Big thank you to Cisco for sponsoring this video and sponsoring my trip to the Cisco Partner Summit San Diego 2025

Imagine trying to run a high-tech hospital inside a giant steel box while floating off the coast of Africa. In this video, we explore the insane engineering challenges behind Mercy Ships from battling Faraday cages to fixing cut fiber cables mid-surgery.
