You guys did a great job with this documentary!! Thank you for the whole story of the Colville tribe included in this documentary. My big thing is the WHOLE STORY NOT JUST THE GOOD PARTS. AGAIN THANK YOU FOR THE HONEST REPORTING!!

And in 1995 the settlement with the Colville confederate tribes was finally met we get 3 % of the Damm output annually!! If I build something on your property would you be INSULTED WITH THAT? UNREAL AND THEY ONLY USE IT WHEN THE GRID IS LOADED DURING PEAK TIMES

Well produced and Informative Documentary. Really Impressed with the Engineers and Planners, the construction in general of this Great Dam Project. Both the Hoover Dam and the Grand Coulee Dam had to have some of the most skilled and knowledgeable Engineers in the US working on this Dam, a Near Miracle in my thinking.

Great info & I love the pictures and videos! The music feels a bit out-of-place near the end, though.

Good old-fashioned boosterism. Today it would be denounce because the are po' folks in Mississippi.

What would prevent a boat from getting sucked into it?

Today they would've spent more on consulting firms than the dam costs itself.

LBJ and the Jews did it. Bobby Kennedy was gonna put LBJ in jail bc he was dishonest in TX. Not that the Kennedys are so innocent. George HW oversaw it as he had security connections and was rewarded an oil contract from LBJ and the Jews got a bomb in the Middle East. In the last year of LBJs term they launched a surprise attack on the Arab countries when they knew LBJ would support them. Entire affair was organized by CIA but nobody’s loyalty is to “intelligence”. It’s to themselves and their tribe. This country is hilariously worse than any 3rd world place we think of. And the people of Texas and their useless security apparatus are why we’re in this situation. Their lack of accountability is what cost this country its independence. Stay safe everyone! Love thy neighbor and deport all illegals and we’ll all make it out ok.

This feels like a corporate training video and it's awesome

We were such a can do country 100 years ago . Now we build heated sidewalks for the homeless to pee on. We've come a long way

When the destruction of our ecosystems isn't enough...

Im from grand coulee born and raised there. Both my grandparents worked on the dam in the 60s and 70s. My parents were highschool sweet hearts. I lived on the lower part of the dam.

The high canal was never built. The Gubment told farmers to dig wells and then when they did, they began sucking the aquafer dry. They sunk their wells deeper and deeper. And of course, the Gubment then claimed that water belonged to the Gubment and farmers were forced to shut down. So typical of the Gubments almighty power and greed.

*Correction: vast Indian wasteland.

used to take my boat out on the lake 3 days a week......miss those good times now

As usual, an eloquent and inspiring speaker that motivates a nation. I only wish he fulfil his term in office. Rest in Love Mr President.❤😢😢❤

thank you for restoring the river!!

You gotta love progress in the early part of the 1900s the slogan was, “Nature be dammed”

Lookee thar Folks! Looks to be 100% American Manpower that build The Grand Coulee Damn. It wasn't till our Southern Border was breached by the Clinton & Obama Regimes that Americans became so financially displaced by cheap foreign workers and could not find gainful employment any longer in the construction trades.

The qestion is... what happens if you fall in 😂

American is a amazing nation ❤ sad to see what a unbalance government in CA. The Democrats have destroyed this state. My heart is sad. Praying for CA

Treated like royalty wherever he went

A marvel of salmon destruction.

I would be more proud of BuRec if they could manage the Colorado River and The Water in California better. So much fresh water goes to waste into the ocean instead of going into groundwater recharge basins or into new reservoirs. I know that’s not what this video is about but I would throw it out there. At the end of the day it doesn’t matter what or who you identify as. We all need more fresh water storage in a drying climate.

Thank-you all, for all the work you have done and are doing.

Yeah damn gates 😂...❤ underway concrete repair 🤿

The only thing that Johnson did that was of merit.

Sadly the powers that be have virtually outlawed farming in the Northwest.

Who owns that big pile of left over sand?

I love research about climate change. Your ultimate goal is impressive. Good luck 🍀

I has an idea!. Do you know anchor ice! If I had a magic wand, I would command: "That mud(sediment) should rise to the surface of the water and go to shore." So our problem is solved. And here is a scientific problem that needs research: Mud(sediment) only floats when it is lighter than water, with only air and ice. The mud (sediment) is wrapped in ice, floats, flows to the gathering place, moves the ice onto the truck, waits for the ice to melt, we have dry mud on the truck, transported to the cropland. We will save energy if we make it in winter!

This doc is lit

I've seen this dam 3 times since 1977, it's never failed to awe me, well worth the trip.

This reminds me of a documentary I saw about the building of the Panama Canal recently. The theme was the same. When our government decides to build something it will get done. Gotta say '"well done".

That my claim

You got it wrong - the new narrative is women built this country

There was an old joke about a man hanging a curtain rod for his wife. He accidentally missed with the hammer and smashed his thumb. He bent over, holding his thumb and screamed, "GRAAND COULEEE!" His wife asked, "Why Grand Coulee?" He replied, "That is the biggest DAMN in the World!"

the project was a mistake..destroyed towns made at least 3 speicies of salmon extinct and pissing off canada so they fill the river with lead and murcury..destroyed the fishing economy of all communities up stream..also eliminating the stunning kettle falls and the fishery ther

ONE OF MY Uncles was a crane operator for the construction of Grand Coulee.

A great project for America's North West!

@17:29 *Accidents are YOUR LOSS* LOL wow.... Guess they were saying if you get hurt then don't come cryin to us.... Must have been some real hard bosses there

We could never do something like this today

Imagine the politicians putting the country into a recession and deliberately bankrupting its own citizens, stealing their money just so they can build an expensive project cheaply! And then the politicians make themselves look like hero's by hiring the men that they originally put out of work to do the job and because everyone is so desperate for work then the government can get them for cheap and also allows the government to break alot of safety rules in the name of progress. It seems that these big projects always conveniently happen during a recession. It proves to me over and over that these politicians don't care about the people only their money!! Recessions are the biggest form of human torture their is and the politicians use it to get what they want. Wake up people things need to change starting with informing the naive of what's happening to them.

Now instead of paying people to do great projects like this we give money, no work involved to people who come into our country without following our laws. We no longer take care of our own like we should.

Outstanding speech!

Indeed, the 1st Nations and the workers paid the dearest price of all 😢😢

The Grand Coulee Dam was instrumental in providing the energy needed to produce the Plutonium at Hanford Nuclear Reservation.

I just want to say, those bolts are not 6” lol they look closer to 12-15” like one of those bolts had to have been the weight of atleast two 454’s lol
