The
3,150m long Lefortovo tunnel in Russia is the longest in-city tunnel
in
the entire
world. It is nicknamed 'The Tunnel of Death'.
See for yourself why. There is a river running over the tunnel, and water
leaks through in some areas. When the temperature reaches 0ยบ (as it does
during the Winter in Russia ) the road freezes and becomes as slippery as
hell. The result is the attached video which was taken during a single day
with the tunnel surveillance camera.
Congratulations to the dual-carriage bus driver - imagine the passengers in
the back! What a ride!
The next time you complain about traffic, remember this video.....Russian
Engineering!
