What could a 12th century Mongol bow and the largest passenger plane in the world have in common?

This brand new series fronted by Richard Hammond follows him scouring the globe to investigate modern miracles of engineering. Going deep inside elaborate structures, Richard reveals the often surprisingly simple, yet remarkably effective secrets that make them tick and how their very existence is attributable to things as diverse as a bird cage and a 19th century rocket.

How did a birdcage lead to the building of Taipei 101, and why does the fate of a million ton gas platform rest in the hands of a single musical note?

Premieres Mondays at 9pm from 8th September.
