This is as good a place as any to ask, are there any good documentaries about how various stuff is made that isn't entirely fluff interviews & panning over assembly lines without any explanations about the engineering involved?
- omnibrain 11y agoIn Germany we have "Die Sendung mit der Maus" and there the specific part "Sachgeschichten". It's primarily aimed at children, though. https://www.youtube.com/user/Sachgeschichten https://www.youtube.com/user/Sachgeschichten
- auxym 11y agoHow It's Made is decent. Not much actual engineering talk though.
- ju-st 11y agoNo humans speaking, just 90 minutes footage of the BMW i3 car production / assembly line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29VHdcOvnK8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29VHdcOvnK8 It's incredibly hard to find really good documentaries, they are basically all fluff pieces as you mentioned :/ I have however good experiences with old docu's on Youtube (propably made in the 80s/90s and digitized from video casette). These kind of docu's don't have as many bad interviews as modern ones and just have more content imo.

- maybecorrect 11y agoThanks for that pointer - that is a seriously cool channel - I wasn't sure what to expect, but I'm really digging the videos discussing how to correctly assemble a jet engine.
