Just came from that video

[@jaydenrush3919]

Lol me too, as soon as I learned that the keystone installation was a big event, I had to see if I could find a film of it being done!

[@paulintalabot4132]

Me too ! Does anyone here have the title of this little piece of classical music supporting this short video?

[@Manuel-mb4zb]

Jared Owen sagt mir, dass ich mir das mal anschauen soll.😀

[@sp4604]

those guys up there had balls of steel

[@BreadOnDeckk]

I bet they didn’t but they were eating molten metal from the welds on that thing tho, i can tell you that much 😭😂

[@Thunderbolt_1000T]

no they had balls of goddamn titanium

[@nicholasgarrett9696]

@@BreadOnDeckk im sure they had bigger tougher balls than any of us in the comments. they were the alphas of their time and nowadays everyone is just spineless and squishy lol.

Thanks Jared owen

[@barefootbreezy6983]

If it was off by just 1-16th of an inch it could’ve not fit. Incredible display of human ingenuity

[@CH3RRYxB0MBx]

Does anyone have a confirmed explanation of how they managed to use the crane to place the keystone while having the hydraulic jack in place?

[@thenostalgicpodblast]
