Nach dem MEGA-Tsunami: Das Wunder von der Cabo de Hornos | Doku

A devastating 8.8 magnitude earthquake and a subsequent mega-tsunami ravaged the Chilean coast, washing the state-of-the-art, $62 million research vessel "Cabo de Hornos" hundreds of meters ashore. Given the catastrophic damage at the Talcahuano shipyard, the pride of the Chilean Navy faced scrapping before its maiden voyage could even begin. The Dutch salvage experts from Mammoet Salvage ultimately took on the seemingly impossible task of returning the unfinished, 2,000-ton behemoth safely back to the ocean. Using sophisticated, remotely controlled modular transporters (SPMTs) and specially constructed steel ramps, the team mastered centimeter-precise maneuvers under extreme time pressure. This gripping documentary reconstructs the spectacular rescue operation step by step and illustrates how engineering ingenuity and logistical mastery conquered the forces of nature.
