Batten down the hatches and strap yourself in…World's Toughest Fixes is taking on a job that brings power to the people - assembling a giant wind turbine. Getting this monster machine off the ground means lifting three massive parts to the top of a 220 foot tower --- one weighing as much as an Abrams Tank - another whose combined length is as long as a football field. Prepare to be blown away by high winds, heavy loads and high wire rigging as the crew wrestles nature to deliver the dream of energy independence to the community of Portsmouth, Rhode Island.

Riley heads to a diver's paradise in Curacao, but this underwater adventure is no vacation. He and a team of top-notch industrial divers are in for some serious heavy lifting - rigging and removing a 50-ton rudder from a massive iron ore carrier bound for China. Riley's a master rigger on land, but on this job he's a fish out of water. Running against the clock, with millions at stake, this is one the biggest underwater repair jobs ever attempted -- for Riley, it's perhaps his toughest fix yet.

Pēdējā ledus laikmeta beigās pirmie cilvēki migrēja uz Ameriku. Daži uzskata, ka ceļoja pa sauszemi, bet tagad arheologi raugās uz krastu. Un ko Meksikas džungļos atrastais 13 000 gadus vecais skelets atklāj mums par šiem cilvēkiem un viņu pasauli? Nosusinot dziļo pazemes alu, mēs atklājam jaunu zinātni, kas pārraksta episko stāstu par pirmajiem cilvēkiem, kuri dzīvoja Jaunajā pasaulē.

Māksliniece no Atlantas uzzina, kā viņas senči 1812. gada kara laikā izbēga no verdzības un pievienojās britu ienaidnieku spēkiem, kuri beigās nodedzināja Balto namu. Tikmēr vienā no Češapīkas līča pietekām amatieris arheologs izdara savas dzīves lielāko atklājumu, atrodot amerikāņu flagmaņa vraku, kas vadīja nolemtus pretošanās spēkus cīņā pret ienaidnieku.

Alberts Lins ir devies meklējumos, lai atklātu seno zudušo maiju pilsētu, kurā savulaik dzīvoja cilvēki, kas uzcēluši dižo piramīdu pilsētu Palenkē. Nodrošinātam ar jaunākajām skenēšanas tehnoloģijām, viņam ir jāizlaužas cauri senajiem neskartajiem džungļiem, jānopeld līdz tumšas zemes bedres dibenam un jānolaižas ar ūdenslīdēju milzu kalna sirdī, lai atklātu to neticamo izcelsmes stāstu.

Tālajos Sudānas tuksnešos Alberts Lins dodas meklēt pazudušo Kušas karaļvalsts galvaspilsētu, kuras valdnieki reiz iekaroja un pārvaldīja seno Ēģiptes impēriju. Nodrošināta ar skenēšanas tehnoloģiju, kas Sudānā līdz šim arheoloģijā nekad nav izmantota, Alberta ekspedīcija aizved viņu līdz applūdušai kapavietai zem 2500 gadus senas piramīdas un svētajam kalnam, kas, kā uzskata, ir dievu dzimtene.

Pētnieks Alberts Lins Peru Andos meklē zudušo Čačapojas karalisti - aizmirstu civilizāciju mākoņos, kas valdīja gandrīz 1000 gadus pirms inku iebrukuma. Alberta ekspedīcija aizvedīs viņu no mežonīgām krācēm līdz bieziem Andu mākoņu mežiem, izmantojot viņa neparasto tehniku, lai atklātu zudušo mākoņu karavīru pasauli.

Mūsu ēras pirmais gadsimts, un romieši dominē lielā daļā zināmās pasaules. Taču viņu plānus iekarot Skotiju izjauc barbaru nemiernieku banda, ko sauc par piktiem. Pētnieks Alberts Lins pārvar jūras klintis, pēta alas, peld pa krācēm un izmanto augsto tehnoloģiju skenerus, lai atklātu pazudušo karalisti, kas var sniegt atbildi uz jautājumu, kā noslēpumainie piktieši ir vainojami pie viena no lielākajiem sava laika militārajiem apvērsumiem.

Just after taking off, Air Florida Flight 90 plunges into the frozen Potomac River. It takes an ingenious experiment to uncover why it happened.

