If the US really wanted to take China down a notch the chance was when the high water event was happening. Strap a bomb to a SF catfish and blow that sucker up.

Seems unlikely. The crust of the Earth is less then 1% of the entire mass of the planet. That 1 dam is included in that. Makes no sense.

The flow of water affects the earths rotation so I would assume creating the largest damn in human history could mess with that

The dam they're working on near the India border is going to be something like 4x the size of Three Gorges

It must be true if scientific experts from NASA say so.

Just make sure you wear masks and social distance six feet from any other person.

It will be the largest single point of electricity generation on earth. They will then sell the electricity to India at a good price.

They will then use that cheap electricity to basically control India politically for the foreseeable future.

Short answer: Leverage

The area of the world where the dam is going is so remote that it wasn't even explored until the 1990s. Flora and fauna exists there that has never been documented. The canyon is something like 20,000 feet deep. It's deeper than the deepest canyons even in the ocean.

Some guys tried to kayak it and they canceled their trip after their leader died. Another guy tried to kayak it and died in the first mile. No one has tried it since.

Reading about it is absolutely insane

I need something other than NEXTA saying this, as it makes little sense logically.
