Wow... You know there are a lot of people with nothing better to do in their spare time WHEN....

This looks crazy, but for some reason I see safety as being too big of an issue for me to use this thing... Cost as well...

5000mph?
How do you counteract your bones and internal organs from being kablamo'd into your chair?
And stopping, that'd be a right bitch.

Gotta shit?
TOO BAD!!

haha yea no doubt

Sounds like a good idea.....but I'm not sure if the 5000mph is true.

Jet fighter pilots have to go though a very strenuous training to withstand the g forces that they experience in the jet.
I'm not sure the average person will be able to handle the same!
Unless everyone just blacks out and then when they get to the other side they have people who revive them...

lol, apparently our friend here has never heard of the future. such transit connections will be definatly created as technology advances. this is a wonderful demo of what could be. time put into creating such a page is the only way to preview the common person into the ideas of tomrrow. grab a latter and climb out of this box your so deeply sitting in.

There are some other interesting "future" stuff on that site there

City in a pyramid: http://media.dsc.discovery.com/conve...teractive.html

City in the sky:

I'm sure I'll be in my pine box by the time these are built though...

You don't see safety being an issue 35000ft in the air doing 1000km an hour, in a hunk of metal with thousands of different parts? and thousands of gallons of Jet A fuel?

Did I say I trusted aircrafts either? Don't go putting words in my mouth, thanks.

ya i know.. but they were showing how they would make these "superheros" ... like by adding a gene from spiders into humans would give them the ability to make spider silk.. like theyve allready have these goats that they added the spider gene too.. and they can extract the spider silk from the milk... but its still not as strong as real spider silk....
... and they have this crazy growth hormone that would make u big like hulk... crazy stupid shit.. but it was an interesting program...
