What If the Three Gorges Dam Fails? 10 billion cubic meters released, destruction like a tsunami

"The Three Gorges Dam, the largest in the world, has been steeped in controversy since the day it was conceived. Even during its planning, leading engineers fiercely opposed it. Among them was China’s most respected hydrologist, Huang Wanli, who pleaded with the government for just 30 minutes to explain why it should never be built. His request was denied. Until his last breath, Huang insisted the project was a disaster waiting to happen.

He left behind 12 chilling predictions: levee failures downstream, blocked waterways, mass resettlement crises, sediment buildup, worsening water quality, insufficient power output, abnormal climate patterns, recurring earthquakes, the spread of deadly parasites, ecological destruction, catastrophic upstream flooding, and ultimately—the dam bursting under its own weight. Eleven of these warnings have already proven true, with only the final nightmare still looming.