Ceļā no Singapūras uz Pērtu Qantas Airways 72. reisa lidmašīna pēkšņi nokrīt virs Indijas okeāna. Pēkšņais G spēks ir tik spēcīgs, ka pasažieri tiek pacelti no sēdekļiem. Pilotu kabīnes displejā parādās virkne brīdinājumu par ātruma pārsniegšanu un lidojuma pārrāvumu, un ir skaidrs, ka kaut kas ir briesmīgi nogājis no sliedēm. Pieredzējušam iznīcinātāja pilotam, kapteinim izdodas droši nolaist lidmašīnu. Austrālijas izmeklētājiem ir jāatklāj noslēpumainais un potenciāli nāvējošais darbības traucējums, kas apdraud vienu no pasaulē populārākajām lidmašīnām.

Ceļā no Amsterdamas uz Kārdifu Velsā KLM Cityhopper reisa Nr. 433 apkalpe ziņo par dzinēja problēmu un dodas atpakaļ uz lidostu. Taču mirkli pirms nosēšanās ar divu turbopropelleru lidmašīna strauji sasveras pa labi, spārns ietriecas zemē, un lidmašīna avarē un pārlūzt lidlaukā blakus skrejceļam. No 24 cilvēkiem, kas bija lidmašīnā, bojā iet divi pasažieri un lidmašīnas kapteinis. Kad izmeklētāji no Nīderlandes Drošības padomes izanalizē pierādījumus, viņi konstatē, ka neliela problēma elektroshēmā izraisīja liktenīgo kļūdu ķēdi.

New fossils are revealing that the life of T rex and his cousins was brutal with devastating injuries as routine.

Downtown Dubai’s Burj Khalifa is the ultimate skyscraper. At more than half a mile high, this towering vertical city not only challenges conventional architecture but also set numerous world records, including the tallest building on Earth. This episode uses state-of-the-art computer graphics and expert testimony to reveal how this mind-blowing tower was made.

Grab your hard hats and load up on coffee, World's Toughest Fixes is working the night shift in Salt Lake City, Utah. We have just three days to pull off the nearly impossible; lift a 300 thousand pound bridge between two buildings with mere inches to spare. There's no room for error on this fix. This lift is chock full of obstacles. We're working in the middle of downtown on Main Street, we've got a commuter train running through our worksite, power lines all around, 5-stories of parking garages beneath our feet, two massive cranes working in tandem, and all work has to be done in the dead of night. It's fair to say the conditions here are less than ideal. It's going to take a miracle and a lot of hard work to pull off this fix.

Grab your sunglasses… This week on World's Toughest Fixes we're going to harness the sun to drive the only operating solar reflective power tower in the United States. This show is definitely not for the superstitious as Riley joins a crew lifting two 65 ton boilers 160 feet up to two towers and suspending them above 24,000 mirrors… One slip up and it's going to be way more than seven years bad luck.

It's Riley's biggest fix ever! A machine seventeen miles around - worth seven billion dollars! The Large Hadron Collider is the largest atom-smasher ever built - a colossal scientific instrument buried three hundred feet underground, spanning two countries, designed to recreate conditions a billionth of a second after the Big Bang. It could be our key to unlocking the secrets of the universe - except for one tiny thing: it's broken. Nine months ago the world watched as this mother of all atom-smashers almost self-destructed. Now Riley has an exclusive inside view - repairing the final critical component of the Large Hadron Collider and restarting the greatest scientific adventure since we landed a man on the Moon.

Under the seas lives a lost graveyard of sunken war ships. Countless vessels from WWI and WWII pepper the seafloor. Among those, some of the most powerful weapons ever built. But with the evidence lost deep beneath the waves, these stories remain cloaked in mystery. Who won the battle of Jutland? And how did a scuttling in Scapa Flow lead to Nazi Germanys advancement in wartime submarines? Scientific data combines with computer graphic will help investigate the lost wrecks of WWI and WWII.

Arheologi Oregonas piekrastē pēta kuģa atliekas, kas nogrima pirms vairāk nekā trīssimt gadiem. Amerikas pamatiedzīvotāju mutvārdu stāsti vēsta par kuģa bojāeju un izdzīvojušajiem. Kuģa porcelāns un bišu vasks joprojām tiek izskaloti krastā. Arheologi rekonstruē nogrimušo vraku, izmantojot vēsturiskos datus un savas zināšanas, atklājot, kā šis milzīgais kuģis pārvadāja simtiem tonnu kravas gandrīz pāri puspasaulei.

