Dirty Great Machines

Take a trip underground and get up close and personal with titans of tunneling: the biggest, baddest tunnel boring machines on the planet. These monsters dig deeper and faster than ever before, gouging holes in the Earth's crust for subways and sewers.

Get dirty with the monsters of mining. These building-sized behemoths cut, scrape, blast, and dig through dirt and rock to get to the most precious minerals on the planet.

Dive deep underwater and marvel at these maritime monsters. These huge drill ships and jet trenchers transform the bottom of the world's oceans, extracting precious oil and laying international cable to support our huge global economy.

Come have a blast with these hard rock heroes. When you need to drill dozens of holes through hard granite, you call in these bad boys to clear the way for the dynamite that helps bring hard rock to homes and construction sites around the world.
