World's LARGEST Dam CRACKS - Kariba's Collapse Drowns 3.5 Million In 8 Hours

Описание: Kariba Dam collapse risk crisis is now measurable by the hour as the plunge pool carved beneath the world's largest reservoir has grown more than 50 meters deeper than its original design. A failure of Kariba would send a 70,000 cubic-meter-per-second pulse into the Zambezi River valley, threatening 3.5 million people across Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Mozambique.
