  • @Trillasecond I read an article about the 10k clock recently. The guy that owns amazon is funding the construction of it, and based on what they said about how it is being built, where it is being built, and what it is being built out of, and how it works, yes, it can run for 10k years, assuming an asteroid or something does not hit the general area where it is at. (the thing in this video is probably a scale model, the actual 10k clock is several hundred feet tall, and imbedded in a mountain)

  • @Ihatetoprocrastinate by mayan clock, I think you mean mayan calendar. They didn't have any clocks.

  • @Trillasecond Yeah but the Mayan clock will try to destroy the world in 2012. This clock will fight the Mayan clock, and protect us for 10,000 years.

  • NASA claims the the Mayan calendar is extremely accurate.

    Can the same be said about this thing?

    LOL 10,000 years? If this thing was made by General Motors or even worse, made in China, it'll require maintenance in much less than 5 years.

  • ill see it again in 10,000 years
