00:00 We are surrounded by extraordinary feats of engineering,

00:05 constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

00:09 Without engineering, there'd be no modern world.

00:13 Gigantic cities,

00:15 amazing infrastructure,

00:18 and ingenious inventions.

00:20 Engineering is the key to turn dreams into reality.

00:24 To reach these dizzying heights,

00:26 today's technology relies on breakthroughs made by ancient engineers.

00:31 It's mind-boggling how they did this.

00:34 How did early civilizations build on such a scale?

00:38 They raised the bar for construction in a way that no one thought possible.

00:42 The sheer engineering ability is in itself impressive.

00:47 By defying the known laws of physics,

00:50 and daring to dream big,

00:53 they constructed wonders of the world,

00:57 from gigantic pyramids

01:00 to awe-inspiring temples
