a pacific crossing is more likely

Well there's a limit to how much we can improve air travel. In the end, you still have to lift all of the planes and the cargos weight during travel. That takes energy. This project would probably stand for a thousand years, mitigating the huuuuuuuuuuuuge energy cost of its construction

I bet Cthulu approves of this tunnel. Commuter's souls always have the most potent levels of despair, and now the tunnel will bring them straight past his house!

@adawilkes1 If something is worth £100 and after a period of time it's value is £50, then £50.00 has been wiped off it's value and effectively disappeared. Money is not like energy which cannot be created or destroyed. the money need to build this tunnel rules it out as a feasible option, at least at this point in time. I wonder if they could do a simple refurb of the channel tunnel to convert it into a mag lev train in a vaccum?

Time for a resource based economy!

this is too far fetched but it would be so epic if the world was some how connected other than aircraft and watercraft some day.
-
never gonna happen

If this is constructed imagine how much people would be put to work.

Oh....wow. 00:35- I live there :)

think about a ticket to ride this thing? Yeah i don't think ill have money for it if its ever built, or if im alive by the time. cool idea tho
