One of the most popular videos on the net was filmed in Brazil, where an excavator showed his talent in cleaning the bottom of a river.

Together with the excavator, he went down to the bottom of the river under his own power, did the necessary work there, and with the help of a truck again went up the river.

The scenes were filmed in Itapeva, Sao Paulo, Brazil. The video, which was uploaded to YouTube, has been viewed by about 10 million people to date.

Excavators are heavy equipment for construction, earthworks and mining. The first excavators were driven by steam engines, while modern excavators are driven by diesel engines driven by hydraulic mechanisms.
