“Virgina”I can’t be the only one who read that wrong
at least it wasn’t Vagina…
I screenshot it after your comment your right
It was Virgina. I saw it!
@Luke good for you how did it feel
Still says Virgina on the Notification video list. Which I read as a typo for the state yet thought about the word vagina. Virgin didn’t even cross my mind until I started reading the comments and then looked at the actual video title. Then realized this was just about an idea at best. All and all I missed most of the actual story and don’t care anymore b/c my attention span is crap and I’d rather comment than continue listening. So now that I’ve amused myself I’m clicking off of this video.✌️🏾😉
They need to fix the Title “Virgina” lol
Virgin is the name of the Corporation. Virgin is a noted brand and I’ve traveled Virgin Airways many times. I would actually love to use this if it’s available in our area. HOWEVER…. the deplorable (GOP) shut down the High Speed Rail system in California. American is so 3rd world country with our infrastructure now. We still use late technology from the 50’s for our air traffic controllers and some airports use systems that haven’t been updated since 1949! They voted it into non-existence. Yet, they keep touting oil oil oil. When electric cars are selling like cracker-jacks. GOP is killing our country. Trump tried but I hope that people start to have hope again!
I think someone did it on purpose haha. The people at CNN aren’t exactly innocent. They’re just as dirty minded as the rest of us.
@Adam Adams LOL…so true….so true!
Adam Adams Same company owns Virgin Airlines.
Reporter: from city to city in a pub
Me: you have my attention 👀
it’s called a train. they already exist.
Don’t order a Guinness. It takes longer to settle than the trip.

Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.
I think the interns were in charge of YouTube today
Hope they know where they’re going….
last time I was in Virginia I was asked five times over the year (including from the lady at the Fedex Shop) “Did you drive here?” (From Australia!!!!) SERIOUSLY!
Omg, that’s sad…..
LMFAO
Ida said yeah raft and everything
What?! The level of education in America have always been a kind of unkind joke from people here in Europe, but what you write here and the news I’ve watched the last years, where they have elected a TV-personality as PRESIDENT, and are so easy to manipulate, all of it is really not funny anymore. If it *really is* that bad, then something should be done with the school-system, shouldn’t it?
@Elvenkind
Sadly education isn’t a priority for the government. If it were, many of them would never be elected.
These next 10 years are going to be insane.
They already are. Since Trump, reality doesn’t seem to be more than a footnote to fantasy.
So, nothing was built. Someone just created a rendering.
@drakedge2000 There is no point to build train in a tube , when you can do the same speed without the tube , examples in Japan , France , Germany and China .
USA seem to be the only country impressed of this , when there are states where Amtrak does not even consider to slowing down , when there are no train stations .
@nyuu Paradise 288 MPH, yeah, so slow.. I can walk faster.. jeez.. it’s Biden’s fault.. omfg..
@Pete Lind Though they are not hyperloop, we in Washington State have planes, trains and automobiles. Drive 15 minutes to the train station and can be in DT Seattle in less than 30 minutes, go to a SeaHawks game (back before C19) and many other forms of mass transit.
Of course, taking the risk of catching the ick, so the numbers are down recently, but…
@thangnguyen02 will Japan’s train can go 224 miles per hour so it only going 64 mph faster not a big deal and they didn’t have to build a vacuum tube for it
@thangnguyen02 TGV did a world record at 357.2 mph
“Virgina” is a good name.
But I prefer “Love tunnel”
Untravelled love tunnel

Anybody else read this as “Virginia hyperloop”?? 💀
https://youtu.be/oCOiAPH-Z2o 20
Nope. I thought it said vagina.
It was actually Virgina. They changed it before I could screenshot.
Hope I get to see this in my lifetime

Plan to live for a million year?
Are you less than three weeks old?
Why does he say it has ‘the flexibility of cars’?
There’s no way.
Cars can drive everywhere, even off-road.
And you can do that any time you want, without a schedule.
I know he tries to sell his company’s stuff in a positive way, but he shouldn’t claim wrong facts.
I don’t quite understand what he means by ‘flexibility’ there.

It is stark the difference between the artistic conception pod to the actual pod size
Yeah you know when they tested planes I’m pretty sure they didn’t start with something the size of a 747 either
@Evan Sowards they were also not selling it as space shuttle
“Could feel like, might look like”….’could’ and ‘might’, not ‘does’ because it’s never gonna happen for a plethora of reasons. You should be more skeptical, do some real journalism and ask a competent engineer or scientist instead of a mouthpiece who’s experience in transportation technology amounts to bouncing from job to job every few years, being awarded leadership/management positions such as chief financial officer in transportation companies that he didn’t really earn, and thus (according to wiki) did and continues to do a p!ss poor job and has been creating a reputation for concealing past MRTC project details and delays from lawmakers and subsequently lost contracts. You’re being duped and playing pawn. “BUT MUSK BILD ROKIT SHIP!” ….appeal to authority. He didn’t build anything, the team he hired did…but after how many years and competitions these guys still can’t find a team who can figure out how to send a pod car through an underground evacuated tube at anywhere near the speed they claim they would have reached a long time ago? I wonder why?
Tens of Thousands of miles of vacuum tubes? 👍🏻😉 👌🏼 That’s going to work.
Just build bullet trains like the rest of the world. Musk is a fraud. Branson bought in.
@bLoWc16 This technology has been around for more than 100 years. There’s a reason it has never been implemented.
@bLoWc16 One bullet and the entire system would be destroyed, killing everyone in it.
Competent Scientists and Engineers told the Wright brothers that they couldn’t fly with their invention.
can create digital video so now not here, but other country will do this so would be amazing for people go and come from or school .
Thunder, Thunder, Thunderf00t Hooooo……
@tjampman Hahaaha for real this is funny
https://youtu.be/9ZCXwIx_kMY
That reminds me of taking the hovercraft from Dover to Calais. Something like riding one of those mechanical bull contraptions for rodeo stars with the noise of an El train. It only took 45 minutes, and every second was memorable.
Came here to write this!
@Comrade Jason Of course.
@IMBwildrd the quotes are unnecessary. It’s basic engineering and physics. The hyperloop will never pass the sci-fi stage. Or they’ll discard near-vacuum and will be yet another TGV/Shinkansen/Maglev.
Snake oil, that’s all it is at the moment.
Everything Richard Branson touches, dies.
US cannot even build a high speed rail and they want to build a BS hyperloop ?
Seriously ?
US railway history is a trip.
It’s our corporate Masters that have prevented the high-speed rail, when real Americans come together there’s nothing we cannot achieve
Yep , you hit the nail in the head , there is a reason why this 100 years old idea has never been made , its been BS from the start .
USA cant even make oil pipes so those would actually hold the oil inside , DAPL is leaking hundreds of barrels everyday and thats pretty simple pipeline .
Now imagine taking that 2´ pipe , that Americans cant weld properly , and increase it to 10´ diameter , what are the odds that Americans can get that to hold an vacuum ?
– “I love to say that you’d be able to travel at 500 mp/h without spilling a drop”
That’s an expectation, not luxury. You are not spilling anything on an airplane or a current train either. Anyway, if they can keep the ticket prices as low as they are hinting them to be, and other promises hold too, this will be popular.
The US would rather spend money for wars and the military than upgrade their infrastructure.
CNN, your credibility is seriously suffering by giving 7min airtime to such a scam!
I guess they are running out of money so this PR push is part of their begging bowl to the credulous.
