This mountain canal hangs a hundred meters high—and still brings water d... (Grandpa Kimo channel)

This irrigation channel, named Dafa Channel by the locals in honour of Huang Dafa, was built between 1958 and 1994 as per the Daily Mail website. It says over 200 people helped build it using chisel's and explosives! It is 4,101 feet in the mountainous of remote Guizhou Province, Caowangba Village, where the people had to walk to get water from other places. Huang Dafa was elected as the head of the Caowangba Village in 1958, and didn't know about water irrigation, so the water didn't flow.

In 1989 at the age of 54, Mr Huang studied water-system engineering in the Fengxiang Water Conservation Bureau in Zunyi city. Mr Huang, equipped with his irrigation knowledge, decided to re-start digging his channel a second time, in 1990, with help from the county authorities to supply the project with 60,000 yuan (£6,800) and 190,000 kilograms (420,000 pounds) of corn. Villagers also helped with money, and it was completed in 1994 is what the Daily Mail says. (I can not put a link on here or YouTube will remove it).
