Rotating Boat Wheel In Scotland Has Potential |
The Falkirk boat wheel in Scotland is the world's first and connects
the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal. "With a diameter of
35-meters, it boasts two axe-shaped arms and water-filled caissons
boasting an 80,000-gallon capacity, capable of lifting 600-tons
(combined)." The thing cost almost $35 million to build, but only needs
22.5kW to run its motors. Pretty neat, I think it's got some potential.
Potential for a role in an action movie that is. I'm thinking a boat
chase, and this thing going maybe 20 to 30 times faster than it
normally does, and then the bad guys getting chopped up and all bloody
in it. Yeah! Then the scene ends with a dolphin humping a sea otter.
(the process normally takes around 7 minutes).
