    Fill it full of water and 20000 years from now the civilization that rises after we are gone will look at the lake and come to the conclusion that something from outer space must have smashed into the ground and eventually it filled with water. Or it was the result of a gigantic glacier. Or some other such nonsense. Remember this open pit mine when you are looking at depth charts of certain lakes around the world. Donner lake in California.... Mazinaw lake in Ontario...... Crater lake in Oregon.... The Mediterranean sea..... The gulf of Mexico.... The finger lakes in New York..... The list is endless. These are open pit mines That were filled with water. Now you may ask okay where did all the debris Get deposited When they were done digging the hole that is now the mediterranean sea. Good question. Dig out your Atlas. Look at the land to the South of that hole. We call that area the Sahara Desert. That's where they dumped everything that they didn't use. Whoever they were back then. Too far away from home? Keep in mind what you saw in this video. Now take a real good long look at the Grand Canyon. That is bedrock. That is a massive open pit mine and whatever it was they were Mining was a very clear vein of material and when they exhausted it they stopped. You want to know where they dumped the material from that particular mine? We call it the Mojave desert. Before you dismiss what I'm saying pull up the charts in the maps that show the different levels of depth in these bodies of water. And take a good long look at what you are seeing and compare it to this operation that you just watched. That is not coincidence. We know nothing at all about the real history of the environment that we find ourselves living in. Nothing.

    Americans and their inflated claims. You are looking at rather a small hole, only 1200m deep. It is also a British Company that owns the mine. I know you murcans like to tell everyone what America owns, and it is NOT this mine. Is this hole bigger than the Marianas Trench? They always make themselves look rather dim. The title does not qualify the fact that is is a man made hole. Thus, there are millions of holes on the earth that is bigger than this mine.

      @@NorfKhazad they have always told us that if trucks collide it’s safer to not have the cabs meet. Also, if you notice in this video, the far side of the truck is next to the berm while traveling, easier to run over rocks at the bottom of the berm if you’re not paying attention or miss judge the distance and cause tire damage. Another advantage that comes to mind is when you’re driving left-hand traffic and you’re on the left side going down the ramp you’re able to easily see over the pit edge berm and see everything going on in the mine. Keeps you aware of any changes that are happening at the bottom or even up higher. I’ve worked at four different mines all have been left hand traffic. I wouldn’t mind trying right hand traffic at all though. would probably feel really weird at first lol

We saw one of those haulers up close and after a sweet young lady climbed down out of the cab, I got a picture of her and I standing next to one of those 6 plus feet tires.

And, to be clear, Bingham Canyon mine did start as a canyon. I think it you were to look at total dirt removed there would be larger operations somewhere in the world.
