First Hyperloop Passengers: BUSTED!

People continue to throw millions of dollars at Theranos v2.0.

The latest crap to come out of the empty promises machine of the hyperloop is this ‘ground breaking’ test. They show that you can put someone inside a vacuum chamber in an oversized coke can (nothing new) and move up and down on a skate (nothing new) at 100mph. These haven’t been challenges for over 50 years! We’ve been putting people in oversized coke cans and have them move around at 6km per SECOND in orbit. In this case, they didnt actually travel at all! They got out of the tube at exactly the same place they got into it! Why are they taking a victory lap over this? I do however have to give them a tip of the hat for not killing anyone here. If anything had gone wrong, these people would have died. If the capsule had ruptured, these people would have died, and if the brakes had failed, they would have smashed into the end of the tube (also fatal).

Hi Phil, just spotted your Hyperloop debunk-squared video on YT, thought I'd take a look at Dunning & Kruger's channel to see what other misinformation they were peddling - they sure are Elon Fanboys.. But, here's a thing: "your" video has more dislikes than likes - you don't see that too often. Their other videos seem to have the 'normal' ratio, so I'm thinking people (like me) went there specifically to leave a dislike. Love your channel btw, keep up the good work..

probably THAT IS THE AIRLOCK ! ! LOL

You know, yes, I am also skeptical about this, and it really is not clear why they triumph over this ... give credit to these early pioneers, they are brave)

Do they not have airlocks? Please don't tell me they pump the entire tube down every time they want to send someone back and forth... Why haven't they added any more segments to their tube?

They'll want to hold onto any patents for the time when we need to connect distant settlements on the moon or mars.. Do patents even last that long?

Imagine what kind of waterslide you could build with a cool billion dollars. I mean god-dayum!

This has been the funniest gimmick by Elon and his Hyperloopers yet. What really tickled my ivories is that they were still trying to keep up the Hyperloop ethos after the test 😂. Really? The first "mass transportation of it's kind in 100 years".... yeah, we could also build the world's biggest waterslide, sludge it up with crude oil, put people on that and say the same thing. The Hyperloop ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE IT'S A MORONS IDEA. Why do it hard when you can just do it safely?

I especially like the windows...

Elon gave up on it for a reason. Same reason he's using Tesla cars in his tunnels. Depressurized miles of tubes is incredibly dangerous.
