NYC to London in 54 Minutes (Tunnel That Shouldn't Exist)

Author:

Ever wondered why there isn’t a tunnel connecting the US to Europe? On paper, it sounds possible, but in reality, it’s an engineering and financial nightmare. From extreme depths and crushing pressure to the sheer cost of such a project, we’re breaking down the real reasons why this idea will probably never happen.

  1. The only material you could use to build an underwater tunnel is the same material the Emerald Tablets are made out of! If they actually even exist is the question! haha

  2. I think even if this could be done, there's no way it would be straight through the ocean. It would probably go from Canada to Greenland, Greenland to Iceland, and then Iceland to Scotland. That is to say, it would probably be broken up into multiple legs where it goes back up to the surface before returning to the ocean, and that would still be cheaper than building the whole thing on the seafloor. But seriously, travel times to Europe via plane are not that bad with a Concorde. That was much easier to do, and people decided they'd rather wait eight hours than pay for a faster option. I imagine this would be even more expensive than a Concorde ticket and would be closed within a few years even if they did build it.

  3. There are far better ways to depict and describe a theoretical transatlantic train route. Rail Canada already runs from Montreal to Campbellton furthest North. Bridging Nova Scotia to Greenland, Iceland, through the Faroe Islands en route to Denmark or Scotland would be more reasonable to service those places, not to mention it's the shortest route. Forget tunneling on the seabed. Building a tube that floats at anchor is far more sensible, but this idea was an afterthought in the video.

  4. Building a bridge in Europe where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic is almost impossible and you can see how far apart they are . The depth , fault lines/earth quakes, very powerful currents are some of the reasons. I think its called Girbralter.

  5. Everyone talking about the engineering challenges to dig a tunnel under the Atlantic, the depth, pressure, sea bed, geopolitical issues, financial issues, ROI, carbon footprint and everything other than the fact that 3,000 miles in a few hours means a train doing an average speed of 1,500mph… In a tunnel! Get real please.

  6. It would be best to winch the continents together. Ask Elon, he'll tell you it's possible. Oh wait, maybe nobody still wants to be a face to face partner with the current USA regime. Nevermind… but hey, ask Elon anyways, i'm sure we all need a good laugh

  7. Hmmm… you have do decide, what you mark in your maps of Europe. Your are mixing up the EU and the continent but at the same you show the UK separately but include Iceland and Switzerland to the EU flagged territory? What does this map and coloration even mean?

  8. 👉IMPOSSIBLE TOO POSSIBLE 👉techniques ,electronically and PowerPoints ,exploring and implementing but need to try first nearest to an island 🏝 amazingly and idealistic structures and building skills @LittleBearBBQ.Food_Original yours thoughts. Map Pack .

  9. DUDE, SUBMERGED FLOATING TUNNEL IN A VACUUM, , JAPANS MAGLEV ARE ALREADY WORKIBG ON THE IDEA
    , TO FILL THEIR NEW MAGLEX LINE WITHE HELIUM. SO A VACCUUM SUBMERGERGED 3 TRACK FLOATIN (100METER BELOW) TRANS ATLANTIC TUNNEL, WILL MAKE THE TRAIN GO 7000KM/H AT IT'S PEAK.
    VELOCITY MEANING 45MINUTES NEWYOU- BOSTON – LONDON/PARIS TRAVEL TIM UNDER 1 HOUR.
