How India Split the Himalayas to Build the World’s Highest Tunnel

At 3,500 meters, atop the "Roof of the World," a 14km steel nail is being driven into the heart of the mountains. The Zoji La Pass, once a death sentence of isolation, is being conquered by India’s massive Himalayan project. This is more than Himalayas tunnel construction; it is a battle for survival, sovereignty, and the defiance of nature.

How do you bore through a mountain range that is still moving? Discover How India built the Zoji La tunnel using "adaptive surgery"—rejecting giant robots for precision explosives to tame the world’s most volatile strata. As one of the world’s highest tunnels and soon the longest tunnel in India, it redefines the limits of human endurance.

Massive Minds takes you behind the scenes—where raw rock, precision engineering, and human courage come together to create a lifeline where none should exist.
