Floating City
The biggest cruise ships on earth are longer than an aircraft carrier and twice the height of the Statue of Liberty. Danny hops aboard the Freedom of the Seas in the Caribbean to find out how this self-sufficient floating city feeds, sleeps and entertains over 4,000 guests. He then heads to a remote, icy port in Finland, to help build Freedom's sister ship, Independence of the Seas, and finds himself driving a 600-ton gantry crane and drinking a lot of Finnish coffee. He discovers that everything is oversized when you're dealing with these supercruisers.
Space Tower
The tallest skyscraper in Spain is under construction! The 700 foot tall Torre del Espacio (Space Tower) is unlike any other tall building. Danny will ascend to dizzying heights to join the crew in a week-long struggle to repair one level of the building.
Biggest Casino
Danny Forster participates in the construction of the Palazzo, Las Vegas' latest and greatest high-end hotel and casino.
Super Stadium
View the construction of the new Arizona Cardinals' Super Stadium! The NFL is betting that the Cardinals' new home will help re-brand the 'Cards' as a winner, and kick-start a new era in sports arenas - away from the nostalgia of baseball parks.
High Risk Tower
Donald Trump's new tower in Chicago, Ill., is not your ordinary skyscraper. Made entirely of reinforced concrete, it will be the tallest formwork structure on the planet. Danny helps the construction crew build the 30th floor. He also does time in the building's tower crane, and works with the "curtain team" to install some of the 8,200 windows that will enclose the tower's curving facade. They don't have much time, because Trump's International Hotel plans to open its doors in just five months' time - it's the fastest move-in ever attempted!
Turbo-Charged Boats
This week Danny travels to Palm Beach, Fla., where he links up with AMF Offshore Racing, one of the top teams in the offshore racing circuit. He'll help the team rebuild one of their battleworn boats, which must be ready to race again in just two weeks. In the pits there is no margin of error if you expect to come in first, so Danny will have to be at the top of his game.
Deepest Tunnel
Danny goes back to the future in Istanbul, Turkey, to find out how to tunnel through water - and history. The city is now home to one of the most daring engineering projects on the planet that is soon to be the third largest in the world.
Major League Stadium
In Washington, DC, 800 workers attempt to design and build a $650 million baseball stadium in less than two years. Danny Forster finds out if they can finish the 41,000-seat Nationals stadium, complete with the largest scoreboard in the US, on schedule.