Kuģi jau tūkstošgadi ceļojuši pa Melno jūru, pārpilnu noslēpumiem, mītiem, leģendām un diženām impērijām. Tās dziļākajos ūdeņos nav dzīvības, saglabājot kuģu vrakus, kas paver logu uz bagāto vēsturi. Melnās jūras nosusināšana atklāj seno dzīļu spoku noslēpumus, kā jūras flote tika sašķaidīta gabalos vien 30 minūtēs un kur meklējama Hitlera zaudētās U laivas pēdējā atdusas vieta.

Reperu, superslavenu atlētu, miljonāru un miljardieru iecienītais The Bentley Continental GT. Pēc vairāk nekā desmit gadus ilgiem panākumiem ražotājam ir no jauna jāatklāj savs ikoniskais automobilis – uzturot tādu pašu greznību un prestižu. Nepieciešams inovatīvs aizstājējs, lai saglabātu viena no izcilākajiem GT autoražotājiem statusu! Mašīna, kas paredzēta augstas veiktspējas pārmērībai un fizikas pamatlikumu pārvarēšanai – Huyara. 764 zirgspēku hiperauto, kas dzimis tikai viena cilvēka – Horācija Pagani (Horacio Pagani) – vīzijā. Šīs automašīnas ir burvīgas skulptūras un automobiļu šedevri.

Ferrari un Lamborghini ar saviem jaunākajiem superauto – Ferrari Portofino un Lamborghini Aventador SVJ – sacenšas jaunā laikmetā.

Auto pasaule strauji attīstās! Aston Martin nevar atļauties pieļaut vairāk kļūdu. Tie ir pēdējie patiesi neatkarīgie automobiļi un slaveni zīmoli, kas cīnās, lai saglabātu savu nozīmi konglomerāta virzītajā automobiļu visumā. Lai izdzīvotu automobiļu nozarē, viņiem ir jāpārstrādā sava leģendārā mašīna – 715 zirgspēku V12 DBS Superleggera. Un Porsche sacenšas ar konkurentiem un laiku, rekordātri mēģinot radikāli pārveidot 21. gadsimta zīmolu un iepazīstinot ar savu pirmo pilnībā elektrisko transportlīdzekli – Taycan. Tā ir inženiertehniskā ceļojuma pārtraukšana, kas rada potenciālu no jauna atklāt automobiļu nozari un tajā pašā laikā saglabāt savu prestižu. Ja šīs mašīnas cietīs neveiksmi, divi no slavenākajām un atzītākajām autosporta zīmoliem varētu arī piedzīvot norietu.

Ar Brazīlijas Chapecoense futbola komandu uz klāja LaMia reiss Nr. 2933 veic noslēguma tuvošanās manevru Medeljinai Kolumbijā, kad apkalpe pēkšņi ziņo par avārijas situāciju degvielas padeves sistēmā. Pirms gaisa satiksmes kontroles personāls ir paspējis atbrīvot ceļu, lidmašīna ietriecas kalnā, nogalinot gandrīz visus uz klāja esošos cilvēkus. Futbola pasaulei sērojot par notikušo, izmeklētāji izjūt milzīgu spiedienu noskaidrot, kas notika. Analizējot pierādījumus, viņi atklāj satraucošu stāstu par alkatību un risku, kas novedis pie traģiskām sekām.

Agrs rīta lidojums no Leksingtonas Kentuki štatā beidzas ar katastrofu – divu dzinēju lidmašīna uz asfaltētās šosejas sasveras.

It's a foggy day at Ireland's Cork Airport and the pilots of Manx2 Flight 7100 are circling the airport waiting for the weather to clear. After controllers clear the turboprop commuter plane for landing, the pilots reduce their speed and descend, but the aircraft suddenly goes into a severe roll and crashes into the runway. It's the deadliest crash in Ireland in decades, and it's up to the Irish Air Accident Investigation Unit to figure out what went wrong. They soon discover the fog is only part of the story, and the investigation reveals a startling gap in aviation safety that has put passengers' lives at risk.

