The Philippine Star
December 24, 2008 | 12:00am

National Geographic Channel’s 10-part series, World’s Toughest Fixes, showing this month until January next year, takes urban city walkers who are fond of small gadgets inside some of the most daunting repair jobs imaginable.

It features a rupture in a jetliner’s pressure dome, a nuclear power plant turbine that needs to be replaced, a cruise ship that needs another engine and others.

Each one-hour episode follows Sean Riley as he pushes himself to the limit while working with some of the world’s top mechanics, showing viewers how these challenging fixes are tackled.
