From the hilarious to the mind-boggling, from the deadly to the
bank-busting, this series showcases some of the most outrageous structural
disasters and the genius resolutions to get things back on track. Blunders
explored this season include a waterfront building in England that has
created a wind tunnel so strong, pedestrians have been blown over; the
Carrier Dome in snowy Syracuse that has a soft top roof requiring workers to
climb atop with hot water hoses to prevent collapse every time snow falls; a
Brazilian highway that is so close to tall buildings that neighborhood
residents are concerned about hearing loss