In 2001, satellite imagery captured a mysterious “thermal anomaly” on an unexplored volcano at the ends of the earth. What lies inside could provide new clues to help predict volcanic eruptions around the globe. But the island is so remote… and conditions are so extreme… no one has ever been able to reach the top to investigate what lies inside. Until now.

A team of elite climbers confront their grief, doubt and fear on a 150-mile journey from Myanmar to a remote peak at the edge of the world.

Explorer examines man's obsession to uncover ancient civilizations. From Cortez to 20th century archeologists to today's adventurers, there's a craving to be the first to discover who and what came before us. And some of those who explored these most remote of places lost everything… their money, their families and even their lives. Explorer joins filmmaker and adventurer Steve Elkins on his quest for the mythical "Lost White City" or "City of the Monkey God" in the Mosquitia rainforests of Honduras. Legend has it that the ancient city was laden with gold and that residents lived a life of luxury. But even after countless resources, hundreds of miles trekked through the jungle and 20 years of searching, Elkins finds nothing… until 2012. He and his team flew over the rainforest canopy in a helicopter using advanced lidar laser technology to map what was hidden beneath the jungle. They discovered what seemed to be man-made structures. And so, they return with a full excavation and archaeological team. We watch them begin the latest search for the White City, launching a massive ground expedition. They examine structures up close and reveal never-before-seen artifacts to determine if this is in fact a lost civilization… and if so, whose? Woven into this modern-day expedition, we tell the story of Theodore Morde: journalist, spy who claimed to have discovered the Lost White City. In 1940, Morde trekked for months through the Mosquitia and came out of the jungle to worldwide praise. But Morde's story only fuels the mystery surrounding the Lost White City. Morde died of suicide years later without ever uncovering the location of the alleged discovery.

Explorer takes viewers around the world on the hunt for blood antiquities. Otherwise known as conflict antiquities or loot, these items have been known to fund genocide, terrorism and organized crime. Looting is nothing new, from Egyptian tombs, to Angkor antiquities, to Mayan ruins, to WWII relics-looting is as old as art. Looters can be opportunistic civilians trying to make a buck or entire regimes funding war. Buyers are just as diverse: from wealthy art collectors to well-known auction houses and museums. Liberal laws have allowed antiquities to circulate the art world-with a don't ask, don't tell policy-keeping stolen artifacts under the radar. The anti-looting laws that do exist are not universal and are often not enforced. But ISIS has changed the game. The looting of Syrian antiquities may be one of their main sources of funding and a major platform for propaganda. Their looting of Syria is violently erasing our shared cultural heritage and more importantly, a horrifying realization has starting to penetrate the public consciousness: buyers in Europe and America are helping to finance the most macabre terrorist group of the century.

From Indonesian tribes who mummify their dead relatives and live with them, to Tibetans who chop up their loved ones and feed their body parts to vultures, to Malaysian natives who dig up the dead bodies of their family members, EXPLORER looks at the world's most unusual approaches to dying, death and rituals of the corpse.

The New Air Force One: Flying Fortress follows the new presidential aircraft's creation, diving into how it transformed into a top-secret command center.

In January 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 took off from New Yorks LaGuardia Airport en route to Charlotte, North Carolina. Within minutes a double bird strike destroyed both engines, and the crew made the terrifying decision to pitch the Airbus A320 into the Hudson River. Using intimate and emotive interviews as well as large-scale dramatic reconstructions, this program reveals that the crash was merely the beginning of the passengers fight for survival.

Tuesday, September 11, , a temperate and nearly cloudless morning over the eastern United States. Millions of men and women ready themselves for work. Among them is an air traffic controller in Boston, Mass. Based on sheer intuition, he will break all protocol this morning, alerting the Air Force that a potential disaster is unfolding on his radar screen. Air Force Colonel Bob Marr, commander NEADS (North East Air Defense Sector] will scramble all he has to try and avert a catastrophe - but it will consist of only two F-15's that begin "searching for a needle in a haystack". Meanwhile, a group of 19 young men armed with simple box cutters literally fly under the radar into the World Trade Center , The Pentagon, and a Pennsylvania field. From the viewpoint of these two key theaters of action, Air Traffic Control and the U.S. Air Force, "Seconds From Disaster: 9/11" deconstructs, second-by-second, the tragic events and security lapses that led to the worst attacks on American soil since Pearl Harbor. The episode contains chilling testimony from the Air Force Colonel Bob Marr , Air Traffic Controller Dave Bottiglia, Ben Sliney, the man who makes the call to ground all the planes in the air over the U.S. and John Farmer Senior Counsel for the Presidential Commission. The question has to be asked: even on the day, could 9/11 been stopped.

