A recent Russian military drill had soldiers build a 1,500-foot pontoon bridge while facing (simulated) enemy fire.
Soldiers are seen scuba diving, connecting large iron frames and laying train tracks, all while battling heavy winds. The Russian military claims the bridge was built in less than an hour.
After it was built, a steam train and military equipment could finally roll over the once-impassable river in Siberia, Russia.
