Russian Tunnel of Death
RUSSIAN TUNNEL
The 3,150 m long Lefortovo tunnel in Russia , is the longest in-city tunnel in all the 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 nearly 0°C (like it does during the Winter in Russia ), the road freezes and becomes as slippery as hell. The result is the attached video which were 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 .... a tribute to Russian Engineering!
