Synopsis
Have you ever wondered how massive city skyscrapers are demolished? How is solid rock turned into a beautiful, smooth pool table? What are car tyres made from and exactly why are plasma TV screens flat?
From armoured cars to the world's smelliest cheese, come explore the fascinating world of stuff in an all-new season of How Do They Do It?.
Eating, drinking, driving and flying – these are all activities that we carry out without giving them a second thought.
But have you ever wondered what exactly goes into your teabag and how it got there? And how exactly does an airport handle hundreds of thousands of items of luggage each day?
Every day we come into contact with technology, be it in the bathroom, in the car or on the golf course.
How Do They Do It? takes a look at how things work and focuses on some of the most amazing examples of everyday objects, including the world’s fastest elevator and the most expensive chocolate money can buy.
