"what is your favourite unit of measurement?"
"Tom Cruises"

[JScot]

I've visited Norway a few times and I've always been blown away by the quality of the infrastructure in remote areas. Grand infrastructure projects are used to connect small settlements, subsea tunnels used in areas of very low population density etc. It's very impressive.

[andrewsealey]

I love how the Norwegians push ideas and engineering to the limit.

[JaredOwen]

Great video! I'll be interested to see how this progresses

[kramphillips]

Just imagine when one of these ships blows their horn in this tunnel. 👂💥

[Jonas-cdhf]

106 million Tom Cruises really caught me off guard.

[baronvillanueva]

They should carve giant statues of vikings into the rock at each end.

[roundlake]

Might take longer but kinda sad that they plan to build a huge tunnel like this in just 4 years while my city cant make a new roundabout in less then 5 years...

[obidean]

B1M never disappoint with their word plays haha

[justinstrik]

Norway: we have run out of reasons to build road tunnels
Norway: hold my aquavit

[dlebreton]

I really enjoy the B1M videos. The imagination of builders, especially those developers who drew up the plans for the cruise ship tunnel are amazing! Bravo.

[Hoddevik]

I am from Stadt. The vikings did indeed drag their boats over the mountain. They put logs infront and under the boat and dragged the boat forward that way. The ocean is pretty bad sometimes and its not weird vikingboats would get smashed.

[cupguin]

Good things ships never get stuck in things.

[jordangarrison]

Is anyone else thinking that 300 Million is a bargain for this thing??

[icollectstories]

What this needs is thin sheets of waterfalls on entry & exit and back-projection screens inside. You could do anything like a submarine adventure or a portal to an alien world!

B1M: Learning from the Suez incident
Me : ahh yess learn from the lesson.
B1M: the trade consequences and INTERNET MEMES can spiral.
Me: ahh yeah right. The memes 😂😂😜

[maffru]

Tom cruise as a unit of measure. I’m going to use that whenever I can from now on.

[chidoriufumaki]

I get airline tutorial vibes from all of these amazing videos. I’d definitely want to see a B1M channel on international flights

[howardkerr]

Norway must be an incredible place to live, the infrastructure projects alone are some of the most ambitious that I have ever seen.
Something like this would never even be dreamed of in the U.S., much less built.

Love all the puns they actually made me chuckle.. thanks again B1M for another great video 😊