On 3 April, 1974, the United States' 'Tornado Alley' region experiences the full force of Mother Nature's raw power when a single storm system causes an astonishing 148 tornadoes to touch down in thirteen states in just one day. Several of these storms are F-5 strength, the strongest storms on Earth with winds up to 511 kilometres per hour. The tornadoes rip through quiet rural communities and bustling towns, leaving paths of destruction in their wake. When the weather finally clears, 330 people are dead and more than 5,400 people are injured, causing more than US $660 million in damage. Top meteorologists from around the country must work together to identify how all of these tornadoes could have developed in hopes of creating better warning systems. What they find revolutionizes understanding of a tornado's structure and modernizes tornado warning procedures.

And how did a scuttling in Scapa Flow lead to Nazi Germanys advancement in wartime submarines? Scientific data combines with computer graphic will help investigate the lost wrecks of WWI and WWII.

Kuģi jau tūkstošgadi ceļojuši pa Melno jūru, pārpilnu noslēpumiem, mītiem, leģendām un diženām impērijām. Tās dziļākajos ūdeņos nav dzīvības, saglabājot kuģu vrakus, kas paver logu uz bagāto vēsturi. Melnās jūras nosusināšana atklāj seno dzīļu spoku noslēpumus, kā jūras flote tika sašķaidīta gabalos vien 30 minūtēs un kur meklējama Hitlera zaudētās U laivas pēdējā atdusas vieta.

Batten down the hatches and strap on your hard hat as World's Toughest Fixes joins a crew of 1200 as they haul a leaking luxury liner out of the water and fix it. The 856-foot long cruise ship has just about the biggest problem a ship can face: she's taking on water. And no one knows exactly what's leaking. Riley heads to San Francisco Bay where hundreds of workers have just 15 days to tear this mega ship apart, dive into the belly of the beast and find the leak. They'll have to work around the clock to fix it because in just two weeks 2000 new guests who've paid for the vacation of a lifetime will be ready to set to sea. There'll be a lot of disappointed vacationers demanding their money back if the ship isn't fixed on time. Reputations and a boat-load of money are on the line.

Hang on tight and don't look down as World's Toughest Fixes scales the iconic bridges of the UK: the world-famous Tower Bridge in London, and two bridges in Scotland -- the historic Forth Bridge and, right next door, the Forth Road Bridge. It's three bridges, three big problems, three tough fixes. In London, it's the famous Tower Bridge, with a serious lead contamination problem. In Scotland, it's all high access. Riley will help construct scaffolding from the top down, 367 feet above the water, dangling on a pole over speeding trains. And on an aging suspension bridge, Riley's rappelling down a 296-foot suspender cable, swinging in mid-air to run data cables to a high-tech monitoring system. It's a tour of some of the biggest fixes across the pond, meeting the men who are taking on the hazards to get the job done, on World's Toughest Fixes.

This week we're heading for the hills of Cody, Wyoming to rebuild one of the first ski lifts in the country. But this is no ordinary fix.

It's one of the world's most notorious unsolved skyjackings and missing person cases…and new evidence is leading the FBI to reopen their files with the belief it might finally be solved. The night before Thanksgiving, 1971, a man by the name of Dan Cooper boarded Northwest Orient Airlines flight 305 from Portland to Seattle. Several hours later, with $200,000 strapped to his body, he leapt from the plane - and into history. A reporter botched the name of the culprit, and D.B. Cooper was born. A collection of suspects and clues have emerged - a copycat crime, a bag full of Cooper's bills discovered in 1980, a deathbed confessional - but all leads have proven inconclusive. But the past year or so has seen a flurry of new clues. In 2007, new evidence emerged from a man who claims that his deceased brother - a Northwest employee and Army paratrooper - was the real D.B. Cooper. Then, in March 2008, a parachute turned up on a field where Cooper could have landed that matched the one he used. Meanwhile, new evidence released by the FBI in the past few months is generating new theories - and suspects. As the FBI reopens the case, we'll follow the same evidence trail to find out if this new information could finally bring this notorious case to a close.

