In a rare revelation, Beijing has admitted that its 2.4-kilometer Three Gorges Dam spanning the Yangtze River in Hubei province “deformed slightly” after record flooding.

Been following this. If it goes, which it could, the floods will be biblical with something like 400-500 million people living downstream.

It’s China. Same building materials as Shawshank. That puppy is crumbling down. I wonder how many living downstream even know.

That'll control the population for 'em! Won't need the Vid. Maybe they'll quit releasing it.

Gone through there on the train and seen the dam. This is going to be horrific if it breaks. Could be the worlds biggest disaster. So many millions live right downstream. If you have been there you know there is no way they are getting millions out of the way. It would take a month to get over the traffic jam.

I'm not saying I am praying for it to break, but I am.
Hopefully all Communist Party officials are standing on it for a photo op when it goes. -

Less than 10 deaths since mid April. -
America could learn something from how China handled a dam collapse with no deaths

The Three Gorges Dam is the world's largest hydropower project and most notorious dam. The massive project sets records for number of people displaced (more than 1.2 million), number of cities and towns flooded (13 cities, 140 towns, 1,350 villages), and length of reservoir (more than 600 kilometers).
I need to see the Environmental Impact Statement
