Nice looking plan.

But is it viable?


Walking with dolphins: the Bering Strait tunnel


I have my doubts that it would really look like that.
But then, what do I know?

This video is about the possibility of bridging the Bering strait .




The real life scenario would probably be closer to high speed trains traversing the span . Rather than families strolling barefoot with marine life over head.
A MASSIVE engineering project , which would only be attempted if financially viable IMHO.

Travelling from the Americas into Europe& Asia or vice versa, via train would be amazing ..... but an extremely costly project no doubt.

Well it's very pretty, but ...

I'm pretty sure Bering Straight waters aren't tropical aquamarine ...

Not to mention glass and active tectonics are a bad combo.