Sean Riley races the clock to dam up a river and replace one of the locks that regulates water levels in a busy cargo thoroughfare. One wrong move and half a million litres of water could be unleashed.

Strap yourself in for this one, because this is definitely out of this world. For this fix, we're going satellite launching. Delivering this piece of high-tech equipment into space will take a rocket the size of a twelve-story building and an enormous amount of firepower… and it's a job that'll be done from one of the most remote places on the planet: French Guiana. This South American department of France is just a short distance from the equator, but it's a long way from the modern world. As the clock winds down to zero, Riley is positioned for a bird's eye view of what's definitely one of the most spectacular sights on earth - a rocket roaring into space.

Egypt is home to many of the most famous archaeological treasures on Earth. But over the last five years, Egypt has suffered a tumultuous revolution and tourist numbers have plummeted. This programme follows a select cast of individuals, determined to bring Egypt back from the brink: to discover more of Egypt's history, to keep its heritage safe and to get tourists to visit the country again. Dr John Ward and Dr Maria Nilsson are a young charismatic couple who return year after year to a site in the south of the country, Gebel el Silsila. Dr Tarek Tawfik is a professor of archaeology tasked with running the biggest building project on the Giza plateau since the pyramids themselves: the Grand Egyptian Museum. Nora Shawki is a 26 year old PhD student exploring her first dig site in the Nile Delta, and Eddy Cannaerts is one of 5000 contractors working on the Grand Egyptian Museum, desperate to keep his build schedule on track. Together they are all hoping to get Egypt back on track, and bring the tourists back.

Inside the ancient Egyptian necropolis of Saqqara, Dr Ramadan Hussein and his team work to uncover a unique tomb complex. Ramadan is intrigued by a wall at the bottom of the 100 foot shaft. A hunch tells him it could be a hidden burial chamber. What secrets could it hold? The team have to work fast to remove the unstable rock, but their risky search leads them to one of the biggest discoveries of the dig so far.

In the newly discovered tomb complex at Saqqara, one burial chamber stands out. It holds a single, stone sarcophagus while the rest are packed with mummies. Dr Ramadan Hussein and his team face their biggest challenge yet as they battle to lift the 5 ton lid and reveal the mummy within. Using forensic investigation techniques and the latest technology, what secrets can they discover about the tomb's 2600-year old owner.

Archaeology is like detective work, and never more so when you discover a 12 tonne sarcophagus with its seal broken, and a lid that isn't flush with the base. From the gaps in the mortar, Dr Ramadan Hussein has a hunch that the lid was removed and replaced in antiquity. But why? Ramadan and his team investigate the evidence at this potential crime scene to discover what - or who - remains inside.

Dr Allan Maca explores a newly discovered ancient megacity that 4000 years ago was one of the biggest on the planet. Its people created amazing Maya-like carvings like nothing ever found in China before. There's also grizzly evidence of human sacrifice on an unprecedented scale. This lost civilisation changes everything we thought we knew about the origins of China, but why, after 500 years, did they vanish? Allan and his team investigate ancient cataclysms to try to solve this great mystery.

A surprising number of the rulers we know from the dynasties of ancient Egypt were women. Some ruled as queens but some as kings or pharaohs. Two are household names -- Nefertiti and Cleopatra – but two others are lesser-known – Hatshepsut and Nefertari. All were remarkable in the way they rose to power, and left their mark on a land typically dominated by men.

High in the Peruvian Andes, the 60-foot stone walls of Kuelap Fortress are filled with the bones of a vanished people called the Chachapoya. In 2007 over a hundred bodies were discovered, their bones desecrated and buried without reverence. Newly discovered scientific clues set the stage to unravel this ancient 'who done it' mystery.

History is full of revolutions, industrial, sexual and the big one, political. And each one starts in a different way. Every once in a while, holding hands and singing can be more effective than tanks and barricades. But even if your cause and motives are pure to begin with, how can you still end up on the wrong side of history.

Empires and lives have been won and lost over secrets kept and secrets revealed. We look at espionage; meeting spies from Delilah to Roald Dahl and along the way revealing the real model for James Bond. What does it take to make them successful? And how many people can know a secret before it isn’t secret anymore.

