Mike's in China- Riding the world's fastest train

[PikalaxALT]

It's not supersonic. It's actually only Mach .35

[maz3507]

Der tgv könnte 517 km/h fahren , aber das währe unwirtschaftlich! Sagt sncf !!!

[quangluu96]

It's a levitated train D: its like anti gravity from the track maknig it travel fast

[fdoca]

Now China has a 502km ph train recently.

China is developing a vaccum train, its save, can go 1,000km ph and more.

[Chris58851]

@fdoca Not right now. Now they have billions of debt and liability. They would built conventional high-speed rail instead and intercity Maglev project had cancelled. By the way it is still a challenge when China is going to built a rail connected to Singapore.

[tillytinkerbelle]

OMG

[yzhang2008]

I rode on this train 3 years ago. it's really fast.

[theultimatekoopa2]

You know this isn't actually supersonic, right? Sonic speed (speed of sound) is 1,225 km/h.

[akinkhoo]

too bad no one is going to be building another maglev line. bullet trains are here to stay after China's insane order of 600 trains. there is just no way you can build as many maglev as bullet train.

[Arurnal]

China is far ahead in technology, even the US seem to be stumped by this, in 10 years time China will become richer than the US, the way they are going right now....

[rantanamo]

@Arurnal

China is not far ahead in technology or even ahead. This is an area the US simply has not been involved in.

[mourantell]

i would rather look through the window then look at a number, but maybe it's just me

[2AgentSmith2]

and who built it?

the germans

[LHPpcTutorial]

@2AgentSmith2 You are right.Chinese only broght it to install it on their railway

[koboo87]

@LHPpcTutorial its chinese's original technology

[917893678251]

@2AgentSmith2 No the germans built it and lent it to china to install

[2AgentSmith2]

@917893678251 thats exactly what i said. i said the germans built is. so why are you saying "no the germans built it"?

[madeinsony84]

americans are fat, ugly and lazy people that's why the US is on the decline.

[LouAu]

The reason that they are getting stick is the gold-damned REPUBLICAN..

YES GOD-DAMNED REPUBLICAN!!!

[liangconghui]

Hope more and more normal Chinese people can really enjoy the speedy and comfortable of the high-speed train.

[1xosue]

Greta ride but if it cost$15 billion for the Chinese to build this rail system then you know with all of the labor unions in the U.S. it will cost $150 billion to build here so it would not be feasible for our country. Government Motors builds cars in China for a lower cost then in the U.S. yet makes bigger profit just because they don't have to deal with all of the labor unions.

[warpspeedfd]

It's a shame that a problem like this limit our ability to expand and grow as a country

[rantanamo]

@warpspeedfd

never stopped us from spending much more on freeways.

[curlytops7]

dam!!! that's 268 MPH!!! pls correct me if im wrong.......

[curlytops7]

we need that TRAIN from LOS ANGELES to LAS VEGAS......

[warpspeedfd]

Yep! You are correct. I am with you 100% that we need this train system from LA to Las Vegas. Man, I could be going to Vegas every other week. Anyhow, feels good to be the fastest man in Orange County, unless someone else in OC can claim they have gone faster.

[quangluu96]

@curlytops7 1 mile is ~ 1.6 km

[rewill17]

2fast

[airr916]

O snap, its maglav train, HOLY CRAP!

[airr916]

now thats what I call a good transportation service people...^^

[donnamariealba]

FAAAAST!

[rinpowestar]

Tis the Shanghai Meglev. I rode it and felt the g-force on its only right bank towards the city.

[killersnake666]

max speed of 267 mph (430 km/h), wow!!

thanks for the video, thanks for showing both the speed and the window view!! coool!

[warpspeedfd]

Thanks for the positive comment. Also note that this train ride is only $5USD!! I don't know any rides in the US that will take you over 200mph for 5 bucks! I wish we have this train system in my home town. I can get to LAX from Santa Ana in less time then it will take me to get to the train station..LOL

[RicanMan16]

this train is going around 240mph

[warpspeedfd]

I am one of the luckiest SOB in Santa Ana, CA to ride this speed-demon at a speed of the Bugatti. Life time experience....

[worIdcitizen]

Wow! Just wow! If we have this today, imagine what we gonna have in another 100 years...

WOW! 430 km/hr!!! That's sick! I could visit my grandma in 5 minutes!!! In about 2100 it will be a snap! I can go to my grandma's town in a second! LOL

[warpspeedfd]

Las Vegas was talking about adapting this German technology train system to take folks from LA to Las Vegas in less than 30 minutes. They would be twice richer if they have this train system and a much safer Highway 15. I have seen so many death accidents on hwy 15. This is the safest and fastest way to get from point A to point B.

[davidluk8]

how much to take the train ?

[RicanMan16]

15 billion it said it on a video i saw before this one

[warpspeedfd]

Out of 15 billion how many get to experience over 240mph?? I guess I'm one of the fortunate. German technology is out of this world!

[warpspeedfd]

It only cost $5USD!!!! A hot dog in Disney Land cost $5 bucks. I wanted to do it again but my boss (traveling with me) couldn't handle the speed. He almost had heart attack.

[davidluk8]

Really $5USD ? It's really cheap. Even for local Chinese, it's affordable.

[OttawaRocks]

Too much talking. You don't need to sell it that much - you ruin the video when you do - let the scenery do the talking.

[samsungorange]

wow.....wht a speed

[cwtrain]

Very cool. But it would have been nice if you just pointed the camera out the window and called the speeds out.

[warpspeedfd]

I actually thought of it but didn't think anyone would of believed me if I didn't record the speed limit. Besides, I only had a couple of minutes to plan of how I wanted to record the amazing experience. Also, the camera that I used did not react to dark and sunlight quickly. Anyhow, thanks for the comment.

[LenovoFightsPoverty]

Amazing, great video.

[euripvid]

german engineering ... the test-track was near my old hometown. 18 years ago i have driven in it with my school-class already with 420 kmh ...

[Reqrezentin]

This is 10 km/h more NANANANNA! :P
