The Vajont Dam disaster, one of the most tragic engineering failures in history, occurred on October 9, 1963, in Northern Italy. Initially hailed as an engineering marvel, the Vajont Dam was constructed in a valley known for its geological instability. The disaster unfolded when a massive landslide from Monte Toc plunged into the reservoir, resulting in a mega-tsunami that overtopped the dam. The colossal wave, estimated at 250 meters high, swept through the Piave Valley below, obliterating towns like Longarone and claiming an estimated 1,900 to 2,500 lives. The catastrophe was not merely a natural disaster but a result of human oversight and ignored warnings. Despite the dam's structural survival, the event left a lasting impact on engineering, risk assessment, and disaster management practices. This video delves into the causes, the harrowing event, and the profound aftermath of the Vajont Dam disaster. Join us as we explore the lessons learned from this heartbreaking chapter in history.
