A Tunnel under the Strait of Gibraltar?

Want to go to Africa from Europe?
But you don’t want to fly or take boat…nor go through the Middle
East
. Normally you would be
stuck – but give the world a few more years and then you can take the train.
That’s right – the train.

Spain and
Morocco are looking at
building a tunnel under the Strait of Gibraltar
for shipping both freight and passengers. It never ceases to amaze me what
humans can do now days. I mean, think about it – a tunnel that stretches 38,670 meters (126,870 feet) and drops 450
meters (1,476 feet) down
. Crazy!!!
