Millau Viaduct: How They PUSHED a Bridge Across the Valley

The Millau Viaduct carries a motorway above a vast valley with unusual grace. This episode follows the chosen route, wind strategy, seven piers, deck launching and the final transformation from pieces on land into a bridge above the void. Building Giants reveals how the world's boldest landmarks were imagined, engineered and built through clear visual storytelling and realistic matchstick-model reconstructions.
