I already bought the popcorn and just waiting for the next Thunderfoot video...

This and the "Solar Freakin' Roadways" are the absolute pinnacles of human stupidity and ignorance...

...and let all my wishes be granted so fast: https://youtu.be/VrbstnzbhZA

I like this video too. This guy seems to be an urban planner or civil engineer, and he gives some realistic criticism if you can get past the jokes (which are also good)

I'm surprised the vibration shown in the video was not addressed at all. I thought maglev trains, without friction, would ride smoothly even when accelerating.
