Bombing Hitler's Dams is an episode on ''NOVA'' in which Dr. Hugh Hunt enlists the help of Buffalo Airways and others in an attempt to recreate the bouncing bomb used in World War II's Operation Chastise. == Design and testing==
Dr. Hunt's goal was to create a small drum of steel, filled with concrete that could skip across water like the original bouncing bomb. The recreated "bouncing bomb" was not a live bomb (because it is illegal to drop live explosives from a civilian airplane) and weighed less than a tenth of the original. The real bouncing bomb's blueprints were lost in a 1960's flood, so Hunt's "bomb" was created from scratch. In their tests Buffalo Airways pilot Arnie Schreder flew a Douglas DC-4, with the bomb attached underneath, towards a recreation of the Möhne dam, which was specially constructed on Lake Williston, Canada for the test. The DC-4 was flown along the lake, and the bomb released when they reached a floating marker. If a bomb (5 were made, so multiple attempts could be made) was to successfully hit the fake Möhne dam, a real bomb buried in the fake dam would be detonated, blowing apart the dam.