Our modern world didn’t just happen it was invented through inspiration, perseverance and dumb luck. We learn that great inventors often build their ideas on the shoulders of those that went before or just steal them. And it’s not always clear who came up with every world changing invention, even TV.

Throughout history, men and women have dedicated themselves to raking in as much wealth as possible; old money, new money, even blood money. But from Robber Barons to Mansa Musa of Mali; how did they get it and how did they spend it? And in the end, were they happier than the rest of us.

Grab your sunglasses… This week on World's Toughest Fixes we're going to harness the sun to drive the only operating solar reflective power tower in the United States. This show is definitely not for the superstitious as Riley joins a crew lifting two 65 ton boilers 160 feet up to two towers and suspending them above 24,000 mirrors… One slip up and it's going to be way more than seven years bad luck.

It's Riley's biggest fix ever! A machine seventeen miles around - worth seven billion dollars! The Large Hadron Collider is the largest atom-smasher ever built - a colossal scientific instrument buried three hundred feet underground, spanning two countries, designed to recreate conditions a billionth of a second after the Big Bang. It could be our key to unlocking the secrets of the universe - except for one tiny thing: it's broken. Nine months ago the world watched as this mother of all atom-smashers almost self-destructed. Now Riley has an exclusive inside view - repairing the final critical component of the Large Hadron Collider and restarting the greatest scientific adventure since we landed a man on the Moon.

From dangling from ropes high up in the air to diving beneath a shaky bridge, Sean Riley will try anything to complete his latest fixes.

Riley joins engineers at the Paranal Observatory in Chile to move a 23-ton, $15-million mirror. If damaged, it will take six years to replace.

The attack on Pearl Harbor took the US fleet by surprise and went down in history books. But draining the islands of Hawai?i using the latest scanning techniques not only reveals the advanced technology of secret Japanese subs and fighter planes that enabled the enemy to sink US battleships, but that the battle itself started far earlier and was far wider ranging than anyone ever knew before.

From Indonesian tribes who mummify their dead relatives and live with them, to Tibetans who chop up their loved ones and feed their body parts to vultures, to Malaysian natives who dig up the dead bodies of their family members, EXPLORER looks at the world's most unusual approaches to dying, death and rituals of the corpse.

In 2001, satellite imagery captured a mysterious “thermal anomaly” on an unexplored volcano at the ends of the earth. What lies inside could provide new clues to help predict volcanic eruptions around the globe. But the island is so remote… and conditions are so extreme… no one has ever been able to reach the top to investigate what lies inside. Until now.

The New Air Force One: Flying Fortress follows the new presidential aircraft's creation, diving into how it transformed into a top-secret command center.

In January 2009, US Airways Flight 1549 took off from New Yorks LaGuardia Airport en route to Charlotte, North Carolina. Within minutes a double bird strike destroyed both engines, and the crew made the terrifying decision to pitch the Airbus A320 into the Hudson River. Using intimate and emotive interviews as well as large-scale dramatic reconstructions, this program reveals that the crash was merely the beginning of the passengers fight for survival.

Tuesday, September 11, , a temperate and nearly cloudless morning over the eastern United States. Millions of men and women ready themselves for work. Among them is an air traffic controller in Boston, Mass. Based on sheer intuition, he will break all protocol this morning, alerting the Air Force that a potential disaster is unfolding on his radar screen. Air Force Colonel Bob Marr, commander NEADS (North East Air Defense Sector] will scramble all he has to try and avert a catastrophe - but it will consist of only two F-15's that begin "searching for a needle in a haystack". Meanwhile, a group of 19 young men armed with simple box cutters literally fly under the radar into the World Trade Center , The Pentagon, and a Pennsylvania field. From the viewpoint of these two key theaters of action, Air Traffic Control and the U.S. Air Force, "Seconds From Disaster: 9/11" deconstructs, second-by-second, the tragic events and security lapses that led to the worst attacks on American soil since Pearl Harbor. The episode contains chilling testimony from the Air Force Colonel Bob Marr , Air Traffic Controller Dave Bottiglia, Ben Sliney, the man who makes the call to ground all the planes in the air over the U.S. and John Farmer Senior Counsel for the Presidential Commission. The question has to be asked: even on the day, could 9/11 been stopped.
