Our Guy in Russia is the fourth in the series of critically-acclaimed adventure travelogues hosted by popular UK lorry mechanic and television daredevil, Guy Martin. He travels from Moscow to Siberia, and as usual ignores the traditional tourist attractions – preferring instead to follow his passions to discover what everyday life is really like in Russia. He rides with the Night Wolves – President Putin’s biker gang, and goes to work in the factory that produces one of Russia’s proudest exports – the Kalashnikov machine gun, to name but a few of his adventures in Russia.

TV Show

MegaStructures is a documentary television series appearing on the National Geographic Channel in the United States and the United Kingdom, Channel 5 in the United Kingdom, France 5 in France, and 7mate in Australia. Each episode is an educational look of varying depth into the construction, operation, and staffing of various structures or construction projects, but not ordinary construction products. Generally containing interviews with designers and project managers, it presents the problems of construction and the methodology or techniques used to overcome obstacles. In some cases this involved the development of new materials or products that are now in general use within the construction industry. MegaStructures focuses on constructions that are extreme; in the sense that they are the biggest, tallest, longest, or deepest in the world. Alternatively, a project may appear if it had an element of novelty or are a world first. This type of project is known as a Megaproject.
