Transcript

It's not just an engine. It's a real power plant floating in the ocean to power a ship the size of a football field. You need an engine as tall as a 10-story building. These giant machines generate over 100,000 horsepower. Their design is similar to a car engine, but on a massive scale. Each cylinder is bigger than an entire car, and the pistons can weigh hundreds of pounds. But getting this monster going is another story. How does it run on heavy fuel? To diesel. Starting it is as simple as turning a car key.
