The Ritom power plant in Ticino, which was built in 1920 and is located only a few kilometers from the Gotthard Tunnel, is in need of renewal. Since 2018, a number of contractors from the Marti Group have been working on this overall complex renovation on behalf of Ritom SA.

This was actually so well made I didn't know it was a corporate video. This is so well made it's incredible. As someone else said, give your media team a raise! Also the guy with the trumpet at the end is the real mvp

my jaw was on the floor for the entire video. not only was the animation exemplary, but the sheer ingenuity required to achieve tunnels like this is awe-inspiring.

my jaw too wtf to even execute, produce, direct, narrate, script, a documentary like this monumental like Einstein said when hearing a Menhuin performance: now i know god exists now let me go to sleep, please

Marti, I appreciate the way your team filmed this. You gave due credit to your workers and emphasized the physical labor and creativity they had to employ to make this possible, gave extremely clear visual and auditory explanations of each step and each setback, acknowledged some cliches in the editing process with a good sense of humor, and still managed to market your brand very well. This was a titanic task and your drilling team definitely deserve accolades for what they accomplished. Thanks for taking us all along for the ride. Best use of 30 minutes that I’ve spent in a while.

I'm in absolute awe, I'm speechless, the work these men have performed is next to impossible. This is the best documentary I've ever seen on youtube.

I thought this was a video I would click and leave after a few minutes, but then I noticed that I was already 20 minutes in. The video is a truly masterful creation, suitable for such an astonishing project. I learned a lot about tunnelboring, which isn't boring at all. That workers deserve all the appreciation they got! The setup and planning of the projectspecific infrastructure was also extremely interesting to me. Keep the wheels spinning!

@Walter Rutherford around 250,000,000 CHF = 269,965,500 USD for the design, fabrication, installation and commissioning. Certainly a lot more if you want to include the engineering cost of this giant drill system :P

Walter Rutherford ヶ月前

The only thing missing, (and one of the biggest questions I had while watching that), is the cost. Engineering the tunnel must’ve literally cost a fortune!

@mrlithium I am truly waiting for that to happen.

OneBiasedOpinion ヶ月前

My biggest enjoyment was hearing them acknowledge that they beat the challenges they faced thanks to professionals working tirelessly inside that tunnel day-in and day-out. Shows that they have at least _some_ baseline value as a corporation for their employees, which is saying a lot these days.

Well,what more can be said. It’s testimony of many skills required to make project like this to happen. Lots and lots of people contributing skills and experience to get results. Couple of things thou. There must be some clever system of rest areas with food and beverages and you guessed right - toilets and amenities. Right? Congratulations to all involved men an women. Bravo. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Perhaps we should mention that at the same time further to the East and North another bunch of “clever” buggers trying to blow up to smithereens another country. Bloody clever ehh. Don’t know. Good day to all.

This has set my bench mark for construction videos. Fantastic animations, self acknowledged dramatic music, no back stories of the workers, and even though its a promo, the branding is part of the story and not forced. I'm a cynical old prick but this was good enough for me to leave a positive comment.

@Han Solo of course, it runs the risk of educating the populous. And since there are still people, especially in marketing, that believe 'because I found school hard and boring it means all types of learning are boring, therefore since I dont see any entertainment value in it no one could possibly enjoy and be entertained by a seemingly boring learning opportunity.... because I took marketing at the community college and this piece of paper I acquired using homework help sites says I know what people want...by measuring it against what I want...and anyone that doesnt share that opinion is wrong' I can see it being an uphill battle to even put the idea in their heads. That being said, I would totally watch a technical/corporate video awards show. Could you imagine the on-boarding/orientation/"welcome to the company" category?! Sure there would be a ton of razzy worthy entries, but some companies have awesome media departments/contractors!

The Oscars would only benefit from such a category. It would finally be interesting.

Unexpectedly this was one of the very best videos I saw in a month! Amazing job (in real life and the video itself too)! It is rare that I can relate to huge celebrations in a video but on this occasion, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and I was cheering with the team! :D I am still blown by the smoothness of transitions of real-life footage and animations!

@Everett L Williams II agreed in my country women tend to score higher on average, in University and HS exams compared to men. Its a pitty more women didnt go into fields like civil mechanical electrical engineering. Theyve proven theyve got the brains for it

Everett L Williams II ヶ月前

@Ron Speaking of idiots, there are women engineers on tunneling projects around the world and a great deal of the work is brain work, not requiring brute strength. Think of all the design work that had to go into this before the TBM could tunnel a single inch. A simple error in design could end up with the TBM stuck in that crushed rock and having to be cut up and replaced in situ under the most hazardous conditions. There are many women engineers capable of such work and I am sure that some were involved in some aspects of this project. And I know quite a few women who would enjoy watching this video if their knuckle-dragger husbands would get out of the way and quit yelling for beer and food, as if they couldn't pause the video and get it for themselves.

Super Specialty ヶ月前

Awesome, I spent a short time in a Special Tools section that designed equipment to accomplish tasks for submarine repairs, but this tunneling task which took a year was phenomenal. What team work! To bad the world can’t get it together.

I never gave much thought as to how giant underground tunnels were created... The engineering, machinery and creativity humans use to achieve their goals is incredible! When I had tooth extractions and replacements done years ago, I was impressed then at the small scale of tools and components used so delicately. This surprises me the same way but at the opposite end of the size scale. @Marti Group: I don't think I would have understood or been as interested in the details had you not made such an engaging and illustrative video documentary of it like this. I'd like to say thanks for enlightening my mind today.

Bruce Boschek ヶ月前

There is so much to say here, but few words are often most appropriate. The tunneling effort itself is phenomenal and the workers performed miracles. The engineers and technicians did an amazing job dealing with much unknown geology. Finally, the creators of this video performed their own miracle. I watched the whole half hour with bated breath. Thanks to all involved.

I worked on the first TBM ever made by Robbins, U.S.A. 1958, 2.8 metres diameter. It was used on four tunnels in Tasmania and last used in 1987-1988 on the longest tunnel ever bored in Australia, Mangrove Mountain 10-6 kilometres, 1 in 100 up, with a best metreage of 326 metres in a six day week. Who ever would have believed that you could build and execute a TBM on a slope of 42 degrees? Phucken incredible feat of human endeavour and engineering. A great vid, best I have ever seen but an even greater team of tunnellers. Well phucken done to you all. Regards Rory, Tasmania.
