Russian Tunnel of Death - YouTube:
""
by koltregaskes on Jul 15, 2009
The 3,150 m long Lefortovo tunnel in Russia , is the longest in-city tunnel in ll 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 videos 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...Russian Engineering at its best!
