A ship lift is a water transportation system that uses counterweights to raise or lower ships vertically through a water-filled basin, significantly reducing transit time compared to traditional locks. The Three Gorges Ship Lift, for example, can lift a 15,000-ton ship 113 meters in just 40 minutes using 156 counterweights that perfectly balance the basin, allowing ships to sail away freely when the gates open.

Ship elevators exist all around the world — but none like this.Hinzugefügt:
This is a ship lift, which is capable to lift a 15,000 ton ship. Instead of waiting 3 to 4 hours in a traditional lock, ships ride into a giant water-filled basin, and the whole thing is raised or lowered 113 m in just 40 minutes.
Here's the genius part. The basin holding the ship is perfectly counterbalanced by 156 massive counterweights. When the basin docks at the top, the gates open, and the ship just sails away like nothing happened.
