A gigantic bore
$1:
Using a drill with a diameter of 14.4 metres, Austrian construction contractor Strabag will begin digging a tunnel this summer to divert water from the Niagara River to the Sir Adam Beck Complex. The tunnel will run 10.4 kilometres, about 100 metres beneath the city of Niagara Falls.

I'm waiting for it to be featured on Ultimate Machines, or some such show.
