Elon Musk's Vegas Loop... Debunking.
BrianHG:
:palm: Come on... Seriously... Talk about a dangerous waste of money...
BrianHG:
Take a look at that full disco-christmas lighting effect. I would bet that those with mild motion sickness in those tunnels will either vomit or have seizures in those tunnels, even at 29mph.
That embarrassing junk of a project needs to have those dangerous tunnels filled in with concrete, or, repurposed as a sewer system.
Alex Eisenhut:
I thought this was a solved problem. Now to find a Jenny Agutter lookalike.
BrianHG:
I bet that Logan's Run movie prop could go faster than 29mph...
Alex Eisenhut:
Like Star Trek doors, the prop probably relied on off-camera operators to push them along... probably like a dolly.
I think the travel tube from Space:1999 is closer to what the Hyperloop shoulda been.
Maybe someone can email this to Elon...
