Imagine driving across a bridge near the North Pole, leaving Alaska at one end and arriving in Siberia at the other end; or visiting a city built within a pyramid in Tokyo Bay; or speeding from New York to London in just an hour through a tunnel under the Atlantic Ocean. These are just some of the projects that come to life as builders and engineers design and construct the largest, most outrageous and awe-inspiring projects ever conceived. Jaw-dropping computer animation breathes life into such fantastic, yet possible creations. COOPER RIVER BRIDGE: In Charleston South Carolina, builders are constructing a record-breaking new bridge. But they 're doing it in the worst possible place. Smack in the middle of hurricane alley, on the most earthquake-prone piece of real estate on the East Coast and right in the path of the world's biggest and heaviest container ships. Now, with the full fury of storm season bearing down upon them, builders scramble to pick up the pace . Working from opposite banks, 200 feet over the water, they have just one week to hang 250 tons of steel and concrete to bring the main span closer to completion. But every new segment they add makes the bridge more vulnerable to impending disaster.
