I have been thru Norway’s many many Tunnels ,from 10 to 25 km ones . and the tunnel btw Copenhagen and Malmö under the sea.

I’m always in Awe and appreciation of the monumental efforts and money behind those man made marvels . Humans can do wonders , when they’re not fighting or in war .
Being an engineer looks and sounds like an exciting job. Engineering affects everything in everyday life. Engineers have to get it right or it will affect life in a negative way. Engineering is a cool profession to pursue.
if you use a world eater it also gets rid of the liquits. And because they are above 11 Blocks (they just want to dig through mountains not under the sea) they doesn't have to account for obsidian.
I think if anything, it's these kinds of things that people will remember our time for. Probably computers too, and unfortunately AI too. But this is such an amazing feat, and a lasting impact that everyone will be able to witness very clearly. Is it good? I don't know. Is it impressive? Incredibly so.
Yeah, I was surprised how cheap it was when he said that. In the US we just passed a bill to allocate 1 _trillion_ dollars to such projects over the next few years, so 7 out of that is like nothing, and yet we still have almost nothing as useful or ambitious in the works, smh.
I am struggling to understand this freezing the sludge business at the end, yes I know there is now a drilled hole through the frozen solid ground - but what happens when the ice melts and that ground returns to sludge?
you cant be from europe or you have never seen the alps or you wouldnt ask this rather silly question :D even if trains could climb the steeps and it would be possible (which it isnt) then the route would be like 10 times as long and not straight in anyway so trains would be way slower.
@@Tacticuz the one not being able to read seem to be you, i wrote about the railway tunnel which is 57km long, not about the auto tunnel that was built in 1980.
Length wise yes, but I think the Brenner base tunnel has a wider diameter than the Gotthard. Being the length only 2km different it makes the Brenner an impressive tunnel for the amount of rock displaced.
The Italian guy seems like a cool dude
we’a gon ta freeze tha soil

At the expense of sounding lazy, any elevator that allows you to avoid stairs is Five Stars.

Hammond can only answer that.

I'm surprised Hamster didn't crash his motorcycle during the visit
😂🤣😂
Is it reasonably priced, tho? 🤔
It's because there was no finish line
HAMSTER!!!??
Lol gold
Hannibal and Napoleon would have been thrilled.
Actually this tunnel is quiet small, but it seems like its big because Hammond is the host!
I'm gonna go back in time and try to explain to Hannibal that in the future we just dug a huge tunnel the alps to get to Rome
English with italian accent 😊😊
AWESOME video!
People say that Italians don’t end everything with “ah” but it seems like they do.
Nobody ever said that
I love this channel ❤️

When you find out your boss has a accent of indian engineer
I'm a Indian and I can confirm that's not a Indian accent, I don't know which accent it is but it's hurting my ears
@@apatriot6421 Hey I could say the same about indian accents too!
It is Italian accent.
Wow italy is beautiful, i want it! I must conquer italy!
That dude’s accent made the indian accent sounds more adorable
no
You are excellent sir
That's a big hamster tube
Just use a tunnel bores they work in 1.16.5

Cool!
In Georgia, Metro Tbilisi tunnel some places are done same way 70 years before by frizzing soil.

Contrary to what the name suggests, that machine is actually quite interesting :P

Go to the 6:40 mark. I believe they will have the final lining installed in the frozen area by the time it thaws.
This freezing thing is just to help them dig it. After that there's already a wall
They are putting Walls into the drilled holes, that are waterproof and able to hold the mass above them.
How is the structure even stable in that sludge? Unless they build a pile foundation down to solid rock
Did the freezing work?
I'm suprised Azula is not commanding this machine
Borats brother !
That thing scream zombie apocalypse
When it melts after being frozen they'll be in trouble. Obviously, they didn't think it through.
I'm joking.

Real life flying machine
The lenght of the machine is same as four olympic size swimming pools... Why didnt he just say 200 meters? :D
I live near an entrance, a safety tunnel. In the town near by 5 people have died from asbestosis.
The thumbnail looks like a giant chocolate chip cookie machine.
It's not a big tunnel, Hammond just discovered a mouse hole.
Machines made in Germany 🇩🇪 💪
How do they frezze a large quantities of liquid nitrogen in short periods of time
Well since 78% of air is made out of Nitrogen I think they got it going

Id iz wondeRful-a how a they freeZe a the soil-a
I was imagining the Italian bloke to be a part of mafia...no offence here...but can u imagine???🤣🤣🤣
I wonder why they didn't sucks up all the sludge, make a tunnel at the bottom, fits in the lining, and fill the top with solid dirt
How? Where would the river go?
you cant remove soil under a river or otherwise river would collapse down
The real answer to your question is: “It won’t be completed, ever”… France knows it, Italy knows it..that tunnel is useless
It's not the turin lyon tunnel, is the tunnel di base Gottardo, another one in the east
And why didn't they do this above ground? They could build special train tracks that would do the job at 1/10 the price and time.
Because making train tracks on hillsides is extremely expensive and needs alot more maintenance
Have you seen the steep mountain terrain in Italy?
Imagine trying to haul a freight train up a 10% grade.
Super steep mountains and trains don't mix. Also above ground means more environmental damage plus disturbing towns and local roadways.
If you build a roller coaster, sure...
you cant be from europe or you have never seen the alps or you wouldnt ask this rather silly question :D even if trains could climb the steeps and it would be possible (which it isnt) then the route would be like 10 times as long and not straight in anyway so trains would be way slower.
I not like it
record braking 55km long? the gotthard railwaytunnel is 57km long. did i miss something or is he just stating wrong facts to make it more impressive?
The gotthard tunnel is 15km long mate, the only one stating wrong facts here is you
@@Tacticuz the one not being able to read seem to be you, i wrote about the railway tunnel which is 57km long, not about the auto tunnel that was built in 1980.
The new tunnel will be connected to an already existing one. Then it will be a 64km long tunnel.
Length wise yes, but I think the Brenner base tunnel has a wider diameter than the Gotthard. Being the length only 2km different it makes the Brenner an impressive tunnel for the amount of rock displaced.
Once completed the Brenner Tunnel will connect to the existing Intaltunnel. Combined it's a 64 km continuously underground route.
Yeah dad took a shat in one of those tunnels once ...
