yesterday i watched this show and as soon as i heard the idea i knew straight away the problems he would face and how to encounter them
straight frmo the beggining i knew he would need to attach metal straight poles onthe side i knew he would need to use a form of netting to hold the air ship
i knew he would need to use a sort of threaded rope instead of a steel chain

There was one thing that was a disaster waiting to happen which is he used plastic to hold 9 tons on the airship but the problem is not the strength but they use copper wires wraped around the plastic
I can just imagine the copper wire overheating and causing the plastic to melt and rip off....

That program makes me angry.  They always have a "non-expected" problem or a ridiculous experiment to make it more exciting.

Did you see the one where they tried to plant trees by dropping the seeds from a helicopter at the right height and speed to get them spread by the right amount? They could have just spaced them out on the ground wil a belt and a hole in it
