I was watching a show called Modern Marvels. It showed wooden pipes
from long ago. It also showed wooden pilings being driven for New Orleans.
Wooden pilings have been holding Venice, Italy up for hundreds of years.

Anyhow, a couple links if anyone is interested.

When I moved to my neighborhood, there was still the remains of an old
steel rod wrapped wood pipe visible along one of my jogging paths. I was
probably 1 ft. ID, wrapped with 1/4" steel at about 4" of pipe per wrap.

Looks like Ancient Aliens replaced Modern Marvels.
