts. Just like the Hoover Damn…maybe we need to ask, should we, instead of, can we.
the shit they do to nature...sad, they should just leave it alone
